A MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD

HAPPY DECEMBER - What do you all think of our new decorations?

We updated our ARC guidelines at our annual meeting as well as getting a new Board member.

Well Neighbors it’s that time again. Annual dues, pay through your Townsquare account - get there by going to www.lakesideresidential.com.

If you can’t pay the $350 in full by the end of January, set up a payment plan early, don’t wait till May, that’s when the accounts get sent to the attorney.

$350 due by January 31st
if you don’t pay then $377.92 due by February 28th,
if you don’t pay then $446.34 due by March 31st,
if you don’t pay then it goes up to $556.41 due by April 30th,
if you don’t pay by then it goes up to $666.48 and you go to the attorney’s where it jumps up significantly.

YUCK, don’t let this happen it can screw up your year. If you had too much fun over the holidays, call now and get on a payment plan, pay it off by the end of May and join us for fun at the pool. If you had fines on your account make sure you at least pay the dues before the end of the January.

When you mail in your dues please make sure your address is on the check and that you make it out to Lakeside Residential CAI.

Calendar for the 2022 year will come out next month

We will be having our Annual Christmas decorating contest this year. We will have the gift cards and signs placed in the yards.

LAKESIDE RESIDENTIAL HOA MEETINGS

HOA meetings are held the 2nd Monday of the month at 6:30 PM. (Unless Monday is a holiday, then we will meet the following evening.) HOA meetings are held at the Cypress Crossing Christian Church, located at 15751 Cypress Rosehill Road, Cypress, Texas 77429. Executive Board meetings will follow regular homeowners meetings.

Residents who need to talk to the Board are asked to email Sherridda Williams at Sherridda.Williams@Inframark.com Office - 281-870-0585, Direct - 281-504-1350 be placed on the executive session agenda.

Our website is www.Lakesideresidential.com. By-Laws, Deed Restrictions, Pool hours and card applications, a map of the community showing sections by number, streets and entrances are all there to better help you with your inquiries as well as responsibilities as a homeowner.

WE LOVE VOLUNTEERS!

We would like to build a bank of volunteers to help with various activities throughout the year! Poolside events, National NIght Out and other holidays. Your time and efforts will be greatly appreciated by all. The more volunteers we have, the more events that can take place. Events are meant to bring our community together and they just don’t happen without these folks who give up their time and efforts for you. Unfortunately, they are taken for granted, when in fact, they are much appreciated by the Board.

BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR

Whether you’re a homeowner or a renter, the deed restrictions of Lakeside apply to you. We all want our neighborhood to look good, feel like home and keep up the value of our properties.

CONSTABLE PATROL 281-376-3472

As a reminder, we are patrolled by Harris County Precinct 4 Constables, through MUD 391.

Please add the dispatch number to your cell phones or post in a visible place at home in case you need support in a non- life threatening situation. If you don’t call to report a crime or suspected criminal activity in progress or suspicious persons or vehicles, no arrests will be made, the crime or criminal activity will continue and the Constable’s Office will not know that anything is going on. The social communities that we use to communicate with each other is NOT monitored by the constables. Posting on any media site is not notification to get assistance. Yes, we have those rare occasions where a Deputy, by pure luck, drives up on a crime or suspicious activity in progress. But why rely on luck when you have a telephone? The number to call is 281-376-3472. If there is a life threatening emergency, call 9-1-1. The Constable Patrol also offers a free vacation watch service, keeping your home under watch while you’re away.

ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL COMMITTEE

So you’d like to build an igloo or paint your house red and blue to pay tribute to your favorite sports team? These are easily identified as requests that would not be allowed in our neighborhood. But what are the kinds of things for which you need to submit a request for approval to the HOA? Basically, if you are making a change to your home or yard, you are required to submit a request. Some common requests are:

• Installing a pool
• Replacing windows, doors or shutters
• Building a covered patio
• Installing a storage unit
• Installing an irrigation system
• Replacing your roof
• Painting your home/trim
• Removing/replacing the trees in your front yard • Expanding your driveway

Keep in mind that approval may take up to 30 days - plan ahead! Submit your application early, so that your project is not delayed. The ACC committee is made up of volunteers and our goal is to provide a beautiful and consistent look to our neighborhood.

REPLACING YOUR FENCE

This one is a little more complex. If you are replacing your fence with EXACTLY the same fence (in the same place with the same size boards and the same pattern), then you don’t need HOA approval. However, if you are CHANGING anything - the pattern of the fence (including installing a rot board at the bottom), moving it, adding a gate or changing the material of your fence, then you need approval of the HOA.

A top priority for the association is to maintain property values, ensure the community is aesthetically pleasing while controlling personal preference in exterior design. A desirable curb appeal with a well manicured landscape can affect market stability and raise property value when selling or buying a home.

Please, remember to pick up after your dogs when you go out for a walk, there are plenty of trash bins and doggy poo stations. Also remember that your pet should always be on a leash when outside.
