Dear Resident, Please take a few simple steps to help protect your property and reduce the risk of theft from motor vehicles: 1. Remove Valuables
Never leave items such as bags, wallets, phones, laptops, or tools in your vehicle – even if hidden. Thieves often check glove compartments and under seats. 2. Lock Up Every Time
Always lock your vehicle and close windows, even if you’re only leaving it for a short time. Double-check that your doors are secure. 3. Park Smart
Whenever possible, park in well-lit, busy areas or secure car parks. Avoid leaving your vehicle in isolated spots overnight. 4. Use Additional Security
Consider steering wheel locks, alarms, and tracking devices for extra protection. 5. Report Suspicious Activity
