Over the last 4 weeks we have also noticed an uptick in burglaries and thefts occurring in other nearby communities, specifically Devon-Aire Villas 4 & Devon-Aire Villas 5. It is important that members remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity or individuals around the community. Residents having homes that have canal access are more exposed than the rest of our members since they don't have the advantage of having the rear of their homes watched over by members of community so they should take measures to secure their rear doors, windows and sliding glass doors. We are asking all members reading this to please speak with your neighbors to get the word out regarding this incident. If you are renting out your unit, please pass this information on to your tenants. By getting the word out, we ensure that whoever is responsible will be caught.
Please stay alert for any suspicious activity. The basic rule of thumb is if you see a possible crime in progress, call 9-1-1. If you wish to report suspicious activity, please call the non-emergency number at (305) 476-5423. Please pay particular attention to individuals loitering in the guest parking areas or other parts of the community and if observe anyone circling around the community that should not be there, walking in and around homes or just someone who seems out of place, please contact Police. Miami Dade Police is authorized to ask anyone that does not belong or have business in the community to leave the property. After you contact Police, please let us know as well by using our Contact Us page or by calling us at (305) 859-1462 and leaving a message. Messages left at this number are monitored 7 days a week by all members of the board.
