CHRISTMAS DECORATING CONTEST - JUDGING

BLOCK CAPTAINS

Do you want to know what’s going on in your neighborhood? BE A BLOCK CAPTAIN!

Block captains receive emails for the Block Captain Chairman, Bryne Liner. The emails let you know what’s going on in our neighborhood.

We ask that once the Block captains receive an email, they pass the information on to the other neighbors on their street.

Being a Block captain requires a relatively small amount of time, but the block captain plays a very important role in our community.

If you would like information about who your block captain is or would like to be a block captain, you can contact Bryne Liner at bryneliner@gmail.com.

DEED RESTRICTION LETTERS

Please help maintain Southcreek Village’s property values!

To ensure the aesthetic integrity of Southcreek Village is being maintained, periodic site inspections are performed by PMG each month.

If you happen to receive a deed restriction violation notice, please do not ignore it or disregard it. It is always best to reach out to the management company right away to let them know either that you have taken care of the violation, have plans to do so or are unable to do so right away. Please contact Katherine Follis with PMG at kfollis@pmghouston.com.

This communication is important because subsequent letters from the Association can result in additional costs for the homeowner for certified mail fees and even legal fees if the issue persists with no response.

Copies of Southcreek Village’s governing documents are posted on http://www.Townsq.io and on www.Copperfield.org.
