I have recently been receiving some mail stating some of our residents have not been gotten alerts although they are on our mail list. If you are not receiving these alerts you might might want to check with your Internet provider to find out how their server treats mail sent out in volume.

There are many servers that will not accept mail that has been sent out in bulk, the server treats it as spam. This is why we also post all alerts on our website.

Unfortunately, there is not much I can do from our end. You might also want to check your Internet Options under tools and change your security level. This might allow you to receive our alerts. 

To Our Phase II Residents:

Phase II of Eagle Palms has grown substantially since our Neighborhood Watch was originally formed. We are having issues in your part of our community that only the residents can solve and desperately need your help.

We are looking for three(3) residents who are willing to step forward and become Block Captains which is an extremely important role in our Neighborhood Watch program. Block Captains are the first line eyes and ears of our community and a tremdous deterrent in reducing or prenvent crime. Won't you please help us in making our community a safer and better place to live.

Call Don Maidlow at (813) 741-1328 for further details or to volunteer.

I received a message from a resident concerning a problem with some deliveries made by UPS.

There are duplicate address numbers in both Phase I and Phase II resulting in deliveries being made in error to the wrong address.

The sad part is by the tiem the error has been discovered there are missing items in some of these packages. We do not know at this tiime if tthe packages are being tampered with at UPS or elsewhere. Please be alert to any mis deliveries of items not belonging to you or your family and do not open any package not belonginging to you.

MAIL TAMPERING IS A FEDERAL CRIME!

I received a call on Sunday Sept. 13th regarding a person soliciting residents in Phase II in an effort to install door viewers. This individual is claiming to be authorized to install these viewers.

The resident became suspicious when this person began wandering around her home stating he could also install other security devices on her door to the garage which is where the alarm panel is installed.

The individual in question is Caucasian, late 50's or early 60's with gray hair. He was wearing a hat, and dressed in shorts. He also had an orange colored apron with pouch, making the homeowner think he was associated with Home Depot.

At this time I do not know if this individual was checking for security weakness or someone selling door viewers. Neighborhood Watch has an Eagle Palms resident to install these devices. If you encounter this individual, please call your Neighborhood Watch Coordinator at (813) 741-1328 or the Hillsborough County Sheriff at (813) 247-8200.

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT LET THIS INDIVIDUAL; ENTER YOUR HOME! WE HAVE A STRICT NO SOLICITATION POLICY.
