Public Safety

Roads, driving present multiple hazards

Hello Boulder City! Kiss your loved ones and drive safely off to work. People may never think about the dangers involved with driving and stopping on the side of a street or highway. We think of it every day.

Take steps to protect your home

We need to begin with a correction this week. A few weeks ago, I wrote about the use of airsoft/pellet guns. I mentioned it is OK to discharge airsoft/pellet guns in the privacy of ones backyard. However, a Boulder City ordinance misinterpretation occurred.

Crime does not take a holiday

Welcome. 2014 is off to a fast start. In the first few days of the new year, I learned crime was not on holiday. It’s definitely apparent that poor decision making is the foundation of our job security.
