📢 Exciting News! The City of Beaumont has a new podcast. 📢Check out our first episode of the Beaumont Beat, a new avenue to connect citizens directly to the Executive Office. Listen along as we discuss hot topics and developments for the City of Beaumont straight from the source. To kick things off, we talk about the tragic national crime epidemic in America and answered the age-old question, “Is Beaumont Safe?” We highlight the incredible community programs the Beaumont Police Department does throughout the year, the new technology and training we’re investing in to ensure a safe city for all, and how the citizens can get involved. We also addressed how we’re working to improve EMS response times and the innovative solutions Beaumont Fire-Rescue is working towards, like starting a Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH) Program and telemedicine to better serve the community.Welcome to our pilot episode featuring City Manager, Kenneth R.
