Staying safe in your community - police suggestions

1) Turn your lights ON and keep them on in the front and the rear of your home.

2) If you have an alarm system, USE IT!!! Turn it on when you are home at night and when you are away - even if it is to go to the clubhouse or the tennis court.

3) Call your police department to notify them if you see suspicious vehicles or persons
trespassing. 561 688-3400.

4) If your alarm is set off by accident, call to report a false alarm - 561 688-3695

5) Call your alarm service to check and update your system to see if it is functioning.

6) Be a nosy neighbor and keep an eye on your neighbor's front and backyard.

7) Lock your car and take your garage opener out of your car, if you park it in your driveway.
8) Don't let other cars or vans "piggy-back" through your security gates.
