Get Involved with the Citrus Heights Business Watch

The Citrus Heights Chamber of Commerce is launching Citrus Heights Business Watch, a program designed to bring local businesses together around safety and crime prevention. Similar to a neighborhood watch, Business Watch creates an opportunity for businesses to stay informed, share concerns, and work together to support a safer business community.


Here are some ways Citrus Heights businesses can get involved:


Share your perspective: Complete the Chamber’s brief Business Watch survey to help identify the safety concerns, experiences, and priorities of local businesses. Your feedback will help inform upcoming Business Watch discussions and activities.


Attend an informational meeting: Learn more about Business Watch and how to participate at one of two upcoming informational meetings. Choose one of the upcoming meeting dates below and click the date to register.

An online participation option is also available. Registration is required to receive the virtual meeting link.
