Stolen Mail
| This has been a busy week for thieves! Wednesday and Thursday there was a white male with a dark beard spotted in a gold, 4 door, Audi or VW style car going through mail boxes. Several houses had mail stolen or packages stolen off of their front porches.
Please be on the look out for suspicious activity. Unfortunately, nobody was able to collect a license plate. Without additional information, we are unable to identify the suspect. |

We are still looking for a couple of volunteers to help the Bayonne Board plan the 2011 Holiday decorations at the entrance to our subdivision. This will be a fun task, and a great way to get to know a few new neighbors. To volunteer please contact any of the board members listed below.

Letter from Lance Hines - Subject...New Sales Tax
| From: Lance Hines [mailto:lancehines@me.com]
Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2011 9:20 PM
Subject: Little Rock City Sales Tax Open Letter
Chenal Valley POA Presidents,
Much has been said and written about Little Rock's upcoming vote for a 1-cent sales tax to assist our city in balancing its budget for 2012 and investing in our community's future. What you may not know is that every possible cut has been made to our current budget to eliminate all areas of waste. At the same time, our many vital services must remain in place---especially those involving public safety, public works, and economic development.
In our area of Little Rock (Ward 5), we have outgrown virtually all of our necessary services and a large portion of this needed revenue will be allocated to serve our western section of the city. Out of the new funds we will see a new police sub-station in West Little Rock, along with the addition of 52 new police officers and the retention of 27 officers that are currently in temporary grant funded positions. We will also see the construction of Little Rock's first new fire station in nearly 20 years, to be built at Taylor Loop and Rahling Road. Furthermore, there will be 36 additional new fire fighters hired and permanent positions created for 18 temporary grant funded fire fighters. All of this will be done to put police and fire fighters on the ground, closer to our neighborhoods which will ensure faster response times, keeping our families safer.
Another important portion of this funding will be dedicated to improving the city's infrastructure needs, including street repaving, widening of roads and the development of new drainage systems. Plus, we'll see elements of this sales tax revenue utilized very specifically for the development of high quality jobs through the solicitation and acquisition of new business and industry.
As a neighborhood leader, I'm asking that you reach out to your friends and contacts and encourage them to make 2 Votes for West Little Rock on Tuesday, September 13th. Suggest that they join you and me in taking an extremely critical stand to help us continue to grow, while keeping our neighborhoods safe and secure.
Please feel free to contact me with question and to come speak and meet with your individual neighborhoods.
Sincerely,
Lance Hines
Little Rock City Director-Ward 5

Remove Yard Signs
| The Rules and Regulations for Bayonne Place state the following:
Homeowners shall not place signs in their yards advertising commercial businesses. We realize that there is a lot of construction being performed in the neighborhood and that these construction companies like to place their signs. However, to follow the rules of the neighborhood, please ask the companies not to leave their signs in your yard or minimally, remove these signs immediately upon completion of the work. |
| Coyotes! | |
Two coyotes were recently sighted on Durance Dr and on Equennes- down by the electrical area that is fenced in by the creek. This was around 5AM. They were very bold and did not run off right away even though they were being barked at by couple of dogs.
Please be careful with your house pets. They should not be left outside unattended at night or during the early morning. With the new apartments being build, a lot of the coyotes' natural habitat is being disturbed so we may continue to see increased activity in our neighborhood.
