Keep Rossmoor Safe - Slow your roll to 25 MPH
Hi ,
It looks like we will be wet for the next few days - like very wet.
If you don't have to go out, it is best to stay at home.
Never drive through flooded streets - turn around, don't drown
If you have automated sprinkler, now is a great time to put them on a 7-day (or longer) delay. The ground is already wet and you can save some money on your water bill. Plus, we are likely to have more rain on Tuesday into Wednesday.
Sweepers Come Rain or Shine!
Tomorrow is Monday and that does mean the sweepers will be here picking up the debris on the odd sides of the streets in Rossmoor. Tuesday the even sides get cleaned up. Even if it raining, the sweepers will come by. More your vehicles please. Thanks!
Great Planning!
It was great planning by our wonderful school district to have a scheduled Inservice Day tomorrow, Monday February 5th. Who wants to
deal with all that rain? In any case, do rave safely tomorrow not just because of the rain, but because our kids will be out of school. Stay safe and dry!
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.
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
Recent news about the 40th Infantry Division, headquartered out of our very own JFTB in Los Alamitos. Sometimes in Rossmoor, while we might see our troops from the base less, they are far away, doing more.
Congratulations to our troops, serving and training in Kuwait, on their recent accomplishments. We're proud to be your neighbors.See the story here
