You can help deter crime in our community with a few easy tasks. For example, keep your car doors locked when parked outside your garage and remove valuables (including your garage door opener). Additionally, you should keep your garage door closed when not in use. Thieves can easily enter a garage to steal items such as lawn or sports equipment and tools, or enter your home if you keep the door from the garage to your home habitually unlocked. Let's all work together to keep our homes, property, and family safe!  

You can easily report concerns about sidewalks and streetlights online with these helpful links:

Homeowners and their guests are reminded to observe all speed limits and to drive through the neighborhood safely. Vehicles have been seen driving well above the speed limit, which is dangerous to all concerned - the driver, pedestrians, bikers, etc. Please observe the posted speed limit at all times. 

Homeowners are reminded the county is now recommending a 16' clearance height of tree branches that hang over the street to accommodate larger trash pickup vehicles. Branches scrape the trucks, damaging their paint, and can break, causing a hazard to pedestrians and drivers. If your oak tree extends over the sidewalk, it should be trimmed up to at least an 8' clearance, and 16' over the street. Violation letters will be sent to properties with trees in need of trimming.
