It seems that the majority of this board has come to the conclusion that all directors should have access to the financial aspects of our community because Treasurer Sandberg has stayed.
Thank you Board

Theft victims met with Detective Padilla at Brownsville sheriffs office. They were informed that there are 11 active cases filed with their department--and 3 with the constable office for a total of 14. Mr. Padilla has advised us he will speak to our group, anytime. He was unavailable last night because he was involved with a murder suspect, in Brownsville.. He wants every new case filed with his office ASAP as soon as you know about break in. The office number is 956-554-6700. Do not wait hours or days later if possible.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Please file if you think it is important or not. Mark tvs, appliances, cameras, everything of value.Most important, take a picture, even if it is with your camera phone! Write down serial and model numbers. Make very accurate descriptions, that is why pictures help. Thank you everyone who came to the meeting, last night--and everyone who e-mailed and shared information. Lets keep the communication lines open and stick together,we can share accurate information and get this problem solved! I do want to stress that person of interest has not been apprehended!
