Security Report By Michael Kuehn On March 22 the annual meeting of the MSBTU Board held its annual budget meeting at the Whiskey Creek Country Club. The meeting was attended by all the current Board members, our liaison from Lee County, Josh Malo and his assistant, and two residents. As reported previously our two major projects for the year were both completed. First project was power washing and painting the Summerlin Road wall. It was delayed multiple times by the need to repair damage done to the wall by vehicles crashing through it. Second project was the replacement of the four large light fixtures on top of the posts at the McGregor entrance. Again, I urge you to drive to the intersection after dark and see the difference the new lights make. Changing the old amber glass in the lights with clear glass changes the entire effect of the lighting. At this time, we have no major projects planned for the next year. Some trees will be planted as replacements and a few trees will be planted in new spots. As of the meeting, the cost of the security patrols, which is our major expense, has not been increased by the sheriff. The millage rate collected by the tax collector, 1mil, remains the same.

This month we had 10 traffic stops for stop sign violations, only two of which resulted in citations. A deputy was flagged down by a resident concerning a broken window at her residence. It was unknown how it got broken. He advised her that if anything else occurred to call Lee County Sheriff’s Office immediately. A deputy was called to a residence about a missing package. The resident was notified by the delivery company that the package had been delivered but the resident never received it. The resident needed a case number to file a claim. The number was supplied. There was approximately a month between notification of delivery and calling the deputy to get the case number. This is another example that you should report something as soon as it occurs. The deputy stopped a golf cart being driven by an underage driver. After educating the driver about the law he let them go with a warning. They might not be so lucky the next time and it could be an expensive lesson. As always keep your outside lights on and overhead garage doors down. Lock all vehicles left in the driveway and remove all valuables and garage door openers from them. PRSRT STD US POSTAGE PAID FT MYERS FL PERMIT 751
