Important Security Update

Dear Residents of Campbell Creek HOA,

The purpose of this notice is to provide an update on community security. In line with trends in Gwinnett County, we have seen more reports of property crime, especially thefts and attempted thefts from vehicles.

Homeowners have shared security camera footage of individuals checking car doors and looking into car windows for valuables during the overnight hours. These appear to be crimes of opportunity, targeting unlocked vehicles for visible items of value.

Our community values safety. By taking a few simple steps together, we can reduce these incidents. Additionally, we are working with Gwinnett County Police to implement addtional safety ans security measures. Additional information coming soon.

Please review and implement the following practices.

Protecting Your Property: Key Tips

🔒 Secure Your Vehicles

Lock your doors, every time. This is the most effective deterrent.
Remove valuables. Do not leave purses, wallets, laptops, phones, tools, shopping bags, or loose change in view. If an item must remain, place it in the trunk before arriving home.
Hide garage door openers. Do not leave an opener on the visor; consider a keychain remote.
Use lighting. Park in your garage or a well-lit area. Motion lighting helps.

🔑 Secure Your Home

Light the exterior. Use motion-activated lights for driveways, backyards, and side paths. Keep porch lights on overnight.
Lock doors and windows. Including ground-floor windows and the door between the garage and home.
Trim landscaping. Keep shrubs and trees low near windows and doors.
Use systems you have. Arm alarms. Check that cameras are clean, powered, and aimed at the driveway and front door.

🏡 Community Vigilance

Report suspicious activity.
- For a crime in progress or any immediate threat, call 911.
- For non-urgent concerns in unincorporated Gwinnett County, call the Gwinnett County Police non-emergency line: 770-513-5700.
Do not confront individuals. Your safety comes first.

By following these steps, we help protect our neighborhood.

Sincerely,

Campbell Creek HOA Board
