Residential Burglary Prevention

Our homes are a place of comfort, refuge, and security for ourselves, family, and friends.  Unfortunately, residential burglaries are a far-too-common occurrence nationwide, and can be a traumatic experience for those victimized under these circumstances.  Burglaries can occur any time of the day, in any neighborhood, but you can never be too careful when it comes to securing your home and taking simple measures to help reduce the chance of falling victim to a home burglary.  Here are some tips we’d like to share with you on this important topic.

  • Start with a security survey. If you can identify any vulnerable entry points, chances are good that a burglar can too.  Never leave keys in “hidden” places.  Burglars know all the likely places to look.  When moving into a new home, or if you lose your keys, have all the locks changed.
  • Secure your entry points with strong doors and windows. Reinforce these entry points with dead bolts, quality keyed locks, and secure door and window frames.  Make sure your door hinges are on the inside.  Door gates and window bars can also help prevent ready access to the most common points of entry.
  • Keep your outside doors, gates, and garage doors closed and locked at all times, especially when away from home, and before going to bed. Always secure any door that leads from the garage into the interior of the home.  Also, never leave a garage door opener visible in a vehicle, as this is a ready method of entry into the garage and home.
  • Keep trees and shrubs pruned so as to not provide hiding places or concealment for burglars. Try not to cover windows, doorways, or other points of entry with overgrown trees and shrubs.  Don’t leave ladders, tools, trash cans, or anything that could be used to gain entry to your home readily accessible to suspects.
  • Never underestimate the benefits of exterior lighting, motion activated/sensitive lights, and security cameras. They not only help prevent burglaries, but are instrumental in helping to collect valuable evidence.  Consider a home alarm system, and if you have one, use it!  Activate your system as needed to provide alerts of any unlawful entry.
  • Leave valuables out of sight, be it out in front of your home, in an open garage, or visible through windows. Consider using window coverings on entry doors, windows, and garage doors to help prevent ready view into the interior of your home.  Make your home look occupied.  Use automatic timers on lights, and consider leaving a T.V. or radio on.
  • Don’t allow mail, flyers, newspapers, garbage/recycling bins, and package deliveries to build up in front of your home. If need be, ask a trusted neighbor to collect these items.  If you plan to be away, don’t needlessly share vacation plans on social media or in general.
  • Be a good and aware neighbor. You are the eyes and ears of your neighborhood, and an important part of our community policing efforts.  Communicate with your neighbors and share information, either through a neighborhood watch program or online group.  You know your neighborhood best, so look out for one another, and if anything appears suspicious, don’t hesitate to call the police immediately.
  • If you return home to find your home broken into, don’t go inside, don’t touch anything, and call the police immediately.

Stay safe, aware, and informed!

Saturday’s Glen Park Greenway Work Party is Cancelled.

“I’m very sorry to say that
we have cancelled our Work Party for this Saturday July 12, along with all organized volunteer activity on the Greenway until further notice.
As you may have read in the news, our fiscal sponsor, San Francisco Parks Alliance (SFPA), has shut itself down. Just as SFPA has shut itself down, the Greenway, as an organized part of SFPA, has also been “shut down.” We are busy looking for a suitable alternative fiscal sponsor that is willing to replace SFPA. That search is going well but it is a slow process. We had hoped to find temporary ways to enable the Greenway project to function responsibly as a community activity without a fiscal sponsor. Sadly, despite our best efforts and the help of many others in Glen Park, we have failed. That is why we must cancel our Saturday Work Party and discontinue future work parties and other organized volunteer activity on the Greenway (like weeding and watering) until further notice. We recognize that the Greenway is public open space and that the organizers of the Greenway project have no control over the activities of you or of anyone else on the Greenway. However, if you do venture onto the Greenway to satisfy your urge for outdoor recreation, please be aware that your activity is not in any way organized or sanctioned by the organizers of the Glen Park Greenway project. I’m well aware of the efforts that many of the
Greenway’s supporters are making to get the Greenway organized with a new fiscal sponsor and I’m confident that this will be arranged within weeks or perhaps a few months.
However long it takes, I will contact you with news of our progress.
Many thanks for all that you do for the Greenway.”

Nicholas Dewar, volunteer Project Director
