SAFETY AND SECURITY FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD

There has been an increase in crime throughout all of Silver Lake. In my own neighborhood, attempted child abduction, attempted car jacking at gun point, robbery while walking to the mailbox, break-ins.

I've met and spoken with Rosie from the Positive Energy Group and have information about The Silver Lake Security Association and Select Patrol. For 24.00 a month per household, Select Patrol will patrol your neighborhood Friday and Saturday nights, 9pm to 5am. As membership increases, Select will patrol 7 days a week. They have a special vacation service, 24 hour alarm response, nighttime spotlight service. For those living on a stair street, Select will be walking the stairs.

Select Patrol is a licensed company that has been in business for 13 years. If you'd like to speak with Darin directly, you may call 323.644.1014.

If anyone is interested in being a Block Captain for UNTAG contact Rosie at slsa@sbcglobal.net. UNTAG is Uniting Neighborhoods to Abolish Graffiti. You monitor your area and call 311 to report any graffiti. If you see tagging in progress you call the LAPD. Rosie can get you started.

As a reminder, the Positive Energy Group, Silver Lake District, will be having a Community Safety Meeting, Weds. June 21,
6-7:30pm at the Edendale Public Library.

From Rosie:
"Your ideas, concerns, and suggestions are of extreme importance. We can work together to stop the violence in its track. We do hope to see you at the Edendale Library, please let a friend and neighbor know about this gathering of great folks accepting ZERO TOLERANCE in any type of crime."

Remember, Working together we can keep our wonderful neighborhood safe.

"Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishment toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results."
