HOW TO REPORT BACKYARD NUISANCE

If you have a neighbor with a terrible backyard such as garbage dumping, unsanitary conditions, unsecured private swimming pools, etc., you can go to Harris County Public Health and Environmental Services’ Website to file a complaint, www.hcphes.org/eph/complaints.

NEED CURB REPAIR??

Do you have a broken curb in front of your home... Did you know that Harris County Precinct 3 will come and fix it? It is as easy as going to their website and filling out the service request form. They will come and fix it for free (well, that is your tax dollars at work)! They will not fix the curved part that attaches to your driveway, that is the homeowner’s responsibility. You can go to www.harriscountytx.gov/ servicerequestform/default.aspx?pct3 and fill out the service request form if you have a broken curb that needs repaired.

QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? SUGGESTIONS?

Directors are your neighbors and are available to answer questions. We love having comments and suggestions from everyone as we strive to make Memorial Parkway a great place to live. Please contact us at anytime through the website.

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE

The dumpster at the rear of our parking lot on Cimarron Parkway is not for use by residents who want to get rid of their garbage or debris. This dumpster is for Association use only. We have a security camera on the premises, so if you’re guilty of throwing your trash in our dumpster, we probably have you on video tape.

SIDEWALKS

All sidewalks, within Common Areas, shall be maintained by the Association. All other sidewalks shall be maintained by the owner of the lot on which the sidewalk is situated. If any section of your sidewalk is uneven, which may cause someone to trip and hurt themselves, you are responsible for repairing or replacing that section of the sidewalk and liable for any injuries incurred. In some cases, a sunken section of a sidewalk may be caused by a water or sewer line leak. If you’re in doubt, you can call Precinct 3 at 281-4636300 and request that someone come to your home and check it out.

The Board has asked our Constables to take the appropriate action whenever there is a violation of the Transportation Code.

Be considerate of your neighbors and don’t park your vehicle in front of their house or block their mailbox. Also, think of the neighbor across the street and park so that you’re not making it difﬁcult for them to back out of their own driveway. All of our homes have at least a two or three-car garage and room for several cars in the driveway. We respectfully request that you refrain from parking on the street.

STREET GUTTERS AND DRAINS

We ask that you keep the street area in front of your home clean, so that leaves, pine needles, grass clippings and dirt won’t accumulate in the gutters next to the curb and end up being washed into the drains causing them to back up and ﬂood the streets. If you see someone putting grass clippings, oil or other debris down the drains, please contact the MUD District and the County at 281-463-6300. This includes lawn contractors that are blowing the leaves into the street instead of bagging them. Some of our residents feel that this was a waste of our time and are upset that we had written to them stating that they were getting this waste from a neighbor up the street. On the other hand, most of our residents understood that backed-up drains would cause ﬂooding on some of our streets and cleaned up their yards and streets regardless of where the debris came from. We ask that you do the same. THANK YOU!

Same-Day Ser vice

The parking of vehicles on the street has become a big problem in our neighborhood. School buses can’t pull close to the curb to pick up and let off students. In some cases, emergency vehicles may not be able to reach their destination if trafﬁc ﬂow is inhibited, especially when two cars are parked directly across from each other. Plus, vehicles parked on the street are those that are vandalized the most.

However, the Transportation Code of Texas, Title 6, Chapter 545, Section 302, states that .a vehicle cannot park closer than 15 feet to a ﬁre hydrant.

LAWN MAINTENANCE

Many of you have received letters regarding the need to re-sod the bare spots in your yard. We suggest that you take care of this matter in the next month or two. If there are trees in the yard that may be preventing the lawn from getting ample sunlight, you may have to get them trimmed. You may also have to lay new dirt so that the seeds can take hold. We also encourage you to keep your lawn mown and edged one a weekly basis, if necessary to maintain a neat appearance at all times. Remember to remove the weeds growing between the seams of the concrete on the sidewalk and driveway.

GARAGE SALES

MPCA would like to suggest that garage sales be conducted the ﬁrst Friday and Saturday of each month. This will eliminate the many signs that are out each week and also makes for a stronger turn out. Most area communities only allow sales twice a year. Memorial Parkway could be known for its “Once a Month” garage sales. Do not attach your garage sale signs to the STOP signs, as it is against the law and the County can issue citations for this. If a sign is on a public right of way, like the esplanades), they may be subject to ﬁnes of $500-$1,000 per occurrence per day. We also ask that you do not post your signs on the property of another resident. When your sale is over, please go back and pick up all of your signs.

ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL

All exterior changes to your property must be submitted to our committee for approval before you start any work. This includes, but is not limited to, painting, re-roofing, sheds, patio covers, fences, etc. All requests must be on our request form that can be found in this newsletter, online at our website www.mphoa.org or at the office. Please give as much detail as possible, so there is no delay in getting your request reviewed. Except for painting and re-roofing, it would be best to include a plat of your property that shows property lines and easements in relation to the location of your project.

DEED RESTRICTIONS

If you receive a courtesy notice from us regarding a violation of a deed restriction, contact the office within 10 days to let us know your intentions for resolving the matter, as we understand that some violations will require more than 10 days to get bids, find contractors and make financial arrangements. Please don’t wait until you get a second letter, or a third letter, which incurs a $50 fine. We will be happy to give you ample time to cure the violation. Memorial Parkway Community Association has inspectors that drive through the neighborhood checking for violations of our deed restrictions. They are not permitted to get out of their cars and/or trespass on your property. They only take pictures of violations that can be seen from the street.

Memorial Parkway

If you see one of our inspectors stopped in front of your home, please do not approach their vehicle to confront them. Their vehicles are identified with a MPCA sign on the car door that says deed restriction inspector. Some of our inspectors have been threatened, verbally abused and some have been followed. If they see you approach their vehicle, they have every right to drive off without talking to you. If you still have questions, call the office. If you get a notice of violation and you feel it was sent to you in error, please call the office. Our staff will look at the picture taken of the violation and confirm whether the address is correct or not. Our inspectors make every effort to make sure they’ve got the right violation logged to the right address with the right picture to go along with it. But with 2,219 homes to inspect and over 25 miles of streets, they sometimes get it wrong. If that’s the case, we apologize for the mistake and will remove the violation from your record. If you want clarification on a deed restriction, you can read the complete document by going to our webpage. It’s titled “Architectural Control Committee Guidelines.” The inspectors, MPCA Board and office staff are not in the business of harassing our residents, but are only trying to enforce the documents that all homeowners agreed to abide by when they purchased property in Memorial Parkway.

PET INFO REMINDER FOR DOG WALKERS

Be a responsible / considerate pet owner by picking up your dog’s waste from your neighbor’s yard when you’re out for a walk. There’s nothing more frustrating than stepping in fecal matter in your own yard when you don’t even have a pet.

LEASH LAW

Animals that are not properly restrained pose a threat to all our residents. While you may know your pet is friendly, an animal running at someone who is walking by is very scary for that person. Many children are afraid of animals and become frightened, which could result in the child getting hurt trying to avoid the animal. Harris County Animal Control advises, “All dogs and cats must be kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County,

FoundationsAcademy.com Texas. The custodian of a dog or cat is not authorized to have, harbor or keep any unlicensed dog or cat nor to allow any dog or cat to become a stray.” Restraint is deﬁned as “the control of a dog or cat under the following circumstances: 1. When it is controlled by a line or leash not more than six (6) feet in length, if the line or leash is held by a human being who is capable of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question. 2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle. 3. When it is on the premise of the custodian and the animal does not have access to sidewalk or street. While it may be nice to have your animal out in the yard while you work or play, it is against the law, unless the animal is properly restrained. Let’s all help keep our community a safe and comfortable place for all our residents by being responsible pet owners. This will not only protect anyone who may be walking or bicycling in the area, but also the pet owner who could be held legally responsible or possibly sued for failing to properly restrain their pet. Please remember that cats fall under the same laws as dogs and must be licensed and kept restrained when not on the premises of the owner. We’ve been told that spreading moth balls in ﬂower beds might keep cats away. To make a complaint or report an animal that is not properly restrained please contact: Harris County Precinct #5, Contract #87: 281-463-6666 Harris County Animal Control: 281-999-3191 Harris County Health Department, Rabies/Animal Control Section 2223 West Loop South, Houston, Texas 77027-3588 www.countypets.com

In order to ﬁle a formal complaint you must be willing to give the ofﬁcer your name, address and phone number for their records.

RESIDENT COMMENT FORM

If you have noticed a problem in the subdivision you think needs taking care of, please complete the resident comment form and turn it in to the ofﬁce. The subdivision gets a drive through inspection twice a month. Some problems may not be noticed at that time. It is helpful if residents can inform the ofﬁce in writing of such problems. Having complaints in writing is helpful, if the association has to take legal steps in enforcing deed restriction violations. Our subdivision was formed 35 years ago and we need to take steps to keep it looking nice so the value of homes will continue to increase.

“Tiny Roper”

LOCAL STUDENTS WIN CONGRESSIONAL ART COMPETITION

High school students from James E. Taylor and Memorial High Schools took top honors in this year’s Congressional Art Competition hosted by Congressman John Culberson (TX-07). Each spring, the Congressional Institute sponsors a nationwide high school visual art competition to recognize and encourage artistic talent. Students from each congressional district in America submit their work to their Representative’s ofﬁce and panels of local artists select the winning entries. This year, Culberson’s ofﬁce received 49 entries from nine schools. First Place went to Amber Wang of James E. Taylor High School for her oil painting “Tiny Roper.” Her painting will be displayed for one year at the United States Capitol. Miss Wang will also receive a trip to Washington, D.C. to attend a reception honoring winners from each district courtesy of Southwest Airlines. Second Place went to Emily Liu, also of James E. Taylor High School for her drawing “In Pursuit” and Third Place was given to Joy Lu of Memorial High School for “An Apple a Day,” both of which were created using colored pencil. Since the competition was launched in 1982, more than 650,000 high school students across the nation have participated in the annual event. Congressman John Culberson represents the Seventh District of Texas.
