COTO
DE CAZA CHP TRAFFIC REPORT FOR MAY 2006
June
22, 2006
If you
cannot measure it, you cannot manage it
The May 2006 CHP statistics for
Coto de Caza is consistent with the Coto de Caza board of director’s inaction
with regards to public safety: These
show an accident rate rapidly approaching the
record-breaking 2005 that lead to the first traffic fatality within Coto
de Caza in the last ten years.
An incoming board of directors
has opined that in order to solve the public safety issue within Coto de Caza,
it is necessary to make parents more responsible for their kids.
The question is, how is the board of directors going to do this?
Especially when the number of citations issued by the CHP between January
and February 2006 for kids 17 and under is the same as the ones issued to those
50 years and older!
The
May 2006 CHP report also shows that the number of accidents for Ladera Ranch for
the month is the same as the one for Coto de Caza.

All
nonsense. The role of Delegates is specifically spelled out in CZ's
governing documents related to our elections. And, as of July, 2006,
that role is even wiped away. Incompetent CZ Board Members Varo, Missing
Hill and Mezger can set up any Committees they want; but the notion of
Delegate representation has no relevance after July, 2006. Joe Morabito
