Directors Kevin Zingler and John Topping recently sent a letter to Town Manager Scott Shanley requesting that the town research the details regarding the purchase and installation of "Block Watch" signage in the Green Manor area.
Both attended the last community meeting at the Manchester Senior Center, and with about 50 people in attendance, discussed how to make the neighborhood safer. One of the suggestions was the formation of a "Block Watch" program. As the sentiment was unanimous that this occur quickly, Directors Zingler and Topping immediately forwarded a letter to Shanley requesting that the town identify what the procedure(s) are for the installation of the signs, the cost and the time required to perform the installation.
As stated by Zingler, "Besides being a crime deterrent, the installation of the signs would also reaffirm the town's commitment to solve the recent criminal activity in the area."
