Please Be Aware - Crime is of the Opportunity!
I live in The Village of Sunset Pointe. I called Community Watch when a truck with a concrete name on the side was finding folks outside of their home and asking about doing tree/bushes trimming. I watched them do two yards one day. The next day they came back and did at least one more yard - I had to leave so I did not see the rest of that day. The following work day (Monday) they came back again and found another Customer by approaching folks in their yards. Why would anyone let three guys with a concrete pickup truck do your trees??? Community Watch told me to call Community Standards which I did. Community Standards did nothing and told me they do not have TIME to come out to situations like this one. We have no solicitation for the entire community for a reason - see each gate entrance. But the reason I mention this is the fact everyone of the neighbors allowed the one guy into their house while they paid them. Makes you think about what the guy might be checking out while in the house. But I really want to know what Community Standards is doing that is more important than enforcing the rules we have in place. My house was broken into in my previous city by crooks ringing doorbells to see who would answer. Even if you do not want to answer the door. Go close enough to the door and yell "who is it"? Otherwise you might have them in your home if you do not yell a message to them. They will at least know to keep moving down the road! Alarm Signs are not that useful - buy the real thing. I got the real alarm after my experience!
