[rha] RHA Zoom Meeting, HUGs, Blood Drive & Sweepers

Published: Mon, 02/19/24

Hi ,

As expected your President's Day holiday is wet and it looks like we will get about another inch by the end of tomorrow.

We should be mostly dry and pleasant until next Sunday, when the rain is expected to return.

Have a great rest of your holiday!

Hope to see you just before 7:00 p.m.

Note: We plan to test Zoom meetings throughout 2024 to determine the best mix of in person and online meetings.

Sweepers (Plan to) Come Rain or Shine!

As Monday is a holiday, next Tuesday (Even sides) and Wednesday (Odd sides) the sweepers plan to be here in Rossmoor sweeping up the leaves and other debris on our streets. Even if it's raining, the sweepers currently plan come by according to our contractor SCA. Help keep our beaches clean, please move your vehicles. Thanks!

Your Vote Counts!

The State has a primary election coming up on Tuesday March 5th and everyone should plan to vote (just mail in your ballot now while you are thinking about it). If you are not registered, there is still time. Register with the county here and be counted!

Hugs For Clubs

It's getting to be that time of the year when our PTA's, Boosters, and Clubs start their dine-out for donations (or dining for dollars). As we get the information we will post if on our HUGs page so you can check if you can help our kids before you go out to eat. Thanks!

Restoration Advisory Board Meeting

One of the things that makes Rossmoor special is the community engagement we share with both our neighbors and our friends and agencies in the surrounding area. Here's another opportunity to find out what's happening...

The Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station's Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) meetings have a lot of good info about happenings with the wetlands and environmental cleanup efforts at the NWS. The public is welcome to attend.

New Red Light Cameras in Los Al

Three new red-light photo enforcement cameras are slated for installation in the near future.

This initiative aims to enhance the existing system at Los Alamitos Boulevard and Katella Avenue, completing traffic monitoring for all lanes and approaches.

The intersection was originally selected based on the high traffic volume, as Katella Avenue at Los Alamitos Boulevard is recognized as one of the busiest intersections in all of Orange County.

The installation is expected to be completed mid-March. During the initial 30-day monitoring period, violators will be issued a warning letter notifying them of the violation. After the 30-day period, citations will be issued to violators.

Neighborhood Watch Block Gathering?

Our Rossmoor's Neighborhood Watch Team always monitors what's happening here. And in a nutshell, not much. The public data put out shows that it's the usual:

Suspicious people (our community sees something and says something to law enforcement to check out) Yay us!

Burglaries: (a follow-up post usually indicates that it is a call-out for someone's alarm sounding) - precautionary alerts - another yay us!

Thefts: These are what are usually called "crimes of opportunity". Don't leave valuable things in your car, enticing someone to break in, lock your car doors, and close your garage - nothing says "check out what's in my car" more than "hey the door's open!"

Printed reports tell one story. Follow-ups on the reports make the picture clear. Our OCSD North Patrol is more than law enforcement, they are Our Rossmoor partners. Always willing to share info, the Our Rossmoor NW Team is able to share their insights, in a way that nobody is left wondering:

Who else is a great Rossmoor partner?

You!

Yes -- YOU! Through your participation in the RHA Neighborhood Watch Program, small bits of information are passed along. The difference between information and communication is that we share. Two-direction conversations - for the clearest pictures.

That equates to UNITY.

Reach out to your block captain and let them know we are here if you'd like our support with your group's beginning of the year launch (or re-launch) "Block Gathering." Just let us know and we will get you on the calendar.

And if you need to be connected with a captain (or want to volunteer) same - reach out here
