What makes a good community is neighbours who look out for each other.
This
is a great place to live and bring up our children. Let’s
keep it that way!
ADVICE ON REDUCING CRIME AND INCREASING SAFETY
1. Report suspicious activity
If you see any suspicious activity or unusual behaviour around neighbouring
homes or on the street, call the police.
- For EMERGENCY dial 911
- For NON EMERGENCY call Police at 33 division 416- 808-3300.
Give the police as many details as possible, i.e. description(s) of person(s) involved, license plate number(s), colour-make-model etc.
2. Stopping House Break-Ins
There are certain weaknesses in houses, which increase the risk of break-ins. The Neighbourhood Watch Committee has attended a security seminar with the Police Dept. in which these weaknesses and ways to eliminate them have been pointed out. There are products available to help with this, if interested contact BVA via e-mail: Bayviewvill@bayviewvillage.org
3. Traffic and Pedestrian Safety
Traffic, speed, and failure to stop at stop signs have increased dramatically
in Bayview Village. The Police will be constantly monitoring traffic
in the Village. PLEASE develop the habit of obeying all speed limits
and stop signs. Also, more and more residents are walking on the
wrong side of the street. Where there are no sidewalks PLEASE walk
on the LEFT side, so you can see what traffic is coming and take
precautions if necessary.
4. House Numbers and Emergency Situations
It is important for emergency services such as FIRE, AMBULANCE and
POLICE, that HOUSE NUMBERS SHOULD BE EASILY VISIBLE FROM THE STREET
DURING THE DAY OR NIGHT. Otherwise delays in service can occur and
this could be costly when lives are at stake. House numbers should
be large enough and placed in a well lit area in front of the house.
If you have any suggestions as to how we can improve the safety of our neighborhood, please forward to us at our E-Mail address: Bayviewvill@bayviewvillage.org
