Highlights of DCSO Presentation
Lt. Chad Davis provided an overview and answered community questions at the informative meeting on August 27. He provided insights on the purpose of the Deschutes County Sheriff Office in Sisters and addressed questions and concerns expressed by PMV residents. The two main issues that were discussed: speeding and nuisance issues related to visitors at the Sokol Memorial Pond located in the southwest corner of PMV.
Lt. Davis and three deputies provide public safety and service. They routinely patrol Sisters streets including PMV. To help address speeding concerns, they have placed a radar speed tracking device in PMV. After receiving more community insights on the after hours activity at the pond and other areas, they are now expected to patrol our community at peak times when these situations occur, which is typically around 10 pm.
Lt. Davis encourages all PMV residents to feel comfortable calling the non-emergency phone number: 541.693.6911 to report
any situation that is unusual or against city ordinances. This includes excess noise after 10 pm, unusual activity and traffic violations. If reporting an incident involving a vehicle, provide them with two pieces of information: license plate number and vehicle color.
Fawn Season
Please due not interfere with mother nature by touching or picking up fawns. Their moms are feeding nearby and will come back for their young.
Oregon Department of Wildlife provide the following overview:
Fawns and other young animals are rarely orphaned, so please leave them where you find them. Until they are strong enough to keep up with their mothers, fawns are left alone while their mother goes off to feed. Mother deer will stay away from the fawns to avoid leading predators to their young. Does return at dawn and dusk to feed and/or move their young. The babies know to stay still and quiet, tucked into the grass where their mother left them.
