MDPD Citizen Advisory Committee
February 12, 2013
Devon-Aire Villas # 1 Homeowners Association
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.
