January 2010

During the month of January, I met three more residents in Beat 10. The first residents I met were Carlos and Maria Olivares.  Mr. and Mrs. Olivares were outside speaking with Mrs. Olivares’ father who was leaving after a visit. While speaking with them, they informed me that they have lived there for about one year and just loved the neighborhood. Mr. and Mrs. Olivares have not had any concerns but were glad when I gave them my business card just in case. The second resident I met was Jerry Mace who was washing his car in his driveway. While speaking with Mr. Mace, he informed me that he has lived there for 22 years and it is a very quiet neighborhood.  I left my business card with Mr. Mace and informed him to call if he has any problems. The third resident I met this month was Cindy Farley who was checking her mail with her two little dogs. Ms. Farley has lived there for about five years and feels very safe in the neighborhood. I left my business card with Ms. Farley and informed her to call if she has any problems.

This month I met with Dan Jones on several occasions.  Mr. Jones was looking forward to his grandson coming over later that day. Another day I spoke with Mr. Jones and he showed me his tomato plants that he had brought into his garage during the freeze. I spoke with Mr. Jones about the two gardens my wife has at home. Mr. Jones stated that his wife also has a garden in their back yard. I found Mr. Jones and his wife to be in good health and he was glad to hear the weather was going to be warming up.

Also this month I attempted to make contact with the owner of an RV bearing TXLP: VTF-48Z several times with no luck.  The vehicle is registered to Mark Pavey.  I issued a warning to the owner last month for the RV which is located at 2023 Briar Lane.  I also located a junk vehicle at 2010 Dowling apartment #111 VIN# WBADB2407F0531901 brown 1985 BMW with no license plates. I attempted to make contact but there was no answer. I left a junk vehicle notice on the front door of the residence. The following week I went back to check on the junk vehicle and it has been removed.
