Apparently some goods news for public safety in Coto de Caza, in spite of local governace
Posted By CotoBlogzz
Coto de Caza, CA – The First Quarter of 2014 Crime and Vandalism Report for Coto de Caza and Ladera Ranch shows that despite the apparent lack of concern for public safety on the part local governance, the crime rate in Coto de Caza is approaching an all time low. Keep in mind that the traffic incident rate is at an all time high, including a third traffic fatality three months ago.
The top three categories for Coto de Caza are theft, vandalism and fraud with nine, seven and four, respectively.
The Ladera Ranch rate similarly is at all time low, with 43 reported incidents of theft/larceny reported for the quarter.
Perhaps a disclaimer is order: After more than ten years tacking the Coto de Caza/Ladera Ranch public safety statistics, including traffic incidents and crime and vandalism, we have concluded that the data from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) has been more consistent and less prone to variations due to management changes or system updates.

As to the comment regarding Coto de Caza's apparent indifference toward public safety, consider that after the HeartBleed Virus was reported, we used the Qualys' tools to test the CZ Master Association's website, and it got a failing grade due to the use of obsolete security protocols -Qualys is a pioneer and leading provider of cloud security and compliance solutions -
Yet, in spite of this information, the Keystone Pacific, the association's property manager in its May 2014 Newsletter continues to promote the use of such website. See chart below for additional details on the Qualys test.
We contacted the association's insurance carrier to understand the implications of promoting a website under these conditions, and while we got an immediate email response directing me to call directly to the office, I have been unable to reach the principals.

| Traffic Fatalities in Coto de Caza |
Monday, February 03, 2014
Coto de Caza, CA - The
California Highway Patrol (CHP) traffic accident report for the fourth
quarter of 2013 ending December 30, 2013 (4Q2013) shows the traffic accident
rate in Coto de Caza is at an all time high at rates comparable to the ones when
the CZ Master Association board of directors fired the CHP with fatal
consequences in December 2005 and March of 2006.
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA – Qualys, a pioneer and leading
provider of cloud security and compliance solutions announced yesterday that
its newly released tool can detect the OpenSSL HeartBleed vulnerability

Using the Qualys tool, the CZ Master Association’s website
gets a grade of F. So does its security company’s, Universal
Protection (UPS) website
Coto de Caza and Ladera Ranch 1Q2011 Public Safety Review
Coto de Caza, CA –By its own words and actions, it is fair to argue that Coto de Caza’s local governance is not only apathetic when it comes to public safety, but its own actions actually result increase the risk to residents. Worse, seems like adults in Coto de Caza have similar views as the local governance.
Our research over close to ten years indicate that whether a community is safe or not, is primarily a function of residents and local governance, not law enforcement. Consider that when a city in Orange County is deemed the safest city, what about the other 11 cities or the unincorporated areas? What about Coto de Caza with the highest crime rate in history in early 2010. After all, only common denominator is that the OCSD is the law enforcement agency. What does the OCSD do differently in the safest city, as opposed to the least safe city under its watch?
Coto de Caza's Traffic Incident Rate at Critical Danger Levels
Coto de Caza, CA - While the Coto de Caza's total population has been shrinking for the last ten years, including placement of 17 property liens for the month of January 2011 out of roughly 3500 homes, the policies pursued by the CZ Master association board of directors, the local governance, have consistently increased traffic with a reduction in CHP patrol hours, with predictable results. Consider that for close to a decade, we have consistently shown conclusive evidence that there is a direct correlation between the extent of the CHP traffic enforcement efforts and the number of traffic accidents in the community.
Coto Continues on Dangerous Course of Traffic Incidents
While Incident Rate Lower, Still at Critical Levels
Coto de Caza, CA - The good news for Coto de Caza residents is that the quarter-to-quarter accident rate for the quarter ending March 31, 2011 is significantly down from the previous quarter. The bad news is that it is still at the same levels as when the community experienced its two traffic fatalities within a three month period between December 2005 and March 2006
Coto de Caza Fires the CHP - Again!
Coto de Caza, CA - The CotoBuzz Journal has documented the one-sided hate-hate relationship between the CZ Master Association board of directors and law enforcement agencies in general, and the California Highway Patrol (CHP) specifically (CHP). In an open board meeting for example, a board member called the Orange County Sheriff's Department (OCSD) extortionists! Despite the public abuse the CHP has received from the Coto de Caza board of directors ever since the board was coerced into bringing the CHP back for pro-active traffic patrol, figures indicate that the CHP has been doing its job: - The Chart below was published Sept. 30, 2006.
