The Owners Corporation Security sub-committee manages the Estate security with the aim of improving the quality of life within our community and raising awareness. This in turn assists the residents by minimising preventable crime and promoting closer community ties.
The Sands Security information
Security Review
As previously stated we are undertaking a review of estate security, with a meeting planned this week. All suspicious activity should always be reported to police. We are just as frustrated and annoyed with the unwanted activity as you all are. Please be patient as we are doing our best to resolve this matter. Be vigilant and security conscious.
Security Patrols
Hume Security has been appointed for a further 12 months to provide random security patrols (with marked cars) each night with increased patrols on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. Additional patrols have been organised for all holiday periods, ie: christmas, Easter, School holidays and Schoolies. The sub-committee will change these arrangements if necessary and continue to moniter the program.
Neighbourhood Watch
- Additional signage installed on St Georges Way and Chart Hills Place;
- Additional NHW bin stickers & letter box plaques are available from the committee. If you require any of these items please advise through the following email address info@thesandscommunity.com.au.
Speeding Traffic Report
A reminder to all that the ADVISORY speed for vehicles within the Sands Estate is 40 km/hr. In the interests of safety to all residents and specifically our children we need to slow down. We have many children as well as pets in the estate that have a propensity to wander out on the road. Being prepared for such occurrences will certainly assist in keeping everyone safe.
Reports of children playing around the Lakes
There have been a few reports of children playing around the lakes within the estate. Please do not allow your children to play around these areas as the consequences could be disastrous. The Lakes are extremely deep and cold and therefore dangerous.
