Fireworks Prohibition in the Deed Restrictions

The Board asks that residents refrain from celebrating holidays with the use of fireworks and fireworks display.

Pets Reminders

Westheimer Lakes Community has had many loose dogs & cats lately. Please do your part to keep your animals safe and contained on your property.

Please Control Your Pets!

It is a deed restriction violation if your pets are not confined to a fenced backyard or within your home. They must not be allowed to bark all night or cause a nuisance to your neighbors. They must also be on a leash at all times when not in a contained environment. It is also the pet owner’s responsibility to keep ALL areas of the community FREE from pet debris when walking your pets. Please remember that cats must also be confined. 

If you happen to come across vicious dogs or ANY loose dogs of this nature, please contact Fort Bend County Animal Control at 281-342-1512. If you are familiar with the property address the pets belong to, please feel free to submit that information to Principal Management Group - Marci Birthisel at wln@entouch.net  - to pursue the deed restriction violation. Notification and ample time must be given to the owner to correct the violation prior to any further pursuit by the Association.

Remember that all pets should always wear a collar with ID tag! Pet owners should also consider pet microchips for identification in case your pet loses their collar/ID tag.
