Neighborhood Watch Info

Listed below is the information I presented at the last board meeting plus the answers to the questions I presented to the Crime Prevention Specialist that manages the Neighborhood Watch program.

Numbers to call

Vacation Check: (949) 644-3681

Neighborhood Safety

* "The best crime prevention device ever invented is a good neighbor"
* Always be aware of your surroundings
* Use your outside lights; if possible put them on a timer
* Also use your inside lights when you are on vacation
* Let your neighbors know when you are going on vacation
* Call the NBPD Vacation Check when you go on vacation (949) 644-3681
* Pick up any newspapers or flyers delivered to your neighbor's home who is on vacation
* Area crime trends are posted at www.nbpd.org, Call for Service, #53 is our area

As I committed to the board, If a homeowner does not want to call the PD directly, I will make the call. Jim Casey has also volunteered to be my backup if I am unavailable. Our phone numbers are published in the directory.

Andi Querry is willing to make a presentation to our homeowners on Crime Prevention and Safety in our neighborhood. I recommend we invite her to the September election meeting since it always brings out the largest gathering of homeowners.

Sorry for the long email. I will give you the next update after this month's Neighborhood Watch meeting, 5/18/10.

Thanks,

Lou

Stucco Repair Inventory - Friday May 7

The association's contractor, Ioan Creanga of First Construction, will be on-site this Friday May 7 at 10am to take an inventory of needed stucco repair issues throughout our HOA complex. If you have spalling, flaking or broken stucco areas on your unit, that you would like looked at, please advise and he will be sure to investigate. Note: if you have a stucco issue in your front entry patio area, please leave your gate unlocked that day so the contractor can access. Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us make our HOA look even better!
