The HOA Board and PAMCO Management Company have the ability to issue warning letters, impose fines, work with an attorney to place liens on properties, and to foreclose on properties as a last resort.
These processes take time to research, vote on, and bring to resolution. If you have an immediate safety concern, you must contact the appropriate City of Pflugerville department to get a quick resolution. Several helpful departments include Police, Fire, and Code Enforcement. If you are not sure which department can help you, contact the Citizens Communication Line at 512-251-4004.
Q: What is the purpose of a Neighborhood Watch?
Neighborhood Watches are put in place to help protect the community by identifying and observing anything that might pose a threat to the community, and reporting it to local law enforcement, fire, and EMS. In communities where there is already low or no crime, a Neighborhood Watch can serve as a deterrance to future criminal acts.
Q: What should I do if I see something susupicious or dangerous in my neighborhood?
You should try to gather information about what is going on and give that information to Pflugerville PD. You should NOT risk your safety or the safety of anyone else (including a perpetrator) by trying to "take care if it yourself" or "help the cops". Doing so can result in unwanted consequences, potential liability, and needlessly escalating a situation. There may be certain extreme circumstances where you should intervene, but please report what is going on first, and then follow the instructions of the police in determining your own course of action (if any).
