Woodwind Lakes Street Lighting Street lighting improves pedestrian visibility and personal security. On streets with lots of trees, street lighting scaled to pedestrians (low lights) illuminates the sidewalks even after the trees grow big and tall. Street lighting improves safety by allowing pedestrians and motorists to see each other. It also adds to personal safety and aesthetics. While most school walking activity occurs during daylight hours, the morning school trip in the middle of winter often occurs during hours of darkness. Also many school activities occur during nighttime hours.

Sections 1, 2 and 3.

Street lighting is a key organizing streetscape element that defines the nighttime visual environment in neighborhood settings. Street lighting includes roadway and pedestrian lighting in the public right-of-way. Street light poles and fixtures can also create a defining visual characteristic during daylight hours. Quality street lighting helps define a positive neighborhood character and supports nighttime activities. The quality of visual information is critical for both traffic safety and pedestrian safety and security.Lighting should be designed not only for vehicular traffic on the roadways but also for pedestrians on sidewalks and pedestrian paths. The owner of the property in which the tree, hedge or shrub is situated is responsible for ensuring that the foliage is properly maintained. The Woodwind Lakes HOA can't fund pruning of private trees from around established street lights. Please be a good neighbor and prune your tree to allow the street lights to properly light up our sidewalks for residents’ safety.

This question comes up often and the assumption seems to be that Harris County is responsible for the street trees planted between the sidewalk and the street. The correct answer, however, is that maintenance and care of the street tree is the responsibility of the homeowner. Please make sure your tree branches to do not block street lighting from the sidewalks. (Please check deed restrictions for violation). Woodwind Lakes - September 2018

Pour Yourself a Glass of Immunity

You’ve probably crunched on Jicama in your favorite salsa or maybe dunked it in hummus on a hot summer day. It’s time to rethink this underrated veggie and boost your immune system by blending it up into a detoxifying drink with this Sanoviv recipe.

¼ cucumber, cubed ¼ cup cilantro ¼ lime, peeled ¼ avocado, peeled

Ingredient Benefits: Jicama's fiber is infused with oligofructose inulin. Inulin promotes good bacteria growth that maintains both a healthy colon and balanced immunity.

Preparation 1. In a blender, add a small amount of water and a few ice cubes. 2. Blend all ingredients on high and enjoy.

It also promotes bone health by enhancing the absorption of calcium your body receives from other foods. Avocados make this detox creamy and contain many antioxidants that strengthen your immune system. Don’t be afraid of the higher fat content. Avocados actually contain large amounts of healthy fats—commonly referred to as “good fats”—that can help lower bad cholesterol when eaten in moderation. Jicama-Cilantro Detox Ingredients 1 cup jicama, peeled and chopped into small cubes

Try this immunity refresher next time you’re feeling down. Sanoviv Medical Institute, founded by Dr. Myron Wentz, is a fully licensed hospital that offers a unique blend of conventional, alternative and integrative programs to help maintain your good health and treat a wide range of diseases.
