text: It seems to me that Mr. Graff is not just "insinuating" that the presence of Bascom Village has created theft/car clouting issues in his neighborhood, he's rather directly stating it has.   .....no problems before Bascom Village,  lots of problems since.....and low-income housing developments need to include a 24-7 security force.....to protect the neighbors from the residents of the development.  "This security precaution should prevent the multiplying incidents in our neighborhood. " 
  
  Wow....perhaps those low-income developments should also have high fences with razor-wire and a "manned" gate to keep those low-income folks contained at night so they don't roam the neighborhood and commit all those thefts.  That might be even more effective.....
  
  I'm sorry Mr. Graff has experienced thefts.  We have too and it's no fun.  However, I don't think it particularly fair or helpful to blame them on Bascom Village.
