At Monday's council meeting the continuing vandalism at the virtually empty Westbrooke Village came up many times.
Apparently vandals make a habit of busting out windows, painting graffiti on the walls and other acts of destruction.
It appears that the city does notify the new ownership of these items and then they send folks out to fix or mitigate the situation.
Yesterday I sent an email to the governing body and suggested that the shopping center ownership obtain private security to conduct patrols. They would not necessarily be needed 24/7 but maybe from about 8/9 PM until about 5/6 AM.
Bet the neighbors in the surrounding homes would appreciate that.
