PMG contacted Gates In Motion for a bid to gate the Cypress Rosehill and Huffmiester entrances. The cost for gating those two entrances would be approximately $98,000. That price does not include a gate at the entrance from our neighboring community of Cypress Mills. The cost to add an additional gate between Sydney Harbour and Cypress Mills would be approximately $30,000. It is important to keep in mind that street maintenance becomes the responsibility of our neighborhood if we gate our community. This and the upkeep on the gates, could become very costly for our residents. Additionally, we would need to build and maintain a fence along San Succi.
YARD OF THE MONTH
Please join the Landscaping Committee in congratulating Lisa Patton of 18023 Dunoon Bay Ct. for winning Yard of the Month for February. “Thank You” goes out to Ms. Patton for helping to keep Sydney Harbour a beautiful place to live.
GATES
The Sydney Harbour Board of Directors has had inquiries from our residents about the possibility of gating our community. The Board requested that PMG look into the cost of doing that.
WHAT: HOA Annual Meeting WHEN: Wednesday, March 9th WHERE: TBD
All of these costs would be passed on to us, as homeowners, in the form of higher yearly assessments. We anticipate an increase of $200 per year to cover those costs, if we implement the changes.

San Antonio The city of San Antonio also has regulations governing solicitations, though the laws there relate mostly to handbills and other flyers that are commonly left on door handles or steps. Section 21-3 of the San Antonio Code of Ordinances states that person may leave advertisements at any residence that displays a 3 by 4 inch weatherproof sign that states “no solicitation,” “no advertisements” or “no handbills” in 2/3 inch letters. This law does not, however, apply to government, political, religious or charitable organization distributing flyers for their respective causes.

STREET LIGHT OUTAGE
Please report any street light outage to Centerpoint. Repairs can take up to 3 weeks to be repaired, but the most recent request we made took only 2 days! It is imperative that residents participate in reporting outages, as there is no formal nighttime inspection done by management or Centerpoint. It’s simple, just go to www.centerpointenergy.com/outage and fill in the required information. You’ll need the 6 digit number located at the base of the light pole and an approximate address/location of the outage. You may also report it by dialing 713-207-2222.
MARCH GARDENING TIPS
VEGETABLES • Plant vegetables such as tomatoes, sweet corn and snap beans and pepper, as well as cucumbers, lima or butter beans, cantaloupe, okra (if the soil has warmed sufficiently - 70 degrees F. or higher), southern peas, pumpkin, squash, peanuts and watermelon. LAWN • Re-sod or replant as needed with turfgrasses adapted to this part of Texas and suited to the planting location (shade or sun). • When resodding semi-shaded areas with St. Augustine, use ONLY the variety Floratam for best pest resistance. See www.plantanswers.com/grass. htm. TREES AND SHRUBS • Plant container-grown trees and shrubs as soon as possible. In shady areas, where grass is difficult to grow, consider planting a dependable groundcover such as English ivy, Asian jasmine, vinca or one of the prostrate junipers. • Prune spring flowering and evergreen shrubs during early March. However, be sure to prune spring flowering shrubs after they have bloomed. • Fertilize with a pre-plant application of a slow-release fertilizer analysis such as 19 - 5 - 9 at the rate of 3 pounds per 100 square feet of garden planting area. Early March is the ideal time to fertilize landscape plants because you give them food just before the spring growing season starts.

The Cypress Woods boys earned 240 points to clinch first place, followed by second-place Jersey Village (210) and third-place Cypress Lakes (206). “They wrestled well. They got after it,” said Michael White, Cypress Woods head wrestling coach. “We had two goals for this tournament: the first one was to make weight; the second one was to compete. They made weight both days and they competed their butts off.” Trahan was named District 106A Coach of the Year after the tournament.

Fox, a 6-foot-3 guard who signed with Kentucky, will serve as CFISD’s firstever male representative in the game. “I’m excited to represent Cypress Lakes and CFISD as a McDonald’s AllAmerican. It’s one of many goals I set for myself coming into the season and it feels good to have accomplished it,” he said. “I’ve been told I’m the first male player to be a McDonald’s selection in our district, and I hope it’s a trend more players can follow.” Mulkey, a 6-foot-9 center who signed with Oklahoma, follows in the footsteps of former Cy-Fair High School stars and current WNBA standouts Nneka and Chiney Ogwumike, who played in the 2008 and 2010 McDonald’s All American Games, respectively.

It means a lot and it’s a huge honor. I think it’s really awesome that De’Aaron and I are two athletes coming out of [CFISD] to play in the game. I think that says a lot about Cypress.” The McDonald’s restaurant located at 9715 Barker Cypress Road will hold a celebratory send-off event for Fox and Mulkey on Tuesday, March 8 from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Visit mcdonaldsallamerican.com for more information.
“It’s rewarding. To be able to go undefeated in our district is an accomplishment for these ladies,” said Virginia Flores, Cypress Woods head coach. “It says a lot about their work ethic, time and sacrifice. The first playoff game out will be a big one for them, and we will have to see how they adjust.”
