Friendly Reminders from Your HOA

DEED RESTICTION VIOLATIONS
From PMG of Houston Management
Trash bins need to be out of view from the street. That means you cannot have your trash bins on the driveway, side of home or behind columns in front of garage door. You will get a letter and if you do not comply we will send you to the attorney just for this trash bin violation and you will receive the attorney charge on your account. Please move your trash bins out of view from the street.
LEASH LAWS
There have been several complaints about dogs either running loose in the neighborhood or being walked but not a leash. It is annoying and sometimes frightening, when dogs run up to a homeowner so, safety reasons, please keep your dog on a leash. FYI-Excerpt from: The Khan Law Firm Harris County Animal Control clearly states that “all dogs and cats must be kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County, Texas.” In other words: dogs are not permitted to run around at large; and they always must be kept under direct physical control (on a leash) of their owner.
- The best way is to call the Constables office and make a noise complaint. 24-hour dispatch 281-376-3472.
- Call from outside when the dogs are barking.
- Request from the operator who answers the phone exactly what to ask for a formal noise complaint.
- Tell them you would like to meet the constable to make a formal complaint.
- The best way is to talk to your neighbor, but if you don’t feel comfortable call the Constable office.

SWEEPING OR BLOWING DEBRIS INTO STORM DRAINS
When sweeping or blowing debris to the front; curb. Please pick it up and dispose of it properly. According to Herman L. Sanders of the Harris County Watershed Protection Group, "Sweeping grass, leaves, grass clippings, yard waste, etc., into a storm drain is cited as a civil solid-waste violation of State Municipal Solid Waste rules, Chapter 330.15 (a)(1). Civil penalties are $50 to $25,000 per day per violation. Criminal penalties, if pursued, are $500 to $100,000 per day per violation." Please keep the front of the driveway and curbs cleaned to keep debris from going into the street gutters.

SOLICITATION IS AGAINST OUR DEED RESTRICTION
Please do not purchase from solicitors and ask them to leave our neighborhood. Although it is difficult to enforce this violation we can work together to keep this activity at a minimum.
