Community Watch will report to Community Standards if a yard is exceedingly unkempt. Otherwise, not sure what they do besides drive around. I've yet to see or hear of them calling in on any issue besides yards on their own. I have seen them radio/call in something when stopped by a resident. Sorry, they are as much security as the gates are to my mind -- a deterrent to those who don't know better but little use otherwise.
