Accidents on Brawley
We are saddened to report another wreck on Brawley School Road in recent weeks which caused someone to have to go to the hospital. This should go without being said, but please drive with caution. There are 834 completed homes in The Point, many of which have children and/ or pets. With the amount of walkers, runners, bikers, school buses and work trucks in our neighborhood, it is easy to know how dangerous it is to remove your eyes from the road for even a second. Please remember the speed limit is 45 MPH… frequently we have to slow down or stop for school buses, bikers and road work. The center lane is for turning ONLY and should not be used as a passing lane. Below is a recent incident in NC in which a driver took his eyes off the road and hit a school bus injuring 10:

Security Reminder:
Please keep in mind that criminals look for easy targets and other potential advantages particularly on holiday weeks/ times when many people travel. Please keep your doors locked at all times, park vehicles in the garage or keep the doors locked, do not leave valuables in your vehicle, and keep garage doors closed, even during the day. If you have a home security system, turn it on when you are gone and also at night along with outdoor lights. Also, secure loose items on any boats or docks.

Emergencies, Non-Emergencies and Reporting a Crime:
If you have a fire, medical or life-threatening emergency call 911. For all Sheriff, Fire or EMS non-emergencies call 704-878-3100. This is the direct line to dispatch and is the best number to call for the quickest response.
