Lock it! Hide it! Keep it!

A Reminder from the VG Safety Committee
At a recent Village Green Safety Committee meeting, LAPD reported on “Crimes of Opportunity” in the area surrounding the Green. Officers described how criminals move through an environment without a specific planned target, but test for opportunities for easy access, like unlocked car doors, windows, and garages.
 
Officer Norris of Green Knight Security reported similar incidents where potential criminals wander through the Green seeking to steal from cars, patios, and units. In several incidents, unlocked cars or open windows allowed access to the victim’s property.

Our community includes open access points, multiple paths to wander through without attracting suspicion, and a garden that may encourage a misleading sense of security among residents.

So be aware, be vigilant, lock it up, and keep your porch lights on at night!


January 2024 Board News

Compiled by Patrick Comiskey
​Fifty-eight people attended the Village Green Board Meeting held on January 23, including 9 Directors, management and staff. It was Director Joe Khoury’s last meeting as a Board member—he’s retiring after the coming election—and his years of service were acknowledged with much gratitude by the community and fellow Board members.

​The topics of discussions and decisions included priority projects for 2024, replacing the association's law firm, the safety lighting project, replacing our laundry contractor, and repairs to some signage around the property.

A new column from former HIGHLIGHTS editor Lucy Fried
It was a wonderful honor to be invited to write a recurring column for HIGHIGHTS, and I can’t think of any topic more import-ant to launch with than safety. ​I want to think that our Village is immune to crime, but of course it cannot be and never has been. In fact, back in the very early 2000’s, Don and I were burglarized, and I still remember the feeling of violation when I found my drawers and closets ransacked and precious items stolen.
