The Homewood Police Department took home the win Friday night in the National Night Out Battle of the Badges softball game, defeating our friends over at the Fire Department. That's the second series win of the year for HPD over HFD!
A special congratulations to #14 Officer Teter who, before the game, stepped up to the plate and claimed the Home Run Derby title! 
Huge thanks to everyone who came out to support National Night Out. These events are what make our community strong - neighbors, first responders, and good times all around!

The City of Homewood, The Police Department, and Homewood Animal Control are excited to announce a new partnership with the Greater Birmingham Humane Society. The city contract for strays will be handled by GBHS at 6227 5th Ave N, beginning Monday (October 5th) until the new building opens on Sydney Dr. The hours of operation are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM; Saturday 9:00 AM - 11:30 AM; and closed on Sunday. The phone number is ( 205) 591-6522 , if you are looking for your animal. You will be able to pick up at 6227 5th Ave. N in Birmingham. The fee schedule is as follows: If your animal is unaltered, there is a $50.00 fee; $30.00 impound fee; $20.00 rabies fee (if you do not have proof of rabies vaccine); and a $50.00 City fee. There are also some new procedures associated with this change: Homewood will no longer respond to wildlife calls (i.e. raccoons, possums, snakes, coyotes, foxes, etc.). Citizens can call Complete Animal Removal, and they will take care of the wildlife issue. Call: (256) 455-0000 Homewood will not pick up strays after hours; this will be handled by Animal Control on the next business day. Any after-hours calls will be for extreme emergencies only.
