Vehicle Burglaries Reported in Your Neighborhood – Remember to Lock it Up!
Boise Police are looking into several vehicle burglaries that have occurred recently in multiple neighborhoods. The burglaries appear to have occurred in the late night or early morning hours. The victim’s tell officers their vehicles had inadvertently been left unlocked. Victim’s report anything that was left in the car is being taken, right down to the loose change.

Officers say this is a good reminder for all of us to remember to lock our vehicles at all times and to remove valuables.  At this time, suspect information is limited. Anyone with information on who may be responsible for the thefts from vehicles is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 343-COPS, or log onto www.343cops.com, or text CRIMES or 274637, subject: Tip236. Tips can also be made via the Crime Stoppers Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/CSofSWIdaho. A citizen can remain anonymous. A reward of up to $1,000 is offered by Crime Stoppers for information leading to the arrest of criminal suspects.

Report Suspicious Activity
No police department can function effectively without the concerned assistance of responsible citizens so thank you! Law enforcement depends on you to call when you observe suspicious activity or behavior. Please do not feel that you are bothering the police. If it is unfounded then no harm done, but if it assists police then another crime is potentially solved or even prevented. If you report suspicious activity, consider the details – what, where, when, how; description of person, vehicle, and direction last seen.

Warm Springs Mesa Fire Wise Report – January 2014

Attached (see links below) are the most recent of BLM reports on the Fuels Reduction activities that we have been engaged in here on the Mesa with the technical support of the BLM and the SW Idaho RC&D Council providing fiscal oversight.

Please note that the Quail Testing site for the control of sage brush (above the Park) does not show up in this report and the number of chipping and fuel removal projects funded by the City of Boise either through Reinvestment Grants or Mini Grants (2009 – 2013) are separately funded and therefore are not reflected here.
