Crime and Safety

From the San Diego Police, told at the Town Hall 7/10:

There is a theft ring operating in Mission Hills. The thieves in this particular ring have been identified as Hispanic, and usually ride bicycles, so they are taking smaller items that might fit in a backpack. The thefts are occurring during the day; while people are at work or doing errands. Many times they ring the doorbell first and ask directions, to see if anyone is at home.

Please be on the lookout for yourselves and your neighbors, and report any suspicious activity.

Airport Tours available

Popular "Terminals to Tarmac" Tours Continue at Airport
Summer tours offer an inside look at over 136 Least Terns nests on east end of airport
Did you ever wonder why endangered Least Tern seabirds would make their nests on an airfield? The summer is the perfect time to view the nesting season that is underway and will continue until mid-September. There are currently 136 Least Tern nests in the Nesting Ovals on the east side of the airfield, the second-highest number of nests in any one year at San Diego International Airport (SDIA).

Do you know what "spooky eyes" or a "blast fence" are for? Have you always wanted a ringside view of aircraft arriving and departing the runway? Now is your chance to learn fun facts about SDIA. The Airport Authority is offering public tours of SDIA - from the terminals to the tarmac.

The Airport Authority's terminal and airfield bus tour offers an inside look at the airport and the airfield. Come and see firsthand how San Diego International Airport's proposed airport improvements are planned for the years to come. The bus tour starts at the Commuter Terminal and continues on for a walking tour through Terminals 1 and 2, covering public art and animal rest areas. Then, participants board a bus for a driving tour that circles the entire runway. The tour guide will point out the elaborate baggage system, security, control tower, fire station, Least Terns habitat and other airfield highlights.

The airport tours also provide an opportunity to learn more about planned near-term airport improvements. These include a ten-gate build-out of Terminal 2, a dual-level roadway in front of Terminal 2 and various parking, roadway and airfield improvements.

"We are committed to involving the community in future planning efforts at the airport, from airport tours to community meetings and more," said Thella Bowens, President/CEO. "We invite you to take a look behind the scenes of an operation that handles 50,000 arriving and departing passengers on 600 flights a day."

Tours are available eight times per month, and run from 10 a.m. to noon or from 1 - 3 p.m. Click here to make a tour reservation online, or call 619-400-2880. For more information, go to www.sanplan.com.
