WEST MEMORIAL NEWS AND UPDATES

The Constables have asked that we remind everyone to please have your house number prominently displayed and readable from the street. This is for your safety and will assist them in being able to locate your home quickly should you need assistance. If your trash or recycle is not being picked up on Tuesday or Friday, please call High Sierra Management and notified them. If it is not picked, please do not leave it at curb until the next trash day. The trash and recycle must be out by 7AM in order for it to be picked up. We have a new deputy under our contract with the Constables, Deputy K.Z. Jenkins. Please extend him a warm welcome when you see him patrolling our neighborhood. Deputy Botard has transferred to the Animal Cruelty Division. We would like to thank her for her service to your community and wish her the best of luck in her new endeavor.

WEST MEMORIAL CIVIC ASSOCIATION

Several West Memorial Civic Association Board members volunteered to do oversight for Architectural Guidelines, Deed Restrictions, Pool, Park and Security.

The Board members oversee these particular areas and bring any concerns or requests to the Board for review. All requests for Home Improvements and Modifications (new roof, fence, painting of home, gutters, siding, etc.) need to be done on the West Memorial Application for Home Improvement and Modification and submitted to High Sierra Management. There is a copy on our website, westmemorial.org. The request will be reviewed, by the appropriate Board member or members and a notification sent by High Sierra Management as to the approval or denial of the request.

Pat Leo - Security (Constable Liaison) Elena Vanderloo and Joel Khan - Architectural Guidelines Open - Park and Newsletter James Newell and Scott Mosher - Pool Jerry Wells - Deed Restrictions Board meetings are the 4th Tuesday of the month and all residents are welcome to attend.

LEASH LAW “HARRIS COUNTY”

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. Veterinary Public Health (formerly called Harris County Animal Control) advises that “All dogs and cats must be kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County, 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.

PATROLLING CHANGES

Security on Duty may not always be in their Patrol Car; they have an opportunity to take training for Patrolling on Bicycles. So heads up… and keep our neighborhood safe for everyone.

They can be changed, but a very large percentage vote of homeowners is required to do so. Please let us know if you see a problem in the neighborhood.

GARDENING TIPS FOR APRIL

Garage Door & Opener Service

Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate a great many pests that die from various causes while in the bag. When you buy ‘loose’ mulch that is trucked to your home, you are also buying ants, roaches, termites, etc… Spend a little more on bagged material and save lots of future pest problems. Keep your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the top of your homes exposed foundation edge/ side. This will aid in minimizing pests in your home and allow for quick and accurate termite inspections.

Shrubs, Flowers and groundcovers - Trim all shrubs/plants at least 12” - 18” back from your home. Do your best to create a plant free zone that is 18” - 24” wide around your home. The exception is your lawn - it can grow up next to the slab as long as you keep it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab. The most conducive to termite infestation are groundcover plantings, growing high against your homes exterior or (especially) ivy that grows on your walls.

Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring spray eliminates overwintering pests and fungi while preparing trees to resist the pest onslaught of summer with residual pesticides. The fall spray also kills pests from the summer, prevents most fungi from occurring over the winter and puts your valuable asset off to a healthy winter’s dormancy.

Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide treatment to stop brown patch in its tracks along with other fungi. If your lawn is thin and weak in some areas, here are some important fundamentals: a) lawn aeration b) fertilization c) weed control.

Most important is proper watering: • Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more - then do not water.) • Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage.

• In severe drought, water every 5th day. • Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT. • A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper, stronger and more drought resistant roots. • Less watering also saves you money!!
