New "Dangerous Dog Law" went into effect 1 July 06:  Under a recently passed law regarding dangerous dogs, it will be easier to prosecute the owners of dangerous dogs. Under the new law, if it can be shown that an owner knew his or her dog had bitten, attacked or endangered people, then the owner can be charged with keeping a vicious dog if it attacks someone else. If an owner knows their animal is dangerous they must restrain it and protect the public from it.  Under the new legislation, an owner found guilty of keeping a dangerous dog can be sentenced to up to a year in jail and fined $1,000. 

Stray Animals:  Please call the Harris County Animal Control Officer if you see stray animals in the community.  There have been several instances where lose dogs have been aggressive toward walkers and joggers.   It creates a dangerous situation for small children so please keep your dogs under control or inside a fence!  We have had a serious incident where a dog attacked a young person.   Please report all dog bites so the authorities can take action to protect our homeowners. 

Crime Alert:  Please report any suspicious activity to the Harris County Sheriff's Department (628-7136).

Pool News:  We have put new locks on the pool and tennis courts to ensure our facilities are safe and only used by residents.  If you need a new key, please contact George Averill.

Vandalism: We have had several instances of vandalism (graffiti painting on signs) in the pool and tennis area.  Please call the police if you see anyone vandalizing our property so we can prosecute them.
