I would again like to remind everyone to call your guest in to the guard gate. Remind them they need a valid
driver’s license to enter our community which must be shown at the guard house. To all club members
when having food at your functions remind the caterer that their driver needs to produce a valid driver’s
license upon entry or they will not be allowed to enter and make the delivery.
Apropos of that, our guards are following the instructions of the board. Neither you nor your guest’s
abusing them will be tolerated. By the same token, it would be very much appreciated if neither I nor any of
my Security Committee were disrespected or hassled in any by any Rainberry residents. In a recent
incident, I was verbally abused by one of our residents.
Please remember we are just volunteers with a vested interest in keeping this community safe. You are
responsible for yourself as well as your guests.
Just a reminder once a ticket has been issued security has no jurisdiction over the matter if you want to
discuss the ticket please call code enforcement. (Harvey Wolff chairman).
Finally to everyone that thinks the rules here in Rainberry are stupid and our security is nonsense feel free
to look at the Delray police blotter and see what has been going on at Rainberry Lakes last month compared
to our community.
KEEP YOUR CAR KEYS CLOSE AT HAND
Put your car keys beside your bed at night.
If you hear a noise outside your home or
someone trying to get in your house, just
press the panic button for your car.
The alarm will be set off, and the horn will
continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.
This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you
come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of
this:
It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and
requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most
everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your
battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key
fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage If
your car alarm goes o! ff when someone is trying to break into
your house, odds are the burglar rapist won't stick around...
After a few seconds all the nei ghbors will be looking out their
windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal
won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while
walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the
same way there . This is something that should really be shared
with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse
crime.
This would also be useful for any emergency, such as a heart attack,
where you can't reach a phone. If you carry your car keys, you can
activate the car alarm in case you fall outside to alert people there is a
problem.

Subject: Crime In Lake Ida: October 09
After looking at the weekly crime data, I had to share this with
you.
In the last 2 weeks of September, and the first two weeks of this
month, there has been a significant drop off in the crimes
reported in Lake Ida. In fact, just one larceny was reported so
far in October!
This trend coincides with the start of the Volunteer Patrols, if I
am not mistaken. I want to thank those who have given their
time to make Lake Ida safer! We do the very best we can with
the current state of the Criminal Justice System. However, with
great ‘suspicious person’ calls from your residents and now the
high profile Volunteer patrols, the difference is dramatic!
I am proud of the partnership you have fostered with the Delray
Beach Police Department, and I use you and LIPOA as a model
in my discussions with other HOA Boards.
Thanks for the support, involvement and strength that you add
to our City.
Lt. Marc Woods
