Keeping our community safe

AUTO BURGLARY is a crime of opportunity; vehicles are easy targets and often contain property that is attractive to thieves.
Large parking lots and neighborhoods with a lot of on-street parking can be prime targets for theft.
Use the easy, inexpensive tips below to reduce your risk.

WATER TIPS ( For Freezing Temperatures:) With recent temperatures dropping below freezing overnight, the Water Utility Authority reminds residents to take the following steps to avoid water loss and property damage related to frozen pipes:-Don't turn the heat all the way down when leaving your home for extended periods.-Maintain an internal temperature of 55F.
-Insulate exposed outdoor pipes and hose bibs/faucets and remove hoses from them
-Shut down and drain any sprinkler systems that haven't yet been winterized
-Know the location of your emergency water shut-off valve.Customers requiring an emergency turn-off can call 505-842-WATR (9287)
