Recently, we have had some damages done to HOA property which appear to have been done by kids roaming the property. Here is a brief list:
- Someone tore the bag dispenser off of one of the pet stations;
- someone else spray painted the word “Blood” on a street and in several other locations;
- someone has been stripping the limbs off of our young trees;
- someone keeps knocking over the round cable box covers;
- someone keeps taking the covers off of phone boxes
I am sure there is more, but that is all I can think of for now. If you see kids tearing up stuff, stuff that you pay for with your dues, I would hope that you say something to them or at a minimum, see where they live and let us know.
School will be letting out soon and kids will be bored and getting into mischief.
So sorry this is happening. The other day 2 boys climbed over my fence and then on to the car cover and onto the patio next door and climbed in a broken window that has been broke nearly 2 years. It seems that there is several children over there. Where they come from I do not know. The Lady that lives there is not home often
Easter Sunday 3 Police cars came and knocked on the door and no one answered. They knocked on ours and I told them that they were there,but never got an answer.
We think someone will keep doing this until we install cameras and keep up with modern tech to help secure out homes.. We pay enough to be able to install some $200 cameras around the neighborhood
Eunice, We have tried that several times already and our cameras have been destroyed. And, no, we do not have the money to provide 24 hour surveillance for 22 acres. The HOA has never been responsible for security as outlined the the CC&R, section 3.8 Security. Some miscreants do not care if their picture is taken, especially when they do not live within the complex and cannot be easily identified. We have cars that park here, people who come here to steal, burgle, or buy drugs (or to sell them).
A large portion of the responsibility of our combined security falls on all of us to call the police if someone looks suspicious.
