City district notes vandalism costs and safety steps
Caro Vasey says vandalism costs are significant but lower than insurance for arson, with fewer deliberate incidents recently. Major losses come from broken windows and BB gun damage in poorly lit restrooms, while 85 percent of equipment is now marked and a new serial based tracking system is planned. Night custodial shifts and constant lighting aim to deter break ins and theft, with residents urged to report suspicious activity to police promptly.
