Attention Residents: Copper Thieves Strike Again!

Regarding recent Streetlight Outages in Country Hollow near Silver Creek Ave. You may have read that someone boldly stole copper wire right out of the live working streetlight system. While the theft of copper wire from construction sites is not uncommon of late... live wires? Really? 

 

It is very important that ALL residents be on the lookout for any suspicious activity and if you see anything please call the Pierce County Sheriff (911) immediately! We would also appreciate informational reports: membcare@silvercreekwa.com  — in criminal instances though, please contact the Sheriff first.

 

The first incident happened during the week of May 1st. We had a repair contractor install new wire and lights were operational on May 8th.

 

Unfortunately, that same night, they stole the new wire and expanded to other streets-even going into Brookfield...

 

Your Association Leadership strongly encourages all of you to be proactive to help prevent this type of activity.

 

Here are some suggestions:

  • Leave your porch lights on (thieves normally operate behind the shield of darkness).

     

  • Get to know your neighbors! Where people communicate, thieves don’t infiltrate.

     

  • Watch your area (you can even do this from inside).

     

And finally;

  • Listen to your dogs… they usually only bark when they hear something. Check it out.

Together we can reduce crime by being aware.

Thank you for your cooperation.

 

 

Status/Update:

We are working with the HOA's insurance company to ensure that we get the funding required to take care of this latest act of larceny.  We are estimating that the cost of repairing the damage could end up being as much as $50,000.  We assure you that we will continue to stay on top of this until all the lights in all the affected subdivisions are repaired.  We are looking at ways to secure the boxes, where the wires run, from the thieves at a reasonable cost. Please check back here as we will update as more information comes becomes available.

Crews are starting today Wed. May 16th and will progress as fast as possible. 

On March 21, 2012, 6:30 PM; a regular meeting of the Board of Directors was held at the Community Center. Approved minutes from that meeting are posted on this website.

Attention Residents;

Your Homeowner's Association is constantly in need of volunteers. There are many people who, working together, keep the HOA running by volunteering their time - we wish to thank them all. Some positions are vacant and some are filled by people who wish to take a little break. If you can volunteer any amount of time at all, to do anything at all, it would be greatly appreciated; please contact us via email hoaboard@silvercreekwa.com and let us know what your talents and time availability are... we will try to find a place for you. 'Many hands make lighter the work' and it takes many to run this "small city" that we call home!

Thank you,

Board of Directors
