Security on agenda for Lake Sarasota Meeting June 27

By -

Recently a flyer was distributed in Lake Sarasota suggesting that the neighborhood suffered a high rate of crime. However, statistics from the Sheriff's Office do not support this, and some are wondering what the neighborhood can do to ascertain the facts, and improve home security.

To learn more, a representative of the Sheriff's Office will speak and answer questions at our next meeting. To accommodate our speaker, the date has been moved to Thursday, June 27, 7 pm at Sarasota Alliance Church, 7221 Bee Ridge Rd.

A full agenda will include:

1. Sheriff's Representative on the facts about Lake Sarasota, and things the neighborhood and all homeowners can do to make their homes more secure.

2. An update on the Bee Ridge Road Widening, developments opposite the entrance, signage, lighting, etc.

3. Timing for neighborhood beautification and cleanups - Hina Park, the lakes, general cleanup, new flag.

4. Other business as might come up.

Water Moccasin or Water Snake?

At the Lakeview Park Clean-Up, some residents were picking up some branches of a tree when a dangerous Water Moccasin slithered out and dashed into the water. It might be useful to know one when you see it, but the differences between the venomous Florida Water Moccasin (or Cottonmouth) and the wholly harmless Water Snake can be subtle. Here are a few images and links that might help. First, here's a Water Moccasin Another shot of a Water Moccasin (click for a huge image): Here's the plain old harmless Florida Water Snake: Another clue (thanks Ray): When in water, Water Moccasins move on top of the water - almost as if they were gliding on the surface, like this: Water Moccasins are to be met with extreme caution. "When a moccasin is nesting or has her young in their nest it will aggressively defend that area," says Ray. "Moccasins have aggressively attacked people."
