 Okay, so I'm Cynthia Spielman. Welcome to the Beacon Hill Area Neighborhood Association meeting. This is the place we meet once a month. We talk out our issues. We find that we meet each other, our neighbors, and sometimes we even have a good time. So, agenda. Is it agenda or anything we want to? That is going to happen. Because there's so much discussion of that, I've taken the ZUD committee out of the committee section, and we're going to talk about that as a separate case. Yeah, that law effort, everyone loud and clear. No, you were just, we're not taking anything out of the ZUD agenda. What we're doing is we're taking the ZUD committee report and placing it in a passport all by itself. That's just so much to talk about. Okay, so we're just going to talk about that. Yes, that was Susan. Yes, there is. Okay, so the last minutes are in the newsletter. Is anybody who wants to make a motion that we approve them? Emotion, yes. Who's new to that? Sometimes we'll do that because it's part of the city process, so we welcome them, and that's why holding a mic usually I'm not holding a mic. Okay, so please, is she telling me to go closer? Yes. Would, please raise your hand and stand up to introduce yourself if you're brand new tonight. Greetings all of you new folks and everybody else. I'm Brock Curry. I'm the treasurer of the Neighbor Association. I only put a few of these out, but if you want to look at the treasurer's report, the extended dance version is on the website. The abbreviated one is in the newsletter, but mainly it was an amazing month, mainly because we had a wonderful garage sale that brought in about $2,100. Thanks to those of you who were participating in that, it was very helpful. 50% of that went to the general fund, which is what we use to pay for the newsletter itself, so it was very helpful to help us make ends meet. We also had some new ads in May expenses. We had a typical maintenance on the printer, newsletter, paper and toner. There was some money spent at the community garden, and there was a $100 given to Beacon Hill Amentary from the vanilla spun. That was the end of the year activities for the school, so that was very nice. So that's about it. That's real quick. Any questions on the treasurer report? Thank you to Jerry Locky and the Heart of the Neighborhood Committee. They put on this garage sale, and they also put on a celebration of Phase 2 of the Linear Park, and quite frankly, they're the community liaison with the community parks. Jerry Locky, would you please stand up? I know you're here because I saw you. There you are. The garage sale there, and they fed everybody, and really they went above and beyond. This is our safe officer, but he has Monday nights off, so for tonight Officer McCall is going to come up and talk to you about crime in the neighborhood. I'm doing tonight a good turnout, the most I've seen yet. What I tried to do is I tried to go through all the crime stats for the last month. One of the sites that I use, aside from our systems, I also go to one that you all can use. It's called CrimeSpot.com. One of the problems I see with that though is it will show like there were a lot of burglaries in the area, but then when you actually go into our system and look at the cases, a lot of them turned out not to be burglaries. One thing that CrimeSpot gives you is it will bring up a map. It will bring a map up, and when I first looked at it I kind of panicked a little bit because it puts a little symbol on there, a little burglar, for every burglary that it said happened in an area. And when it first popped up just for the last month, there were way too many of those symbols on there. That had me really concerned. One thing that happens, there were several cases where people called in burglaries where it wasn't a burglary. I'm not sure exactly what was going on. They suspected there might be even possibly mental health issues because they said there were no signs of any break-in, doors, windows, everything was secure. So we can work with the people using our CIT personnel if that becomes a routine problem. The other problem that we see is Facebook. A lot of times people will get on Facebook and be talking about the crimes going on in the area, and it gets blown out of proportion. I had the same problem over in the King William area. People were getting on there, more than one person would be talking about the same crime, and then people would look, there must have been four shootings last night, but they were all talking about the same one. So you have to be careful with the Facebook. Things can really get blown out of proportion on there. Now I did see there were several cases in the area that were serious crimes. There were some definitely good burglaries. There's one place on West King's Highway. I don't know what the deal is. Somebody keeps hitting them over and over. I haven't gotten access to the actual reports. I don't know if the property crimes detectives had gotten anywhere on that case. I don't know why they're messing with that person over and over. There was a shooting on Cincinnati. Somebody's car got shot up. They believe that was a personal issue. They suspected an ex-boyfriend might have been the one to do it. So I don't think that was any kind of a random shooting in the area. That was more of a personal. Any questions? I can try to talk about any of the specifics. Yeah, I can just technical question really. If somebody is stoned out of their yard, and there's technically a break-in or evidence of a break-in, you don't call that a burglary? That would just be a theft. Something stolen out of your yard could be written up and handled as a theft call. If they actually make entry into the house to steal something, that's where it crosses the line to be in a burglary. What are the statistics on theft versus burglary? There were quite a bit of thefts. I was not able to go through all of the theft calls to find out how many of them. When I turned it out the last month, there were quite a few thefts. That's something, in the summertime, we always see a spike in crime. We think a lot of it has to do with teenagers that are bored, the parents aren't watching them. They're getting together in groups and going out and getting in trouble. That's what we see a lot of it as behavior. So we have our units watching out for any kids. We have curfews. We try to enforce those if we can catch them. But we do always see a spike in crime in the summertime. Yes? I understand Officer Baylor is off on the night, so we have our meetings. There are plenty of other days in the month for him to be able to have this prepared so that each of our officer calls are short straw. And it's the company's meetings actually has information that is prepared for them and they're not standing up there trying to make us happy. We are working on that, trying to get better crime stats. It used to be a lot easier for us. We had crime analysts that were right across the hall. We could go over to them and say, can you give me the crime stats for this area? And it was a lot easier now. They took them away from us. So it's a little bit more difficult for us to get crime stats. But we're working on trying to get those. This time he was actually gone on vacation for the last week. So that's why I came in pretty much unprepared tonight. Excuse me. Yes? Could you ask for a store of hands of people in your group and some hints of them at their house? Do you have some of their stuff? She's asking anybody that's had a law issue, something happened at their house, theft, burglary, anything like that, criminal mister? In the last month? In the last month. That's just for curiosity. Well, it's 1948. I know there are concerns. I guess there are some people that feel like there's a major crime rate happening. It's not as bad as it seems. If you look at other parts of the town where crime is happening also, it's everywhere. We try to address, especially any of the spikes in crime, if we see one popping up, we try to look for that and address it. We used to get a map that had all the places that crime had happened in the last month. And we don't anymore, but I'm going to try a crime spot and see if we can't print that map out. So I told them, just send it to me and I'll get copies made. But we'll try and get copies made for the next meeting. So you will actually have a map that shows you the parts of the town that are being hit. Is Casper's here?
