And, there doesn’t seem to be any published list of “things Community Watch is responsible for.” I do agree that my fees are very reasonable for what I get and I mostly give this problem no thought. But some accountability for this program would be nice.
Here is the August 2026 Community Watch Quarterly Report presented to the PWAC. Not a list of what they are responsible for but a list of what they felt was worth commenting on.

Other reports have mentioned the House Check and Adult Watch programs and success stories that resulted form noticing newspapers in the driveway.
