year-end reporting., So, for Coto de Caza we present two views: A view reflective of the data as received
from the OCSD and another one averaging the last two quarters.

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.
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.

Rancho Santa
Margarita, CA - That great sucking sound you hear comes from all the jobs
leaving California for states such as Utah, Nevada, Arizona and Texas.
All thanks to the union, lobbyists and thousands of parasitic bureaucracies,
such as LAFCO, which are sucking the economic life out of the state.
Two elections are now
part of an FBI investigation into allegations of corruption at Cudahy City
Hall. Transcripts of wiretaps allegedly show that local officials believed they
could control election outcomes.
The DaVaro
Deception and the Gospel According to MezgerFor years, the
DaVaro Deception has led Coto de Caza resident’s believe that public safety was
the board’s number one concern, while repressing initiatives designed to
prevent crime & vandalism and save lives, and promoting personal agendas.
As complaints mounted
and calls for his termination increased, a blatant example of the most recent
deception is board member Jerry Mezger’s revelation that the Property
Management Company’s general manager is not a Keystone employee, but rather a
highly paid association employee “CJ works for the Board and not
Keystone. Keystone merely handles the payroll and other personnel technicalities.
Keystone has no authority to hire, fire, or discipline CZ’s General Manager”.
The Coto de Caza Board
of directors meeting held, appropriately on July 13, 2006, provided yet more
evidence of the involution of the safety committee:

Own Climate Change – An Inconvenient Truth: a Big Snow JobRancho
Santa Margarita, CA - The president of Coto de Caza’s local governance reports
that certain residents are surprised the community is doling out subsidies of
over $3 million/year, mostly as a result of the board’s misguided
decision to build a dog park at
the time it is facing a fiscal tsunami of its own making.
At the same time, the
local governance reports having worked for “most of the past year to identify
the various long term governance options available to the community”. It
fails to report, that the local governance has also been working with an
un-elected, unchecked body, LAFCO. Not unlike, the unelected, unchecked
Air Resources Board declaring today that AB 32 will not change the economy:
.” these bodies are tax-payer funded bodies acting more like unregistered
lobbyists, which is why we often referred to them as parasitic bureaucracies

The answer usually leads us to the What and the Why of the final proposal. Turns out that some 70-90% of all security breaches are directly linked to insiders.

Caza the GRUP Capital
of Orange County. - Rancho Santa
Margarita, CA - A review of the crime and vandalism figures for the communities
of Coto de Caza and Ladera Ranch for the third quarter of 2009 show few
surprises, although in both instances, the incident rates have inched
upward. Larceny, theft and fraud are the main factors contributing to the
increase in Coto de Caza, while fraud, vandalism and dis-orderly conduct are
the ones listed for Ladera Ranch.
In covering public
safety in the community for the last six years, I have learned that the GRUP
Syndrome aka Michael Jackson’s Syndrome – where adults refuse to grow up, is
not only alive and well in Coto de Caza, but is also thriving.
Coto de Caza
Traffic Citations – Trading Places- We have often referred to the
GRUP, Peter Pan and even Michael Jackson Syndrome – where adults refuse to grow
up - and usually associated with traffic citations. This time is no
different. Looking at snap shots of citations throughout 2008:
Public Safety
Data Indicates GRUPs Continue to be an Issue in Coto de Caza- Coto
de Caza, CA - The latest public safety data from the Orange County Sheriff's
department shows the crime rate in Coto de Caza continues an upward trend
that started at the end of December of 2007 and reached a peak by March of
2008.
What are the $1.5M Coto de Caza Gates
Good For? We have often presented irrefutable evidence that
gated communities are not necessarily safer than communities with no

Orange County
Crime Down, Nation's Crime Up - While the FBI is expected to report a 1.3
percent rise in violent crime nationwide in 2006 — an increase for the second
straight year, Sheriff Michael Carona today announced that criminal
homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny-theft
and motor vehicle theft decreased by 3.7% in jurisdictions served by the Orange
County Sheriff’s Department in 2006. “This is great news for Orange County.
Violent crimes decreased by 7.72% and property crimes decreased by 3.76% as
compared to 2005. The men and women of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department,
in partnership with our residents, community leaders, and business owners,
continue to make law enforcement a top priority. We are, once again, one of the
safest communities in the nation,” said Sheriff Carona.

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.
