Security Committee Update

Recent Crime and Financial Support

As you can see in the crime stats chart, a recent uptick in thefts in the neighborhood has led to the highest year-to-date crime in the area in recent years. While our goal of minimizing burglaries continues to show progress from the concerning peek occurrences in 2015, 2018 mirrors the trend of increased thefts and auto-thefts.

Meanwhile, we’ve seen a decrease in financial support for private security patrols. With less than $55,000 raised for the current year, giving is at only 75% of this time in 2017. Total donations collected make up only 60% of our budgeted goal.
