<div dir="auto">All of us pay for the Dallas Police Department through our property and sales taxes which go to the City of Dallas. Some may believe that the cost of off duty police to sit in the neighborhood doing paperwork in a police car is a deterrent to crime, and worth paying additional money. In all of the years that my family has lived in LJE, I have seen no fact based evidence that any crime was prevented because of the presence of off duty police sitting in parked police cars in LJE. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Best for the Holidays </div><div dir="auto">Katherine </div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Dec 16, 2021 at 10:20 AM liza urso via Neighbors <<a href="mailto:neighbors@lj-estates.com">neighbors@lj-estates.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Just saw this on Neighbors: <a href="https://neighbors.ring.com/c/jq9X3Lf8YbnpPt1be32bfa6L" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://neighbors.ring.com/c/jq9X3Lf8YbnpPt1be32bfa6L</a><br>

Just got this from Ring. 1/2 of the reports are within about a mile of our homes. <br>
<br>
Neighbors, PLEASE join or renew your membership in our ENP. The number of hours of patrol we receive is directly related to how much revenue is generated by memberships. At the current low membership rate, we will have to reduce the number of patrol hours. Scary in light of the very slow response time of Dallas Police, and the rising crime rate in our area. <br>
<br>
The rate is incredibly reasonable for the personal protection we receive. LESS THAN $1/DAY! <br>
<br>
Let’s band together as the great, helpful neighborhood we are and help one another by getting as many memberships/patrol hours as we can. <br>
<br>
I find it unfair that those who don’t join are “piggybacking” off the protection procured by those who do join. <br>
<br>
And don’t forget the incredibly generous subsidization offer of Jen and John Sanders. <br>
<br>
Best regards to all, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Liza<br>
