August 6th is National Night Out
NATIONAL NIGHT OUT is designed to:
Although this is not an Association event I would like to encourage you to attend any events in your neighborhood that are taking place.
Neighbors. Let’s keep an eye out.
Learn more about Graffiti and how to prevent it!
We are receiving a vast number of reports of malicious injury by graffiti and we need your help in identifying the suspects committing this criminal activity.
Although we have had several graffiti reports since May, we had 15 reports of graffiti in the past two weeks alone. Not only is this disheartening to the homeowner, but it can be quite an expensive undertaking to remove the paint and /or repair the damaged property.
The suspects are active between 11:00 pm – 4:00 am. They are mostly targeting residential fences and property, vehicles, and commercial buildings, however, public spaces and schools are also being damaged throughout Boise.
Please alert your neighbors of an increase in activity. For those who get up during the night, encourage them to look out a window and if they see criminal or suspicious activity occurring at that time to call 911 immediately. If you have any information on this crime, please contact Non-Emergency Dispatch at 377-6790 or you can remain anonymous and call Crime Stoppers at 343-COPS.
Thank you,

City hosts 10 education sessions about dog rules, off-leash areas
Neighbors who have questions about dog parks and off-leash policies are invited to join city representatives at 10 education sessions in May and June.
Representatives of Boise Parks & Recreation, the City Clerk’s Office and the Boise Police Department will answer questions and distribute information in parks and preserves throughout the city.
The goal is to explain rules pertaining to dog leashing, licensing and removal of pet waste. City representatives also hope pet owners with help with compliance.
The dog off-leash areas and parks are intended to provide neighborhoods with accessible places for owners to exercise their pets and enjoy time with their dogs said Doug Holloway, director of Boise Parks & Recreation. We welcome the opportunity to hear feedback from neighbors about our parks and policies.
Each meeting location offers daily dog-off leash hours approved by the Boise Parks & Recreation Commission.
