Built around Ventura and Sepulveda

Sherman Oaks is one of the busiest stretches of Ventura Boulevard, with restaurants and shops packed near Sepulveda, two large shopping centers, medical offices and a dense band of apartment buildings north of the boulevard. South of Ventura the streets climb into the hills toward Mulholland. Off-duty officer requests here are often about crowds and parking on the commercial side, and about private events and quiet streets on the hillside.

Common Sherman Oaks assignments

  • Ventura Boulevard restaurants and bars. Weekend nights, private buyouts and busy holiday evenings.
  • Shopping centers and retail. Parking areas and entrances during the holiday season and sale events.
  • Schools. Arrivals, dismissals, games and evening events.
  • Medical and office buildings. Lobbies and garages during busy hours or after an incident.
  • Hillside homes south of Ventura. Parties, fundraisers and gatherings where parking and arrivals need managing.

Parking is half the job

In Sherman Oaks, problems tend to start in parking: a crowded garage behind a restaurant row, a school pickup line that backs up onto a side street, or a hillside party where guests park on a narrow road. We write post orders that put the officer where those problems start, with clear instructions on what to watch for and who to call. For garages and lots overnight, the AI Vehicle Surveillance Program can cover the hours after the officer leaves, remotely viewed by LDG.

Recurring or one-time

Off-duty police officers are sworn officers working private assignments on their own time, under your post orders and their own department’s off-duty rules. LDG sources and vets them, keeps recurring shifts covered and sends one invoice. Neighboring Encino has its own page: off-duty police officers in Encino. More on the off-duty police officers page and the Encino & Sherman Oaks page.
