In this edition: Truck stolen from
neighborhood resident...crime prevention tips.
RESIDENT'S TRUCK STOLEN FROM
DRIVEWAY
A truck was stolen from the driveway
of a Pasadena Estates resident
sometime during the evening hours of
November 18 or early
morning hours of November 19. If you
have any information about this
crime, contact the Town of Davie
Police Department at their
non-emergency number, which is
954.765.4321.
The incident took place just across
the street from a prior,
unsuccessful attempt, by a potential
intruder, to enter a house of another
neighborhood resident. The
perpetrator was apprehended due to
the quick thinking of the resident.
While crime can strike at any
time, Pasadena Estates residents
need to take extra precautions. With
no guard gate or regular security
patrol, our neighborhood has been
subjected to criminal activity by
outsiders for years. There have been
numerous incidents of intrusions
into homes.
It is not always possible to
keep your vehicle in your garage,
but when you can, please consider
doing so. Keeping garage doors open
when you are away or at night is a
dangerous practice. Leaving
newspapers, mail and garbage containers
outside your home for extended
periods are signals you can avoid.
The Town of Davie Police
Department offers help for those who
are on vacation or away on business
trips. The police website offers the
Homeowner Vacation Watch
Program, which can be
accessed
here.
The Police website also offers a
daily bulletin of arrests, incidents
and citations. It can be viewed
here. A review of that database
offers a good perspective of the
criminal activity impacting the
Town.

New False Alarm Ordinance In Davie
The false alarm ordinance for
the Town of Davie was recently amended
by the Town Council. The false alarm
program will be managed by a private
company, Public Safety Corporation.
On-line registration is available for
the public.
According to the
Davie Police Department website, "The
agreement furthers [Police] Chief Lynn
and [Fire Rescue Chief] Montopoli's
commitment reduce the number of false
alarms responded to by both police and
fire enabling them to better serve our
community." The agreement will reduce
Town staffing.
Public Safety
Corporation (PSC) will provide customer
support from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday.
According to the
Police Department website, "All of Town
of Davie alarm users are required to
register their alarms under the
ordinance. This includes all
residential, business and government
locations within the Town of Davie
boundaries."
The new ordinance
imposes increasing civil penalties for
false alarms.
Look for
the "Alarm Registration" link on the
police and fire websites. Those
registered will receive a user name and
password to check their individual
accounts. Here are the links to both
first responder sites:
