The Altadena Coalition of Neighborhood Associations (ACONA) looks at Neighborhood Watch, traffic issues, and those darn robot calls at its March 26 meeting.
1. Open communications with Neighborhood Watch groups.
Neighborhood Watch groups are more effective if they can freely communicate with the Sheriff’s Department, and each other. Altadena Sheriff Capt John Benedict and Jeff Sedlik, who has mapped out al lthe Neighborhood Watches in Altadena, will be there to tell us how it can be done.
But how about communication BETWEEN neighborhood watch groups? Maye the sheriff can’t share names and number of block captains, but there’s no reason why the captains can’t do it on their own. Facebook? A web page? The possibilities are there …
2. Traffic, parking, speeding, etc.
Have an issue with parking, speeding, the need for street improvements in your Altadena neighborhood?- ACONA has surveyed its membership, and gotten nearly three dozen requests which the county and the Highway Patrol will address at the meeting. Paul Barbe of the LA County Department of Public Works, as well as a member of the California Highway Patrol’s COPS team will present.
3. Do Not Call list
Tired of getting those robo-calls? Why doesn’t the “Do Not Call” list seem to work? ACONA is working to get a speaker to address this.
ACONA meets on March 26 from 7-8:30 PM at the Altadena Main Library, 600 E. Mariposa St.
