This Week in Nellie Gail Ranch
From the Week ending February 17, 2023
Crime Prevention Workshop
Thank you to Chief of Police Captain De La Rosa and Crime Prevention Specialist Alyssa Rabas for leading the Crime Prevention Workshop at the Association Clubhouse last night. We had a standing room only turnout of 121 attendees watch the presentation and interact during the Q&A and discussion portion of the meeting.
Attached are the handouts provided by the Orange County Sheriff. Of particular interest is the Neighborhood Watch flyer with information on how to start a Neighborhood Watch. Over half of our attendees last night are part of an active Nellie Gail Ranch Neighborhood Watch group. The benefits of being part of a Neighborhood Watch group are apparent by the constructive feedback they shared.
Also of interest is the lead flyer on the attachments related to the interactive Crime Mapping program. This is the site recommended by the OC Sheriff for up to date information on recent crimes occurring in the community: CrimeMapping.com – Helping You Build a Safer Community . Sites like Personalized SpotCrime Report are report based and contain a lot of false alarms and unverified reports while the Crime Mapping site contains Sheriff’s Department confirmed and categorized criminal activity.
The other handouts contain information on personal safety, home security tips and a checklist to evaluate your home security with suggestions for how to “harden the target” and decrease your chances of home burglary.
Please continue to report suspicious people and activity to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department
