IT WORKED FOR OUR NEIGHBORS!

MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS SAW THE CHANNEL 9  NEWS STORY ABOUT THE BIG DRUG RAID, IN OUR NEIGHBORING COMMUNITY, LOCATED NEAR THE END OF SPYGLASS ST.

     This raid also involved, an attempted murder of one of our Sector 2 deputies.As I have been warned by law enforcement officers--''THESE ARE NOT NICE PEOPLE''
  This shut down of drug activity was due to the GOOD NEIGHBORS watching and calling law enforcement for suspicious activities. Below you will find some tips as to what to look and watch for.

 Do you have a drug house in your     

neighborhood?
Drug houses don’t just happen in other
neighborhoods. There are drug houses in all
types of neighborhoods. There are four things
that make a drug house:
• Product
• Buyer
• Seller
• Location
Most neighborhoods have very little control
over Product, Buyer, or Seller. Drug dealers
look for Locations where neighbors do not
communicate and isolate themselves. This
makes it easy to intimidate those neighbors
that do notice drug activity. Drug dealers like
neighborhoods that say, “It can’t happen here.”
Money is a key element for the drug dealer. If
they establish a drug house in a neighborhood
where kids and adults have money to buy
drugs, business will thrive.
What are the warning signs of drug
activity in the neighborhood?
Do any of these sound familiar?
• Excessive foot traffic to and from a house
or property
• Loitering in or around a house
• Frequent and unusual traffic patterns such
as: Stop - Enter - Leave
• Traffic frequently stops and a resident
comes out and talks briefly with occupants
of car
• Threats of intimidation connected to a
residence
• Open exchange of drugs and money
• Gang activity in the neighborhood
• Graffiti on structures in the area
• Sudden increase in crime!

LATEST INFORMATION FROM OCSO SECTOR 2

Orange County Sheriff's Office Crime Prevention Unit

All:

As we head into the summer months and school will be let out June 4th, 2014, let us all take a few extra steps to reduce crime in our community. 

Crime Prevention is a tool that you can take with you everywhere, the store, bank, church, work etc. While you are going about your day, and you see anything out of the ordinary or observe a crime in progress, pick up your phone and call the Sheriffs Office. You may call either 911 or our non-emergency line 407-836-HELP (4357). Ensure you talk with your neighbors and inform them of the activities in the neighborhood. 

As a community and a neighbor, we can work together to lower these numbers. I challenge each and everyone of you to make a difference and lower these numbers for the next monthly report. 

These numbers can be reduced by taking that extra moment to ensure valuables are removed from your vehicles, garage doors and windows to your homes are locked. Do you see a vehicle(s) parked in a driveway to a home you know no one lives in? Call it in to law enforcment. Let's take away any opportunity for criminals to commit crimes. 

If you have any questions please feel free to call me or e-mail me at any time.

THE ''CLOWN CAR'' SCENERIO

''BACK IN THE DAY'', many of us seniors, remember going to see the circus when it came to our town. The arrival of the big top and its performers is certainly something we remember most fondly.
 We remember the wild animal acts,elephants, trapeze artists and of course the clowns? They made us laugh.The one clown act that I remember in detail was the little, silly car that would come sputtering out and stopped with a loud boom. After the bang, an untold number of goofy clowns came piling out of the very small vehicle----1--2--3--4--5--then we lost count. --How many clowns were in that car?
  We have a similar ''act''in our Fairways community!--- BUT,its not funny! We have untold numbers of people living in some relatively small spaces.There seems to be an increasing problem of unapproved, unchecked, residents, moving in with others! Reportedly, we have 7-8 people living in at least one residence. A while back Priscilla said at a board meeting that they depend on residents to notify them of ''move - in''violations.----Folks we have to do it!--Go to the office or call them--even better notify them in writing.
      FAIRWAYS WATCH PRACTICES, WHAT IT PREACHES!

 For further insight into this problem, see my ''GUEST LETTER'' in the Digital Eagle''
  

YES FOLKS, THEY ARE IN HERE!

This attached photo, taken at 3 am,Monday morning near the front of the park says a lot. Here is a young no name, prowling around a home with no obvious good intent.---WOULD IT NOT BE NICE TO HAVE A REMOTE LIVE AGENT SECURITY GATE SYSTEM?--We could have had one at a very reasonable cost.----WHY NOT?--Because the homeowners committee claims there was an election voting it down {nearly 20 years ago]-- and HTA would rather spend money on a ''watchamcallit' like we have at the Greenbriar.
  We are also getting an increase in pool complaints for young outsider students and family members of the outside golfers.
 WE CAN NOT AFFORD A POOL MONITOR EITHER!

         GO FIGURE!!

THE UNKNOWN AMONG US

Your neighbor hood watch coordinator is is in the 15th year of residency in the Fairways. For 11 of those years I have had the privilege and pleasure of working with the watch program and the Orange County Sheriffs Office. During this time I have seen numerous examples of criminal activity and  problematic community social issues.Many of the social problems involved unregistered,and unapproved residents.---''the mystery move ins'' are always with us.
 HOWEVER,---I have never seen as many unknowns, walking our streets and using our amenities as we have now!--I see as many as 5 to 7 cars, parked overnight, at a 2 bedroom house!----I see very young  people who claim to be residents--yet when asked, say that they are not registered.--further more they will not give addresses.
  CASE IN POINT---This AM I saw two young,''unkept'' males, walking---I did something that I am not supposed to do,--I profiled them, and stopped and talked to them. [a George Zimmerman no no]--They said yes they lived with their mother, but would not give me moms address---One said that he was 21 and had a job, and did not have to register anywhere!---RED FLAGS. I then pulled back and waited--They went to the ''snack bar''---I waited and quietly followed them to a specific address. ---All of this was sent to Priscilla and Lena. This was a civil community issue, not one that law enforcement can deal with.
 WHAT CAN WE DO??
 CALL THE OFFICE--CALL THE OFFICE --WRITE LETTERS--WRITE LETTERS!---If we do not help clean up our own back yard,---we will be just another DEERWOOD.
 REST ASSURED FAIRWAYS WATCH WILL DO ALL WE CAN TO ALLEVIATE THIS SAD SITUATION. WE WILL NEVER HESITATE TO EVEN CALL 911, WHEN APPROPRIATE!

THE SAD SAGA OF OUR AREAS HOMELESS

Some of you ,may have noticed the construction clearing on Rt 50.The area in this photo is close by beside Colonial Woods development.This particular area is being cleared for a large retention pond, not for resident construction.
 Take special note of the debris pile, in the center of the photo. This separate pile is the remains of the homeless camp, which was in the woods ,next to Fricke Dr.. 
 WE HAD LONG HEARD OF A CAMP ,NEARBY OUR COMMUNITY--WELL FOLKS HERE IS WHATS LEFT OF IT!
 In previous conversations with Captain Meade of OCSO,--He had confirmed that the camp existed. The Captain also said that he had a special deputy that monitored the camps in our area. This deputy has become personally acquainted with some of the homeless living there. The Captain has told me several times''there are some good honest people among the homeless,--they are not all criminals''.
  Its like the old saying---''EVERY BODY HAS GOT TO BE SOMEWHERE''--Where the folks went to from this camp, is any bodies guess!
  If you see anyone suspicious, walking into our community, call 911 and let the deputies check them out---They are qualified to do that,---we are not!

SICK--SICK--SICK !

THIS AM , FAIRWAYS WATCH RECEIVED SEVERAL PHONE CALLS FROM UPSET RESIDENTS. THESE CALLS WERE ABOUT A NOTICE ON THE MAILBOX BULLETIN BOARD.
 THE NOTICE WAS SUPPOSEDLY AN ANNOUNCEMENT saying that--''A MEXICAN BILLIONAIRE , HAS BOUGHT THE FAIRWAYS'' !
       The notice was cleverly designed to look like a newspaper clipping---upon examination--it became apparent that this was a DEMENTED attempt to be an April fools joke on all of the residents.The stupid trick, went so far as to say Governor Scott was involved, and the Mexican billionaire was going to turn Rt 50 into a MEXICAN RIVIARA.
  Folks, we do not need this kind of CRAP ! Some of our residents were extremely upset over this sick attempt of some ''LOON'' trying to be funny.
  This is another example of why we need more and a faster means of communication in the community.
