Wildfire tragedies across our great state

Due to the wildfire tragedies across our the great state of Texas it’s prompted the Houston Mayor Annise Parker to sign an executive order for a temporary burn ban in Houston to include barbecue safety, open flames, cigarettes and other smoking materials. This includes Cullen Park 19008 Saums Rd. adjacent to Westlake Place subdivision.

We are asking that all Westlake Place residents be vigilant in our subdivision and while at our community center at 19725 Spanish Needle Drive. Safety is our number one priority.

Safety tips during this drought: Barbecue Safety • Portable barbecue pits, charcoal grills and other open-flame

cooking devices outside of a building should not be operated on combustible balconies or located within 10 feet of combustible walls or roofs or other combustible materials.

• When igniting the barbecue charcoal, use a charcoal lighter, not gasoline. Gasoline can flash violently in and around the pit causing serious injuries to anyone in the area of the flash. A fire extinguisher or charged garden hose should be handy while the fire is burning.

Check the pit frequently to ensure that it is okay.

• Hot ash and coals from barbecue pits and charcoal burners should be placed in a non-combustible container until cooled or thoroughly saturated with water, before being disposed.

Cigarettes and Other Smoking Materials • Another cause of accidental fires is carelessly discarded cigarettes or other smoking materials. They can smolder for hours and should be completely doused with water before being discarded in a safe manner, rather than tossed out a window or on the ground.

Texas’ arson law includes felony punishment for anyone whose cigarette recklessly sets fire to a building or injures anyone. Arson is a second-degree felony in Texas, punishable by up to 20 years in prison, but if a person is hurt or killed or if the fire involves a church, arson is a first-degree felony, carrying possible punishment of up to life in prison.

Reconstruction of Ramps Construction crews from Precinct Three Commissioner’s Radack’s Office were in our neighborhood Monday morning, September 19, 2011. Crews are working to remove and replace several of the existing ramps on Westlake Place Drive, the replacement ramps are handicap ramps. Several will be done at this time and the remainder will be done at a later date. Thank you for those whom have assisted in making this possible. Please be keep and eye out for pedestrians crossing the streets in our neighborhood be-careful and drive slowly.

No Parking Signs in Westlake Place Subdivision Residents of WLP, you probably have noticed the cul-de-sacs have been repainted by Harris County Precinct Three Commissioners Radack’s Office. They have been currently painted yellow with no parking signs posted on the islands of the cul-de-sac. Please abide by the newly posted signs.

The area in front of the community center previously designated as a fire lane has been repainted white and is no longer considered a fire lane. We are requesting that the WLP residents refrain from parking in this area unless absolutely necessary.

Paul Hawkins Assistant Manager of Engineering for Harris County Precinct Three gave WLP HOA Board’s members the rationale and detailed explanation for placement of the No Parking signs that we would like to share with the residents as listed below. “Regarding the islands that were painted within the cul-de-sacs, it was determined that if parking were allowed on the inside of these cul-de-sacs, then it was possible for parked vehicles to completely block access through

the cul-de-sac... but No Parking signs will be installed to continue to restrict parking only on the inside of these cul-de-sacs.” “This means you can still park in front of your home but not on the inside of the cul-de-sac.”

FM 529 Animal Hospital

The WLP residents believe this is a positive measure taken by the Harris County Precinct Three to help ensure the safety of Westlake Place. Thank you for all the time and effort taken to handle this matter and keeping are residents properly informed.

ARCHITECTURAL FORM/ HOME IMPROVEMENT FORM

All residents must complete a home improvement form for all improvements, including but not limited to: repainting (even the same color), re-roofing, new siding, sheds or outbuildings, new garage doors and basketball goals. The ACC approval must be given in advance prior to the work being started. We have specific guidelines for sheds and outbuildings. Call ACMP 281-855-9867 to request a form. Please mail to the ACMP address at the top of the form.

Trash Pick-up Stickers Belong On Trash Cans

The garbage pickup sticker you receive each quarter shows you have paid your invoice and are a valid customer. It contains your address and the expiration date. The sticker is designed to be placed on a garbage can. These stickers occasionally won’t stick even to a garbage can; use a heavy duty tape when this occurs. Remove your cans from the street as soon as possible. Do not place these stickers on your mailbox. They may well be stolen. Do not leave your garbage cans out for a period of time. The stickers might be stolen and the garbage cans could be stolen. A word to the wise should be sufficient.

Some of our residents are unclear on the concept of putting trashcans at the curb for collection days (Tuesday and Friday). Trash can be put out after 5 PM the night prior to the scheduled collection day.

Report Suspicious Activity

When you see suspicious activity & would like to file a report etc. call the non-emergency number. When a crime is in progress & or human life is a risk, call 9-1-1. If at any time someone observes a suspicious person or vehicle they should not hesitate reposting it to the Harris County Sherriff’s Department. Some residents may feel a sighting such as this may be “nothing” yet it is better to be safe than sorry. Again, let’s all be the “eyes and ears” for the law enforcement.

SUPPLEMENT OF LAW ENFORECMENT

Westlake Place HOA has hired off duty deputies employed with the Harris County Sherriff’s Department as a supplement of law enforcement for are community.

Patrol Service Report: Resident reported a gas can was stolen out of the bed of his pickup truck: • Residents need to be mindful of securing all valuables inside and outside of your vehicle at all times.

Monitoring of stop signs and school zones resulted in several citations issued for traffic violations: • Residents remember school is back in session, stay alert and drive at the posted speed limit.

Suspicious vehicle noted at the church parking lot, occupants were instructed to leave the premises.

Lowers Chance of Crime

Secure your home, your person, your children and your car. You are ultimately responsible for your own safety and the safety of your family. Keep that in mind during the upcoming months. While we are not a “crime haven” as so many subdivisions are in this era, we do have our fair share of resident and visiting troublemakers and criminals. Knowledge is power. Make it your business to know what is going on around your home, your street and around you at all times. Be alert, vigilant and ready to act defensively. Be safe.

As you start shopping for fall and the holidays, be aware of your surroundings in public places. If possible, shop with at least one other adult. Park in a well lit area. If you are insecure about returning to your vehicle alone, ask a security guard to accompany you. Always remember when shopping to lock your vehicle, take your keys and hide your valuables.

Obey Traffic Laws

We are seeing a lot of traffic in Westlake Place and Spanish Needle Drive, a lot of traffic throughout the subdivision is cut-through traffic.

However, several people who have been stopped by our deputy and the traffic enforcement unit are residents of the subdivisions.

The speed limit is 30 miles per hour. The stop signs are placed strategically to eliminate the possibility of a collision in the intersection.

When children are present, one should slow the vehicle’s speed to about 10-15 miles per hour. You will lose a lot of time if you are arrested for vehicular manslaughter – probably about 10 years. Slow down. Be alert and watchful when driving in the neighborhood.

Please respect the law and drive carefully. Children’s lives hang in the balance when you decide to drive recklessly.

The Sheriff’s Office is taking a zero tolerance approach to illegal parking.

Texas law on parking: • Park 30 feet from a stop sign • Park 20 feet from an intersection or crosswalk • Park 15 feet from a fire hydrant • Park no more than 18” from curb

Westlake Place

• Lock your car when it is parked on the street • Park with the flow of traffic • Do not block driveways or access to mail boxes • No parking on the sidewalks • No more than 48 hours parked on the street • Vehicles parked on street must have current registration and inspection

Nuisance Abatement Program: Illegal Parking, Clear Streets

As most of you know, the application of the Texas law against Nuisances both in the form of vehicles and health safety items has been an ongoing activity. What does this mean? The vehicles in driveways, which are not current on registration and inspection, are covered in some fashion, are on jacks or blocks or are inoperable are in violation of state law. The penalties for violating this law can be pretty stiff. If you have a vehicle in your driveway that falls into any of these categories, you will want to remove it. Park the vehicle in your garage or take it out of the neighborhood and place it in a rental facility. This will save you much frustration and money.

The Health and Safety Code is very specific about tall grass, rats, snakes, chemicals, paints, furniture, junk, building materials, etc., which are left outside for a period of time. Further, stagnant water is a major violation as it increases the risk of mosquitoes and the spread of the diseases they carry such as West Nile virus. Please keep your front and back yards clear of debris. Keep them mowed. Leave no standing water in your yard. If you have a swimming pool or pond in your yard, do not let water stagnate. Use appropriate chemicals and check the ph and chemical level on pools and ponds to make sure you are not fostering the creation of a health disaster. Penalties for some of these violations are swift and severe.

Westlake Place

Finally, do not leave refrigerators, chemicals, paint, old wood, etc., in your front or back yard. This, too, is a violation of the health and safety code. You will be cited by the proper authorities for the violation if you do not abate the nuisance.

While some of our residents are used to conditions in other nonrestricted areas such as the country or neighborhoods in far east or southeast Houston, a subdivision is a high density population area.

These nuisances negatively impact the neighborhood and the quality of life. That is the reason the Texas legislature has passed laws that exclusively address the unincorporated areas of Texas counties.

Please obey the Texas law and be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

VETERINARY PUBLIC HEALTH LEASH LAW

Animals that are not properly restrained pose a treat 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 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, harbored or keep any unlicensed dog or cat or to allow them to become a stray.”

Restraints are 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 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 or

November 2011

5

2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle or 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. Lets all help keep our subdivision safe and comfortable place for all 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.

FRIENDLY REMINDER Law: Prohibits Hand-Held Cell Phones in Texas School Zones

A new law, which bans hand-held cell phone use while driving in school zones took effect September 1, 2009. The law requires drivers to either use a hands-free set while using their cell phones while in active school zones with posted signs or discontinue use while in the school zone. I believe this is a much needed law considering the risks involved with cell phone use while driving. The law should help protect children who are entering/leaving a school and also raise driver awareness while in active school zones.

STREETLIGHT OUTAGES

Please report a burned out street light, any resident may call Center Point directly at 713–207-2222. However, for those with internet access, you may also make this report on-line. For those interested, the website address to do this is http://cnp.centerpointenergy.com/ outage. Then enter your contact details so that they can get back to you if more information is needed. On the following page enter the details of the light(s) with the problem. Just as you would if reporting the outage via telephone, you will need to provide the street address where the light is located and the six digit number that is prominently displayed on the front of the pole. Under normal circumstances the crew will out to fix the problem within seven working days.

Anyone noticing a streetlight that is out or some other malfunction is encouraged to report the problem to Center Point via either these two methods without delay. Our association is charged for every streetlight each month, irrespective of whether or not the light is functioning. So please help us get value for your hard earned money!

GARDENING TIPS FOR NOVEMBER

• Brown patch will continue to plague St. Augustine lawns as nights get cooler and humidity and rain continue. Discolored circles will appear in low areas almost overnight. Apply a fungicide recommended for brown patch according to label directions. Avoid walking through brown-patched turf. It spreads easily from the bottom of your shoes.

If brown patch appears in the same lawn areas every year, add an inch or two of sandy topsoil to eliminate those low spots.

• Fertilize St. Augustine turf with a winterizing formula to promote root growth over the winter months. Lower your lawn mover blades now and mow on a schedule that cuts no more than one-third of the grass blade away.

• As chrysanthemums and other perennials finish blooming, cut flowering stalks to the ground to permit all strength to be used in making root growth.

• Feed roses lightly, but avoid nitrogen fertilizers. Do not prune now.

Keep up spraying program and water deeply.

• Remove dead foliage and plant debris to help eradicate insects and disease organisms. Thin out and transfer volunteer seedlings. Beds made now will benefit by weathering before being planted. If soil is heavy, dig six inches deep, leave rough, cover with gymsum and strawy manure, water and allow to mellow.

• Bananas are more likely to bear fruit if the trunk does not die back in winter. Cut banana stalks back to six feet, wrap with newspaper and burlap.

One mentor, one student, one hour per week. KEYS brings adult role models into Katy ISD schools to motivate, encourage and inspire students on the brink of success. Mentors meet with their student on campus at a pre-designated time each week. As mentor and student build their relationship, they decide together how to spend their mentoring time.

Whether spent playing games, reading or just talking, that one hour a week makes a tremendous difference in the life of a child.

To be a KEYS Mentor, you need:

• A belief in the potential of every child • Criminal history background check in compliance with the FCRA • One hour per week to spend with a child, on campus during the school day, during the school year • Participation in a brief campus KEYS orientation before you begin • Successful completion of a KEYS application and subsequent approval process

Students Continue the Tradition of Strong Performance on AP Exams

Katy ISD’s tradition of increasing student participation and strong performance on Advanced Placement (AP) exams continues as the district recently learned that each one of its six high school campuses showed an increase in the number of students participating in the exams. In addition, every high school campus exceeded the state and national percentage of AP students making a qualifying score of 3 or better on the exams.

Katy ISD is among the 388 U.S. public school districts (one of only 23 in Texas) to be listed on the 2011 College Board AP Achievement List.

This list identifies districts that simultaneously achieved increases in access to AP courses while maintaining or improving the rate of students earning a score of 3 or better on the exams – the score that generally qualifies a student for college credit. In May 2011, more than 3,000 Katy ISD students took more than 7,200 AP exams, with 79 percent of the exams earning a score of 3 or better. This reflects a 24 percent increase from 2010 in the number of exams earning these high scores.

Advanced Placement and PreAP courses are designed to challenge students beyond grade level academic courses and prepare them for success in future advanced coursework. Katy ISD recognizes that support and encouragement from the campus, the teacher, and parents are critical to student success. Therefore, the district follows an inclusive enrollment model for AP and PreAP courses that provides support systems for student success.

Katy ISD offers AP courses in English, mathematics, science, social studies, fine arts, computer science and languages other than English.

For more information about AP or PreAP, visit www.katyisd.org/gt.

Same-Day Ser vice

Chamber members and non-members are invited to participate in the discussion on how the region addresses mobility challenges in the face of continued growth. There will be two sessions with a luncheon in between. The featured speaker is Commissioner Ned J. Holmes. Holmes is a commissioner of the Texas Transportation Commission, which oversees statewide activities of the Texas Department of Transportation. Additional forum speakers will be: Steve Clark, PE, ARUP; Mark Ellis, Gulf Coast Rail District and Texas State Representative Allen Fletcher.

Currently, the chamber is working with the Texas Department of Transportation on the re-designation application process of U.S. 290 to an interstate status. The status change could possibly allow additional federal funds toward the proposed improvements of U.S. 290 along with allowing greater visibility for domestic and international firms seeking to relocate in the Cy-Fair Houston market sector.

In addition, the construction of the SH 99; Segment E (I-10 West to U.S. 290) has begun with an anticipated completion over the next 18-24 months. Once completed, Segment E will allow an alternative route for commuters and businesses along U.S. 290 traveling to the West Houston Energy Corridor.

The Mobility Forum will be Thursday, November 3rd from 10:30 AM to 2:00 PM at the Berry Center, 8877 Barker Cypress. Individual tickets are $60 and sponsorship tables of 10 range from $600 to $2,500. Lunch will be served. For more information, contact Casey Cargle at 281-373-1390 or casey@cyfairchamber.com or visit www. cyfairchamber.com.
