Following are some tips to protect the safety of our cars and homes.

Register your car at www.azwatchyourcar.com (see details before enrollment)

Put your car keys beside your bed at night.

If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.

  • Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away.
  • Think pf this:
  • It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation.
  • Test it.
  • It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button of the key fob chain.
  • If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break in your house, odds are the burglar or rapist won't stick around.after a few seconds all the neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal will not want that.

    WARNING ABOUT PARKING

    Here is a tip that could save you an expensive ticket.

  • According to City Ordinance 20-26- and 20-277, parking a vehicle either on a sidewalk or in the dirt easement between the property line and curb where there could be a sidewalk is against the law.
  • Fines run from $ 50-150.
  • For more information about parking codes, go to www.municode.com.
  • Of course, it is always best to speak with the violator first, but if the situation persists, call Parkwise 791-5071.
  • This city agency does patrol regularly, but also responds to complaints and issues tickets.
