Surprise Lately • June 26, 2026

This broadcast from Surprise TV on June 26, 2026, highlighted community safety and upcoming city events rather than formal government meeting proceedings. The Surprise Police Department introduced a Safe Exchange Zone outside their Civic Center Police Station to provide a secure location for child custody exchanges and person-to-person transactions, monitored by video surveillance. Due to its popularity, a similar exchange zone will be added to a new police substation opening in fall 2027. The program also announced the 2026-2027 Surprise Arts season featuring live performances and encouraged residents to prepare for the monsoon season with safety tips. Additionally, the city reminded residents about consumer fireworks regulations ahead of the July 4th celebrations and promoted the city’s Independence Day event with music, food trucks, and a fireworks show. No procurement, contracting, or budget decisions were discussed in this broadcast.
