Great article, good questions, great observation! Because our City and County Governments have turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to crime and public safety, we the citizens going to have to step up until we can elect leaders who actually listen to and care about, their law-abiding, responsible, tax-paying constituents.
My partner and I lived in the Cosmopolitan for 3 years. They have a high expectation that residents make sure the lobby doors close completely behind them when leaving or entering. If someone is right behind you, you ask to see their key fob, which proves they live there. The same expectation is for the parking garage. After you enter or leave the garage, you wait until the garage door closes to prevent someone (in a car or on foot) from getting in. It sounds like a lot, but the protocol becomes second nature. In my opinion, residents of any building have the responsibility to take these simple, practical steps. How hard is it to make sure the door you just walked through closes completely? The problem requires people to be responsible, NOT TO END a good, tried and true bottle return system. That law got passed for a reason and we should not be held hostage by thieves!
We should all recycle as much as possible. We use up one green bag every 2 weeks or so and it is easy to take it to Fred Meyers. Plus you get a 20% bonus when you redeem them there and purchase there as well.
