Questions we actually get
Before you call
Do you run the gate or just patrol?
Either, or both. A staffed gate is a standing post; a roving patrol is a marked vehicle on a varied route through the community. Most boards start with one and add the other once the incident log shows where the exposure actually is.
How do residents authorize visitors?
Through whatever you already use: a call-ahead list, a visitor management app, or the gate phone. Our officer works to your list and logs every entry against it. We do not run our own resident database.
What goes to the board?
A monthly report: incidents by type, gate volumes, recurring problems, and a plain recommendation. Written so the president can read it aloud at the meeting without editing it.
Can the officer enforce our rules?
The officer observes, documents and reports. Rule enforcement stays with the association, and trespass and criminal matters go to the sheriff. Our log is what makes the association's action stick.
