On the Security Scene

Sep 19, 2025 | News

Please note that a brief synopsis is provided for pertinent incidents that Security responds to during the previous week. All incidents are not covered in the weekly recap. Statistics for incident reports are provided below.

Flock Cameras

Our community has decided to take a proactive approach to reduce crime and protect our neighborhood with Flock Safety LPR (Automated License Plate Reader) cameras, a national public safety operating system that specializes in community safety through the use of license plate reading cameras. License plates are the number one piece of evidence that police request in the case of criminal activity such as home and car break-ins. By focusing on capturing objective evidence and sending real-time crime alerts to local police, these innovative cameras can help us reduce crime without compromising residents’ privacy.
 
Privacy is a top concern for Flock and our community. As a Flock customer, we own 100% of the data and determine who has access. The data is only stored for 30 days (or in adherence with local laws), and Flock will never share or sell data with third parties without our permission. The Flock LPR system intentionally does not include vehicle registration data. To learn more about Flock Safety, visit www.flocksafety.com.

Guardian Pro Update

We have received a new Guardian Pro camera, which will be deployed later this week or early next week. Chatham County Police Department (CCPD) still is investigating the vandalism to the original unit, and The Landings Association (TLA) intends to pursue any and all legal ramifications.

Golf Cart Incidents

On Sunday, September 14, Security responded to a report of a broken down golf cart. While on scene, the Officer noticed that the golf cart was unregistered and issued a $50 citation.

On Tuesday, September 16, Security received a complaint about a golf cart that was driving recklessly and speeding near the Marshwood Club. The complainant advised that the cart almost hit him while he was walking his dog. Unfortunately, he was unable to obtain a cart number, so the identity of the cart owner is unknown. There were no additional complaints about the golf cart.
