 Mid-America Crime Free Inspections
During the week of July 10-14, Mid-America Crime Free Officers will be conducting random inspections in all our buildings as part of the recertification of our property in the Crime Free Multi-Housing Program. Doors, windows, locks, etc. will be checked to insure that we are following guidelines for a safe environment. Officers must schedule the inspections around other activities, so we will not know ahead of time which day(s) the inspections will be conducted. And we will not know ahead of time which apartments they will inspect. If your apartment is chosen for inspection, you MUST allow the officers to do so...no exceptions.
Crossroads Village owners and employees are committed to working with local police and Crime Free Multi-Housing Coordinators in order to keep our community as safe and crime free as possible. If your apartment is chosen as one of those to be inspected, please let the officers know they are appreciated.
Please report any broken door or window locks, missing or torn screens, etc. immediately so that the problem can be resolved before the inspection.
Did You Know?
Did you know that it is against the law to possess, sell or discharge fireworks of any kind in the city of Liberty? The discharge of fireworks on property is cause for eviction! Please comply. Have a safe 4th, and immediately report any fireworks violations to the police.

When is rent due?
Rent is due on the 1st of each month, and late charges begin on the 4th day of each month, at which time a Late Notice is issued, and late charges will continue to be added daily until the full balance is paid.
If rent has not been paid by the 10th of the month, and arrangements to pay have not been made, a 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit will be issued.
IMPORTANT: Do not ignore a 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit! Unless paid, or acceptable arrangements to pay are made within these 3 days, this will result in all daily late charges at the full rate stated in your lease being charged, along with attorney fees, court filing fees, and writ fees. This can add up to a significant amount in addition to the amount of rent owed.

Three winners this month will receive a bottle of Naturals Clear Defense Hand Gel, a perfect solution for safely disinfecting hands while on the go.
According to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hand hygiene is the single most important way to prevent the spread of infection. However, it's not always convenient to get to a sink and scrub your hands. Now there's a solution to keep your hands clean...even if you find yourself without soap and water. Naturals Clear Defense Hand Gel is great for anyone on the go, and a must for disinfecting hands at picnics and entertainment parks.
Only Naturals Clear Defense Hand Gel combines the powerful properties of T36-C5™ Melaleuca Oil with the natural astringent alcohol to freshen and clean hands. Included in the formula are deep-penetrating moisturizers...including black walnut, acacia, chaparrel, and honey...to leave your hands super soft without a touch of greasy residue. Simply squeeze a thumbnail-size amount on your hands and rub briskly.
Naturals Clear Defense Hand Gel evaporates in seconds, leaving your hands clean and fresh. And the whole family will love the small bottle that fits in almost everything from pockets to purses.
If interested in any of the products featured in our monthly drawings, contact Brenda for details on where to get them.
Congratulations to Alan R., Kay H., Karen N., Renee M., and Pam H., who each won a travel size tube of Renew Intensive Skin Therapy in our drawing last month!
