Public Safety Committee    

Our mission is to assure that Ocean Reef remains a secure and safe community. To that end, we will review our security, fine and EMS status, identify areas needing improvement and make recommendations to the Ocean Reef Community Association Board that would include costs and time line to accomplish these changes.  We will concentrate on ensuring that these services are provided to the community and on their perception of Public Safety.  We will not get involved in the day to day operations of the Organization.
