Pass Requests

HOUSE WATCH

Recently, many of you heard about the House Watch Program for the first time and signed up for it. Unfortunately, this has brought a burden on our Security officers that is unmanageable.

The program quadrupled in requests in a month. Officers cannot perform the routine patrols that you have every right to expect and also physically check the homes on House Watch. The Security Committee has determined that the best use of Security manpower is to continue our road patrols and to revise the House Watch protocol.

Ultimate responsibility for home security remains with the home owner. House Watch was created for the owner who is going to be away from Fripp for an occasional short-term absence such as a vacation, hospitalization, etc. It was never intended to take the place of an alarm system.

We strongly suggest that if you have your house in the rental market, ask your management company to perform a periodic check of your property. If your time at Fripp is seasonal, you should consider adding an alarm system. You might ask a friend or neighbor if they would be willing to keep an eye on your property.

This message is intended to inform all owners that the program must start over effective October 10th with the following revised parameters.

  1. There must be a start date and an end date to your request.
  2. There will no longer be any open ended, seasonal or extended House Watch.
  3. House Watch forms are available below. The form must be completed and mailed or emailed to Security at in order for a home to be on the House Watch Program.

If you have questions, please contact Chief Binkowski at (843) 263-3307.
