Traffic Safety Announcement

In the last two years, we have seen a significant increase in arrests for driving under the influence of alcohol.  

Due to the threat to public safety caused by drunk drivers, we take this crime seriously and will take the appropriate action upon identifying an offender.  

We have also provided countless people with a ride home prior to them getting behind the wheel.  Remember the wheel can pertain to a boat, a golf cart, a full-size vehicle or even a bicycle.  Help keep our community safe, please don’t drink and drive.
