Porch Light Program Needs Participants(英文)

此内容暂无简体中文译文,以下为英文原文。

Historical July 1986 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

In conjunction with last year’s National Night Out, August 13, 1985, the SDCC Safety Committee renewed the effort to “light up” Skinker DeBaliviere by encouraging residents to turn on porch lights from dusk to dawn. Light is one of the best deterrents to crime and moreover, it is a bargain: it costs $1.25 a month to use a 60-watt bulb 10 hours a day.

The safety committee has funds to assist anyone who cannot afford the added utility expense.

The committee also plans to hire an electrician to make minor repairs to porch light fixtures for any building in the neighborhood. Several more referrals for repairs are needed before we can hire the electrician.

If you or someone you know needs a front or back porch light fixture repaired, please call the SDCC office, 862-5122.

National Night Out will be celebrated again this year on August 13.

The program is a one-hour, coast-to-coast crime watch project; neighbors are asked to come outside, walk up and down their block, or have a block party from 8-9 p.m. (See related article on the front page of this issue.) Mark your calendars for 8 p.m., Wednesday August 13, and watch for more information.
