The islands will be shorter and more narrow. This reduces hinderances to neighbors backing out of driveways and also provides more room for traffic and for snow removal.

Tips for homeowners:

At night leave the front and back lights on to provide more visibility around your residence. Close your garage door even when home.


If you will be gone for an extended period of time stop the mail and paper delivery so people don’t know that the residence is unattended. Also, arrange to have the garbage container placed on the curb of the normal pick up day.


Talk with your neighbors when you will be gone so they can help monitor your area.


Call DMPD 283-4811
and give them your information if you will be on vacation so they can provide extra patrol.
Report any suspicious activity that you see, things that look out of place or activity where it appears that somebody may be casing the area.
Remember that some burglaries occur during the day when people are working, sometimes when we see people during the day we don’t think much
of it.

We don’t want people to be nervous or paranoid we just want you to be cautious and involved in looking out for one another.
