Go to the Supervisor of Election's site to view Sample Ballots.

For the bewildering array of (especially Judicial) elections, I found a combination of the Sun-Sentinel's Voter's Guide, the Miami Herald's Guide, candidate web sites and my favorite dirt digging spin machine Broward Beat to be helpful.

Road Closure: 62nd between Dixie and 18th

Start:     Jul 6, '10 10:00a
End:     Jul 16, '10
Despite promising the construction of the new school building would not impact traffic, it seems that Broward County is requiring Pine Crest to close 62nd for two weeks. Pine Crest asked us to inform the community as the county does not believe it is required to do so. The closure will facilitate the extension of turn lanes and sewer pipes (why anyone thought theses could happen WITHOUT closing the street is beyond me).

I did not see any detour signs or indications of road closure this morning, but that does not mean those signs won't go up later today.

FLPD have action plan to address burglaries in Coral Ridge Isles and Knoll Ridge

During the month of April our neighbors to south (Knoll Ridge) and west (Coral Ridge) have been slammed by a wave of burglaries.  The police believe that there are four groups operating in the two areas, and are enacting an action plan to stem the tide.  I'm posting the details of the crimes below.  If you see anything suspicious please don't hesitate to call the police at the non-emergency number: 954-828-5700, and if you witness a crime in progress call 911. 

Residential Burglaries 107 Zone

During the month of April 107 zone has seen an increase in BER s. After reviewing the reports it appears that there are multiple culprits active in the area. Listed below are the 4 patterns of burglaries including MO s, time frame and property targeted.

Coral Ridge Isles

Pattern 1 (triangle)

The Burglaries are occurring during dayshift on Mon & Tuesdays. The Culprits targeted jewelry, personal documents and other small valuables. Culprit probably lives in area traveling on foot. Entry is being made through windows (not visible from street).

Pattern 2 (squares)

These burglaries are occurring overnight (shift 3) or at the very end of shift 2. Entry is being made through rear apt doors while the victim is out of the residence. Cash and Electronics are being targeted. Most of the activity is occurring overnight Fri-Sat night.

Knoll Ridge

Pattern 3 (Circles)

Culprits attempt to pry open side garage doors and then move to the front door if unable to make entry. Electronics are targeted. Incidents are occurring on Tue & Thu during dayshift.

Activate alarms, have neighbors call police if they see unfamiliar vehicles in their neighbors driveway, try to get a description of the vehicle and the TAG!!

Pattern 4 (circles)

Entry is being made by breaking glass out of exterior door. Both residents are within a block of each other. Both victims were out of town or away from their homes for a couple of days when the burglaries occurred. It should be considered that the culprit(s) may live in the area or had knowledge that the victims were away from their homes.

If residents are going out of town have a trusted friend check on the residence, pick up the mail etc. Activate your alarm and have a keyholder respond if the alarm is activated!

Suspect Information

One burglary was possibly interrupted at 2081 NE 55 St when a neighbor returned home and saw an older model compact vehicle with faded gold paint in the victim s driveway. The vehicle then fled the scene but the witness did not see the occupants.

Residents should try and obtain a TAG and a description of the occupants!

BER 6400 NE 18 Ave

Unrelated to the listed patterns above a burglary occurred in the north end of the zone listed above. The victims stated that she was away for a couple of days and discovered her apt ransacked upon her return. The victim s laptop was taken. The victim advised that this is the 2nd time her apt has been burglarized (The 1st time was not reported). In both burglaries no signs of forced entry could be found. The victim believes that the last tenant in her apt may have entered using his key.
