We have activity in the neighborhood. That is not wanted. A resident reported this on the BWCA Facebook page.

 

She is working on collecting license plate numbers now. It has been going on for several months. A old brown car parks at the end of panorama dr. Turns car off because of load muffler sound waits on one of 4 different SUV's. Starts car drives down panorama to swingley, parks brown car, one of two persons get out of brown car and gets into suv, they drive around block in suv and come back to brown car and person then returns to car and they leave. This happens about 3 times a day. This was just brought to my attention by neighbor and would like to make others aware and keep an eye open.

 

She is reporting this week with the license plate numbers that she has.

 

She is hoping to have all plates involved so that not only are police aware of who it is but also, she doesn't want them to move their business to another area.  If they see a police in area watching the area they will leave and not get caught. Unless we provide as much info as possible. Thank you just posting this has help bring awareness to neighbors. And the eyes (so to speak are bigger ). Calls came in last night. Due to my posting and the brown car had entered the neighbor hood from Boulder Dam. Going down Eagle head. So I am hoping people continue to not only read from this sight. But also post so others can help make our neighborhood a safer place for our kids to live.

#1] This needs to be reported to the police. Ask for increased presence. This is the most sensible and number one thing you should do. Check, however, to make sure of your privacy. Giving your name to the Police may be required and will let them know you're serious.


#2] Talk to your neighbors and other property owners in the area about the problem. They may have useful information to relay to the police.


#3] Start a "Neighborhood Watch" in your area. Chances are, you are not the only one concerned with this problem. They can't help you if no one calls them.


#4] Be sure all neighborhood house lights are illuminated. If not, talk with your neighbors about keeping the lights on!

Turn on your outdoor porch lights, garage door light or lamp posts every night. Keep the neighborhood well lit. 

It helps alot when EVERYONE does this!

Update: On Sunday at exactly Noon an about 1985 Brown Mazda RX7 with a very loud exhaust stopped on the other side of our house on Swingley and within 2 minutes a silver newer Chevy Suburban came around the corner and both vehicles left. The Suburban never stopped. SO... maybe they are starting to move somewhere else.
