Mission Statement: To help citizens of Baytown and surrounding areas bond together to retake our city from criminals and people who care nothing about the future of this city and our children.  The following form will be used to provoke and encourage local big business, owner/operators of storage units, apartment complexes and restaurants to become more secure and proactive concerning crime on their property and parking areas.

I, as a law-abiding citizen and patron of your establishment hereby serve you notice

I hereby boycott your apartment complex/retail establishment until I and my vehicle are secure in your parking lot and inside your establishment.  Your business must take steps immediately to provide your patrons with a feeling of security and community involvement or I will shop, live or eat somewhere else.  You as a business must prove to the citizens of this town that our safety is more important to you as a business owner, than just money.

* Go to the Form

*Print this document in duplicate and sign, etc.  Mail or hand deliver one copy to the establishment or store manger and keep the other in your files. Then notify OurBaytown.com via email of what exactly you did so I may track and make it public.
