Security – A Shared Responsibility!

Security – A Shared Responsibility!

With almost 2,400 homes and an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 residents, our Association is about the size of an average American small town.

While Geist Patrol Officers are armed and have full police powers, they do not have the ability to act in certain situations unless they receive a call asking for assistance.  A resident must call 911 or Geist Patrol and request an Officer be dispatched to investigate.

Here are some steps we can all take to keep GHPOA safe:

  • Immediately call Geist Patrol at 317-842-8082 to report any suspicious activity, vehicle or person. The Geist Patrol phone is answered 24/7/365.
  • Vacant homes are easy targets for burglars or trespassing. Please call Geist Patrol and notify the Officers if there is a vacant home in your neighborhood. Geist Patrol can schedule extra patrols.
  • Take advantage of Geist Patrol’s daily vacation check when you are going out of town. If you have not already done so, visit GeistPatrol.com and register. Once registered you can visit the homeowner portal and complete the form for daily vacation checks, receive security updates and more.
  • Regularly utilize exterior lights, motion detectors, security alarms and video cameras if these are available.
  • Consider putting timers on interior lights.
  • Lock vehicles parked in your driveway and remove all valuables. 
  • Lock the door from your garage to your home.
  • Program a unique garage pad code. Don’t leave it on the factory set numbers.
  • Stop mail and newspaper deliveries if you are going out of town.
  • Arrange for a friend or neighbor to check for packages.

While the homes in our Association continue to be among the safest in Indianapolis, looking out for each other and immediately contacting Geist Patrol are steps we can all take to minimize crime in our 12 neighborhoods.

Please Do Not Put Tape on Street and Sign Poles!

GHPOA budgets over $15,000 per year for maintenance on our poles and signs. We are asking for your cooperation in not taping notices of garage sales, lost pets, items for sale, etc. on the poles. When the tape and sign are removed, the tape removes the paint finish from the poles which increases our yearly maintenance cost. If you need to advertise a garage sale, etc., we ask for your cooperation by using a yard sign which you may push into the grass. Thanks for partnering with us to maintain the appearance of our Association!

Important Safety Reminder From Geist Patrol!

While, to this point, no burglaries have been reported in GHPOA, Geist Patrol has notified us that a group of professional burglars is active in the surrounding area.

We are urged to take the following precautions:

  • Immediately report all suspicious vehicles and pedestrians to Geist Patrol by calling 317-842-8082, paying particular attention to vehicles parked on the street with individuals sitting in the vehicle.
  • Turn on all exterior lighting from dusk to dawn.
  • If you have a security system, please set your alarm anytime you leave your home.
  • Keep all doors and windows locked, including the door from your garage into your home.
  • Sliding glass doors are vulnerable. Please consider installing special locks for better security. 
  • Keep your garage door closed and if you have a keypad, please utilize a personal code.
  • Please park all vehicles in your garage. If this is not possible, lock all vehicles parked in your driveway and remove all valuables.
  • Consider using timers on interior lights.

Dog Bites Increasing in GHPOA Communities…

An Important Safety Reminder from Geist Patrol!
Over the past several months, there has been an increase in dog bites in GHPOA communities. Indianapolis and Fishers law states that pets are not allowed to roam free at any time, including when accompanying their owners on walks. When walking, your pet must be on a leash and under your control at all times. Pets in your yard must be confined (fence, chain, etc.). Geist Patrol will continue to work with local law enforcement and animal control to enforce this law to ensure the safety of residents walking in GHPOA communities.

VACANT MARSH/NEEDLER LOCATION

Located at the corner of Fox and Oaklandon Roads, a local company purchased this property. Part of the oversized parking lot has been subdivided and a new shopping strip will be built. We have been advised that negotiations are underway for the leasing of the existing vacant building and for future tenants of the new shopping strip. It is anticipated that leases will be signed in 2024.
