March 2010 Committee Report
Spate of Vandalism and Mischief Reported
Residents reported vandalism to their properties Thursday night 25 - 26 March. A vehicle was sprayed with a foreign substance on Ferris Creek and a crape myrtle was damaged the same night a few doors down. Also overnight, several curbside recycle bins were tipped at various places around the north side of FSR.
Blue Armor patrolled the neighborhood late Thursday night and early Friday morning. Nothing unusual was observed. Security officers and FSR's own Cellular on Patrol volunteers were notified for subsequent patrol emphasis.
The exact day of occurrence of another vandalism case is unknown. But that same week, a Finesilver Dr speed limit sign was discovered on the ground. It has since been repaired.
Cellular on Patrol
Four patrols were conducted during March. A patrol late on the 5th noted the license plate of a suspicious vehicle at Chapelwood and Cove Creek for future reference.
Over various patrols, three garage doors were noted open late at night. Homeowners were contacted in two of these cases; attempts to contact the third failed.
Blue Armor Patrol Summary
Security officers noted the gates were open during the early mornings 7 and 8 March and again on 14 and 15 March. Each time, Association Management Services was notified to schedule repair. Early on 25 March an officer secured the pedestrian gate which had swung open.
A 3:00 am patrol on 18 March prevented a tow truck operator from entering FSR. The driver desired access to make a repossession but was refused at the gate.
Blue Armor ran radar on Finesilver Dr from about 10:00 to 10:30 am 12 March. No violations were observed.
SAPD Responses
Police responded to nine Finesilver Ranch service calls during March, compared to seven during March last year. The monthly average for 2009 was 12 calls.
San Antonio Police were dispatched 26 March to take the vandalism report on Ferris Creek and a criminal mischief complaint on Canterview (probably related cases).
Reports of credit card abuse and lost property were also received during March. Finally, police responded to three alarm calls, a disturbance, and one labeled miscellaneous.
In the Greenbriar neighborhood near Nichols ES, police were dispatched to a disturbance and two burglar alarms.
Greenbriar, with about 1/4 the number of homes as Finesilver Ranch, is the closest gated community and presumably has similar demographics for crime reporting comparison.
Sex Offender Watch
No registered sex offenders reside in Finesilver Ranch as of this post.
SAFD Responses
SAFD/EMS made one medical call to an FSR residence.

Burglars Stike Area Apartments
Ten vehicles were burglarized at three apartment complexes near Bandera and Camino Bandera Rds. last month, according to police dispatch records.
Most of the break-ins (five) occurred at the Silver Rock apartments during Monday night or early Tuesday morning 22-23 March. Another two burglaries were reported that same night at the Verde Braun Station apartments just south on Bandera Rd. The remaining three incidents were reported 12 and 15 March, adding the Bandera Crossing apartments in one case.
The Camino Bandera area was last hit during December and October. Finesilver Ranch is not immune. Park in garages, or, if this is not possible, remove valuables from vehicles or hide them from sight.
Leave it; Lose it.
