Burglary at Devon-Aire Villas #1 West 2/12/2013

On February 12th, 2013, there was a reported burglary at a home located at SW 122nd Ct & 109th Lane.  The incident took place at around 9:20 PM.  The thieves jumped the back fence and broke down the patio door to gain entry to the home.  

We again ask that all residents remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities that they observe in the community to law enforcement as well as our management company.  This is especially important near empty homes which have been abandoned due to foreclosure.   Please keep your front porch lights on at night and if you are an end unit with an area light please be sure that it is in working order.  Proper lighting will make the community safer and can help deter crime.

MDPD Citizen Advisory Committee

On January 30, 2013, several members of the board attended the Kendall district's MDPD Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) meeting to address some concerns from the recent robbery within Devon-Aire #1 East. At that meeting a presentation was made by Sergeant Joseph Bermudez related to programs that the Public Information & Education Bureau sponsor such as the Citizen's Police Academy, D.A.R.E., Citizens' Crime Watch, etc... One of the more interesting tidbits from that meeting was that citizens may call the Public Information & Education Bureau and request a crime vulnerability assessment of their home which can help owners better secure their homes to deter break-ins. Homeowners interested in participating in the program can call them at (305) 471-1900 or visit their site by clicking here. Homeowners can also inquire about participating in this years Citizen's Police Academy which President Jeff Kaslofsky and Roger Alvarez plan to attend. This course is free to the public and will provides hands-on training and insight into police activities.
