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.

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.

WEST MEMORIAL YEARLY ASSESSMENT COLLECTION PROCESS
High Sierra Management generates invoices for the annual assessments and they are mailed out in late November or early December. The maintenance fees must be paid in full during that current year or an installment plan set up by February 1st of the following year. The management company will send out a reminder notice to all homeowners who have not paid their assessment in full or set up an installment plan with the management company at the beginning of February of the following year. The homeowner is not charged for this letter. Any expense afterward has to be at the Owner’s expense. This expense is part of a process and not a punishment. It is something that can be discussed during our monthly or Annual meeting.
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.

DEED RESTRICTIONS
The purpose of Deed Restrictions in your neighborhood is to protect and enhance property values. They set guidelines for initial construction, perpetual maintenance and property use. As residents agree to abide by the majority view; the style and standards of a community are established and everyone benefits. For your information, restrictions are written by the developer before the first home is constructed and the Association is then charged with the on-going responsibility of enforcing them. 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.

Theater/Fine Arts
MILDRED’S UMBRELLA THEATER CO. MAINSTAGE SEASON
“What’s wrong with this picture?” is the playful theme and question attached to each show in Houston Family Arts Center’s (HFAC) 2015-2016 season. Entering its 10th mainstage season, HFAC orchestrated a line-up of all-encompassing shows that highlight the theatre’s award-winning musical expertise, all while enveloping theatre experiences full of odd, zany, mystical and dramatic turmoil audiences love. The first half of the season as follows:
JANUARY 29TH-FEBRUARY 21ST: “FOREVER PLAID”
On their way to see the Beatles’ American debut on The Ed Sullivan Show, a quartet of high school friends’ musical dreams begin and quickly end after a car crash involving a busload of Catholic schoolgirls.
MARCH 11TH-APRIL 3RD: “HARVEY”
What do you get when you mix a polite and friendly man with a strange, six-foot-tall, invisible rabbit named Harvey? A sister who wants to commit her brother, but gets committed herself and a town comically turned upside down on the search for a mild-mannered hero and his invisible friend. All performances are on the HFAC Garza Mainstage, recently named “Houston’s Best Gem of a Theatre” by the Houston Press, except for Peter Pan, which will be performed at the Berry Center.

NATIONAL BLOOD DONOR AWARENESS MONTH
January has been designated as National Blood Donor Month. This month is a special time to emphasize the importance of blood donation, to recognize past and present donors and to encourage donors to give blood and platelets for local patients in need. Winter can be a difficult time for blood donations across the country as a reduction in turnout can put local and national blood inventories at a critical low. Do something good for the community and donate blood this month!
