Crime Alert in Woodland Park

I just got this information off of the Memphis Police Department's Cyber Watch Alert. There was a Residential Burglary at 9800 Woodland Bend (Addresses are rounded off to the nearest 100.) The report was taken on 11/11 at 12:00 A.M. The report didn't give any details as to what was taken. If any of you have any information concerning this, please let me know so I can pass the information on to residents.
I also got this report from COLA (Coalition of Lakeland Associations)
A neighbor phoned today...

While she was home around 12:45 pm 3 black men driving a teal green
ford Taurus attempted to break in. Apparently they pulled right into
her driveway and one of the gentleman went to the front door and rang
the door bell.
The owner did not answer and the man believing no one was home
signaled to two others in the car. The men proceeded to go around the
side of her house and knock and look into the windows. When they still
did not spot her and thought the house was empty they proceeded to go
to the back of the house and try and enter her second floor via the
staircase leading to the balcony. Once up there they spotted the owner
on the phone and booked. The cops were called and responded. Please
keep your eyes open. Things could of ended up much worse.
Be on the look out for a Teal Green Ford Taurus and report any suspicious activity to the Sheriff's Department 379-7625.

Sana Meeting November 13th 5:30

To All:

We will be having a Stonebridge Area Neighborhood Association Meeting-
Announcement: The City of Lakeland Planning Dept. is inviting Lakeland residents in the south part of Lakeland to a neighborhood meeting to discuss new land development regulations that have been in progress since 2007. The south area is considered to be the area south of I-40 to Hwy 64, from Chambers Chapel Road to and including Stonebridge. The City will be inviting as many neighborhoods from this area as possible to the meeting, at the Stonebridge Clubhouse, on Nov. 13, at 5:30. The new land development regulations could be adopted in 2009. They would combine and replace several regulations which control development in the City, and also may affect existing lots. For instance, zoning, subdivisions, tree management, landscaping, architectural, fences, etc. have been regulated, and will continue to be in the future, as amended with these new regulations. Some new regulations would be introduced. Rezoning of property could be an implementation step in this project, in 2009. Information about some of the activities of this project over the last eighteen months is posted on the City website at: http://www.lakelandtn.gov/government/plan-projects.htm More will be posted as drafts of new units of the regulations become available, or other related information is developed. There will be other types of public meetings at City Hall in 2008 and 2009 before the adoption of any new regulations could occur. But, the format of this meeting is unique, so we strongly encourage your attendance. Directions to the Stonebridge Clubhouse: Take Davies Plantation North from Hwy 64 turn left into Stonebridge
