Notice
As you have noticed, the front gate roadwork is almost complete and it is certainly an improvement over the previous patchwork. The contractor will be adding speed bumps for the incoming and outgoing lanes in order to slow down the traffic as it enters and leaves Shelter Bay. During the short period that we have had no speed bumps, car and trucks have been observed entering and departing our community at extremely high speeds. Some of these have been registered at in excess of 45 MPH. The new speed bumps meet the published standards for such devices and are specifically designed to insure reasonable and safe speeds while entering and leaving our community.
There are two dogs that have been wandering throughout the community over the past month. These dogs are aggressive! One is a large yellow lab-pit bull mix, and the other is also a yellow lab mix. The dogs do not appear to be emaciated or hungry, but nevertheless are still aggressive, and have recently attacked and killed cats, and attacked a dog. The tribal Police have been contacted numerous times about these dogs.
Residents should be cautious when out walking with their dogs, or when letting their cats outside.
If these dogs are noticed, please call the Tribal Police at 911. They are aware of these dogs and will respond.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact the community office at 466-3805.
