A REMINDER TO ALL<br />

WESTMINSTER VILLAGE RESIDENTS:<br />

Do not mail anything to 17042 or 17046 Westminster <strong>Village</strong> Ct.<br />

Westminster <strong>Village</strong>’s mailing address is:<br />

Westminster <strong>Village</strong> H.O.A.<br />

16650 Pine Forest Ln.<br />

Houston, TX. 77084<br />

Any mail sent to 17042 or 17046 Westminster <strong>Village</strong> Ct. will be<br />

forwarded by the post office and may result in a delay in responding<br />

to your questions/requests.<br />

MONTHLY BOARD MEETINGS<br />

Monthly meetings are generally held on the third Tuesday of each<br />

month at 7 PM at the MUD 16 Recreational Center located at the end<br />

of Westminster Landing.<br />

ACC REQUESTS<br />

Friends, we respectfully request that you submit an ACC request to<br />

the Westminster <strong>Village</strong> HOA, Inc, for changes to your yard or home.<br />

Things like sheds and back yard patios, visible from the street,<br />

require prior approval from the ACC committee. Changes to your<br />

yard, including even minor landscaping, rocks and bushes require<br />

approval from the Home Owner Association. The rule of thumb is you<br />

can’t make any changes to your yard or home that are visible from the<br />

street without prior approval. Please help keep expenses down by first<br />

getting permission to make changes instead of the HOA having to mail<br />

you a deed restriction letter.<br />

ATTENTION DOG OWNERS<br />

ACMP has received complaints concerning<br />

people walking their dogs in the park and<br />

letting them do their “business.” By law<br />

you are supposed to clean up after your<br />

pet. Pet owners should have respect for<br />

our park and the others who wish to use<br />

this park. This is not a dog park, this area<br />

is for residents to enjoy. Please keep your<br />

dogs out of the park.<br />

WESTMINSTER VILLAGE HOA<br />

Copies of the Agenda and minutes are placed at the entrance Marquise<br />

in front the Gazebo and from time to time are mailed to you.<br />

We invite you to come to the meetings and work in a committee:<br />

architectural, watch neighbors, budget, recreational, Christmas or<br />

fraternity committee.<br />

It’s good for neighbors to take care of one another.<br />

TEXAS TRANSPORTATION CODE - JUNKED VEHICLES<br />

§ 683.071. DEFINITION. In this subchapter, “junked[0]<br />

vehicle[0]” means a vehicle[0] that is self-propelled and:<br />

(1) does not have lawfully attached to it:<br />

(A) an unexpired license plate or<br />

(B) a valid motor vehicle[0] inspection certificate and<br />

(2) is:<br />

(A) wrecked, dismantled or partially dismantled or discarded or<br />

(B) inoperable and has remained inoperable for more than:<br />

(i) 72 consecutive hours, if the vehicle[0] is on public property or<br />

(ii) 30 consecutive days, if the vehicle[0] is on private property.<br />

Acts 1995, 74 th Leg., ch. 165, § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1995. Amended by Acts<br />

1999, 76 th Leg., ch. 746, § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1999; Acts 2001, 77 th Leg., ch.<br />

798, § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 2001.<br />

Translation: Do not leave junk cars on your property. The fines are<br />

substantial. If your car does not operate and you want to keep it,<br />

put the vehicle in your garage. If your car is not inspected and not<br />

registered, put it in the garage. A word to the wise should be sufficient.<br />

2 Westminster <strong>Village</strong> | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2017</strong>


A TALE OF TWO SUPER BOWLS<br />

2004 VS. <strong>2017</strong><br />

The last time Space City hosted the Big Game<br />

was 13 years ago. Needless to say, a lot has<br />

changed for the fourth-largest city in the U.S.<br />

Here’s a quick peek at Houston of Super Bowls<br />

Past vs. Houston of <strong>2017</strong>:<br />

Population:<br />

In 2004 the Houston metro population was 5.1<br />

million; in <strong>2017</strong> an estimated 6.6 million will call<br />

Houston home.<br />

Transportation:<br />

• In 2004, Houston airports served 44 million<br />

passengers; in 2015 that figure grew to 55 million<br />

and is expected to continue to expand in 2016<br />

with new direct service.<br />

• In 2004, the two passenger airports served 100<br />

domestic and 50 international destinations; in<br />

2015 that figure grew to 124 domestic and 74<br />

international destinations. In 2004, Houston had<br />

7.5 miles of rail; in <strong>2017</strong> it will boast nearly 23 miles.<br />

Hospitality and Tourism:<br />

• In 2004, the Houston area had roughly 44,000<br />

hotel rooms; by <strong>2017</strong> there will be more than<br />

84,000 hotel rooms.<br />

BEST THINGS TO BUY IN FEBRUARY<br />

<strong>February</strong> is a good month for deals - and most<br />

consumers are ready to open their wallets again.<br />

Retailers know this and that, combined with a<br />

few holidays, means the promotions are flying.<br />

Here’s what’s likely to be on sale this month:<br />

TAX PREP SOFTWARE. No, it’s not romantic. But it<br />

must be done, so you might as well do it at a discount.<br />

RetailMeNot has a deal on TurboTax that could get<br />

you up to $20 off and Coupons.com has a similar deal<br />

for 20% off H&R Block software.<br />

PRESIDENT’S DAY SALES. Dealnews says we’re<br />

likely to see deals at clothing and department<br />

Westminster <strong>Village</strong> | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2017</strong><br />

• Space Center Houston, the visitors center for<br />

NASA Johnson Space Center, saw attendance of<br />

just over 704,000 in 2004; in 2016 that figure is<br />

expected to be close to 1 million visitors.<br />

• In 2004, about 17 million people visited the<br />

Houston Galleria (the largest shopping complex<br />

in Texas); in 2015 more than 30 million people<br />

passed through the Galleria.<br />

• In 2004, roughly 6,000 restaurants and nightlife<br />

establishments were active in the Houston<br />

area; in 2015 that number had expanded to<br />

approximately 10,000.<br />

Parks:<br />

• In 2004, Discovery Green was just a parking lot.<br />

Since it’s opening in 2008, the 12-acre park has<br />

become downtown’s premiere green space and<br />

entertainment destination. Discovery Green and<br />

Kinder Lake will serve as party headquarters for<br />

the Super Bowl LIVE festival leading up to the big<br />

game.<br />

• In 2004, Hermann Park, the heart of the Houston<br />

Museum District, had recently undergone a $9<br />

million renovation. Since then more than $46<br />

million has been spent to add major additions<br />

like McGovern Centennial Gardens, the Bill Coats<br />

Bridge, extensive landscaping and Lake Plaza.<br />

stores during the upcoming three-day weekend,<br />

so if you’re in the market for clothing, bedding,<br />

tools or other household items, you might want<br />

to wait it out.<br />

PERFUME. It makes a great Valentine’s Day gift.<br />

Look for gift-with-purchase deals or fragrance<br />

gift sets, says the Wall Street Journal.<br />

CANNED GOODS. Stick with us - we know<br />

this isn’t the normal best buy. But <strong>February</strong> is<br />

National Canned Food month, according to<br />

Daily Finance and grocery stores are likely to be<br />

running discounts to celebrate. Stock up on your<br />

favorite items or buy a few things to donate to a<br />

local charity or food pantry.<br />

Sports:<br />

In 2004, Houston was home to four major league<br />

sports teams with the Astros, Rockets and<br />

Texans; now two more teams have joined the<br />

roster, the Houston Dynamo and Dash (soccer)<br />

Technology:<br />

• In <strong>2017</strong>, Reliant and NRG Energy have installed<br />

a dozen NRG Go stations across the facilities.<br />

These stations each have 120 portable power<br />

chargers available for free on game days, so fans<br />

can grab a charger and keep using their phones<br />

to take action shots, share moments and keep<br />

connected.<br />

Pre-Game Festivities:<br />

In 2004, a record 200,000 attended the “NFL<br />

Experience” inside the GRB. In <strong>2017</strong>, the 10-day<br />

Super Bowl LIVE festival will spread over 35<br />

blocks of downtown and is expected to attract<br />

over 1 million fans with free concerts by some<br />

of the biggest names in music, local culinary<br />

experiences, NFL fan games and much more.<br />

CANDY. After Valentine’s Day, that is - all of those<br />

heart-shaped boxes and traditional romantic<br />

candies will be going on sale. Treat yourself or<br />

celebrate a day late. If your valentine is a bargain<br />

hunter, he or she won’t mind.<br />

As for what to skip, may we suggest dinner out?<br />

On <strong>February</strong> 14 th , at least. Many restaurants<br />

have prix fixe menus, which often means jacked<br />

up prices and limited selection. You’re better<br />

off cooking at home. Serious Eats has a large<br />

collection of recipes for two.<br />

FEBRUARY IS NATIONAL<br />

CHILDREN’S DENTAL HEALTH MONTH<br />

The American Dental Association, along with the ADA Foundation, is<br />

pleased to provide you with the <strong>February</strong> <strong>2017</strong> National Children’s<br />

Dental Health Month (NCDHM) slogan, “Choose Tap Water for a Sparkling<br />

Smile.” This month-long national health observance brings together<br />

thousands of dedicated dental professionals, healthcare providers and<br />

educators to promote the benefits of good oral health to children, their<br />

caregivers, teachers and many others.<br />

Developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental<br />

visits helps children to get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and<br />

gums. To access free online resources that can help you with teaching<br />

children about good oral health, visit ADA.org, click on Public Programs<br />

and then National Children’s Dental Health Month.<br />

CHILDREN’S ORAL CARE<br />

Take good care of your child’s baby teeth. They do eventually fall out<br />

but until they do, baby teeth play an important role in helping your child<br />

bite and chew food, and speak clearly. Many of the same treatment and<br />

evaluation options that adults have are also available to kids. These<br />

include X-rays, dental sealants, orthodontic treatment and more.<br />

WIGGLY TEETH - When a child is about 6 years old, his/her teeth will<br />

begin to come loose. Let your child wiggle the tooth until it falls out on<br />

its own. This will minimize the pain and bleeding associate with a lost<br />

tooth.<br />

CAVITIES - Cavities can develop when sugar-containing foods are<br />

allowed to stay in the mouth for a long time. Bacteria that live on the<br />

teeth feast on these bits of food and can eat away at tooth enamel. Saliva<br />

washes away the acid between meals, but if your child is always eating,<br />

there may not be time for this acid to get washed away.<br />

TEXAS CHRISTIAN ALUMNI -<br />

STAR STUDENT & STAR ATHLETE<br />

Texas Christian School Class of 2016, Michael Johnson received a full ride<br />

scholarship to Chadron State University where he is a star athlete and student.<br />

Due to his dedication and skill, Michael was named the Eagle of the Week for<br />

Chadron State. Chadron wrote that “Johnson had his first career double-double<br />

in an Eagle win during Christmas break. The freshman was the key to victory<br />

down the stretch, grabbing several defensive rebounds and following up with<br />

free throws to finish with 18 points and 13 rebounds, which were both highs for<br />

either team in the game. In the final three minutes, Johnson had seven of the<br />

Eagles’ final 15 points, adding four critical rebounds and one steal during that<br />

span.” Texas Christian is proud of the student athlete Michael has continued to<br />

be. Keep shining for the Lord Michael!!!<br />

foods that weren’t allowed in Lent. Giving up foods: but not wasting them. In the<br />

old days there were many foods that observant Christians would not eat during<br />

Lent: foods such as meat and fish, fats, eggs and milky foods. So that no food was<br />

wasted, families would have a feast on the shriving Tuesday and eat up all the<br />

foods that wouldn’t last the forty days of Lent without spoiling. The need to eat up<br />

the fats gave rise to the French name Mardi Gras; meaning fat Tuesday. Pancakes<br />

became associated with Shrove Tuesday as they were a dish that could use up all<br />

the eggs, fats and milk in the house with just the addition of flour.<br />

You are invited to St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church’s Shrove Tuesday Pancake<br />

Supper on <strong>February</strong> 28 th from 5:30-7 PM. We will eat pancakes and play bingo!<br />

Shrove Tuesday originated during the Middle Ages. Food items like meats, fats,<br />

eggs, milk and fish were regarded as restricted during Lent. To keep such food<br />

from being wasted, many families would have big feasts on Shrove Tuesday. The<br />

English tradition of eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday came about as a way to<br />

use as much milk, fats and eggs as possible before Ash Wednesday began. In<br />

France, the consumption of all fats and fatty foods on this day coined the name<br />

“Fat Tuesday” or Mardi Gras.<br />

FREE! SHROVE TUESDAY PANCAKE DINNER<br />

Take a break from cooking dinner on Tuesday, <strong>February</strong> 28 th ! Join us<br />

at Epiphany Lutheran Church for our Annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake<br />

Dinner. Dinner is served from 5-7 PM. Enjoy some Mardi Gras music<br />

while you eat dinner! Children will create an Alleluia Banner, Mardi-Gras<br />

masks and Crowns and end the evening with a Parade and sing-a-long<br />

as we bury our Alleluias in preparation for Lent. Shrove Tuesday is a day<br />

of celebration as well as penitence, because it’s the last day before Lent.<br />

Lent is a time of abstinence, of giving things up. So Shrove Tuesday<br />

came about as the last chance to indulge yourself and to use up the<br />

You are also invited to the Ash Wednesday services at St. Cuthbert Episcopal<br />

church on March 1 st at 6:30 AM, 4:30 PM and 7 PM. All services have Holy<br />

Communion and the imposition of ashes. The 4:30 PM service is designed for<br />

children and their families. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the season of<br />

Lent, which is dedicated to reflection, prayer and fasting in preparation for Easter.<br />

weave throughout the Star Wars films. From the Force to the dark side, the<br />

issues presented in the films have a moral and spiritual complexity that, if<br />

relation to others and to God. Through Forty Days in the Force we hope to see<br />

the challenges and victories in our everyday Christian life. There will always be<br />

a teacher and a student and there will always be evil, but thanks to God and his<br />

Son, there will always be good and we will always have a purpose. Nursery will<br />

name.”<br />

STEPS FOR STUDENTS: A 5K RUN/WALK<br />

Are you a runner who enjoys family-friendly races? Are you an alumnus of<br />

a parochial school? Do your children, grandchildren or children of friends<br />

attend a parochial school? Do you like to have fun with 10,000+ plus<br />

people? If you answered yes to any of these questions or even if you didn’t,<br />

the <strong>2017</strong> Steps for Students 5k Race/Walk is for you. Steps for Students<br />

is a 5k USA Track and Field Association sanctioned race which benefits<br />

Catholic education in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. Held every<br />

year in <strong>February</strong>, Steps for Students has grown to include over 10,000<br />

participants, filling the streets around the Co-Cathedral with runners,<br />

walkers, families, kids and adults. Each Catholic school in the Archdiocese<br />

has its own team which you can join or donate to. Race Day begins with a<br />

sunrise Mass at the Co-Cathedral followed by the race itself. In <strong>2017</strong>, the<br />

race will take a new, East-West direction under I69, but it will still begin<br />

and end at the Co-Cathedral. Afterward, you can enjoy the Post Race Party<br />

in the nearby Race Day <strong>Village</strong>. All donations and registration fees (minus<br />

a $3 fee) go directly to your designated school, where they can be used<br />

to help fund scholarships, improve<br />

the campus, add to the educational<br />

experience of the students or whatever<br />

is needed or desired. If running and<br />

getting up early is not your thing, there<br />

is even a Snooze option. You can also<br />

sponsor your favorite runner or school<br />

by simply making a donation.<br />

The date for the <strong>2017</strong> Steps for<br />

Students 5k Race/Walk is Saturday,<br />

<strong>February</strong> 18, <strong>2017</strong>. The sunrise Mass<br />

begins at 6:30 AM with the race itself beginning at 8 AM. Registration is<br />

currently underway, but the last day to register at the low price of $15<br />

(which includes a t-shirt) is <strong>February</strong> 1, <strong>2017</strong>. After that, registration<br />

increases to $25, so register early. Steps for Students is a great way to<br />

get out, get some exercise, see our beautiful city with your own eyes and<br />

make some new friends, all the while supporting Catholic education and<br />

the wonderful opportunities it provides to students of all backgrounds<br />

and faiths. For more information about Steps for Students go to http://<br />

FOSTER CHILDREN:<br />

PREPARATION FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)<br />

When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent.<br />

That’s difficult for kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities<br />

arranged by caseworkers with state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out<br />

how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month.<br />

Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help prepare<br />

for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long course<br />

culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council for Jewish<br />

Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s BizTown, using<br />

computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses.<br />

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR<br />

DREAM DACHSHUND RESCUE<br />

DREAM Dachshund Rescue, Education & Adoption Mission is a Houstonbased<br />

501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing abandoned<br />

Dachshunds and finding new homes for Dachshunds whose owners can no<br />

longer care for them. Our committed volunteers, working closely with local<br />

veterinarians, provide our Dachshunds with quality medical care and loving<br />

foster homes until they are adopted into carefully screened, forever homes.<br />

DREAM is currently looking for caring volunteers to provide temporary<br />

foster care for our many rescued Dachshunds-in-need, currently awaiting<br />

adoption. Prior to their adoption, DREAM continues to pay for all medical<br />

care and monthly heart worm prevention. There is no long-term commitment<br />

required. Food, water, shelter and a soft place to rest is all you need to<br />

provide. The “love” just comes naturally.<br />

If you have a little room in your heart and in your home (and your family<br />

pets are up-to-date on their vaccines and monthly heart worm preventative),<br />

then you are who we are looking for! There is no feeling in the world like<br />

the unconditional love you’ll receive from a rescued Dachshund, plus the<br />

friendships you’ll make when you join the DREAM Team! The more foster<br />

homes we have, the more Dachshunds we can save. Please help save a life<br />

and consider fostering today!<br />

Questions? Please send us an email to: Contact-Us@DreamDachs.org and a<br />

volunteer will respond to you right away with all the information you need!<br />

Ready to Foster? Please visit our website at: www.dreamdachs.org and click<br />

on the FOSTER tab to fill out our online Foster Application.<br />

LITERACY ADVANCE OF HOUSTON<br />

IS LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS<br />

Your way to transform a life in need… Teach someone to read! Just a<br />

few hours a week can make all the difference for someone in your<br />

community! Literacy Advance is Houston’s largest and oldest 100%<br />

volunteer-supported literacy organization - and we need your help!<br />

We’re calling all passionate volunteers to help adults learn to read, write<br />

and speak English. All classes are free because they are taught by caring<br />

people just like you willing to volunteer a few hours a week. We’d love<br />

to match you with a person in need. Ola read her first book at age 49,<br />

thanks to a tutor just like you. Prior teaching experience is welcome but<br />

not necessary. Training and ongoing support is provided and we have<br />

locations across the city. Other volunteer opportunities are available as<br />

well, to find out more please contact Maxine Stefano, Volunteer Manager,<br />

at tutor@literacyadvance.org or at 713-266-8777 ext.16.<br />

START THE NEW YEAR WITH A NEW<br />

BEST FRIEND AND FAMILY MEMBER!<br />

Loving Arms Pet Placement has an assortment of wonderful dogs and<br />

cats hoping for their forever homes. We have all different types of small<br />

to large dogs, mixed breeds and many wonderful cats to choose from.<br />

We are a foster-based rescue for dogs and cats. If you are not ready to<br />

commit to adopting a dog or cat permanently, the animals also need<br />

foster families. Besides providing food, water and a safe place to sleep,<br />

foster families socialize the animals so they are people friendly. Include<br />

the animal in your daily home life inside your home. Get to know<br />

them as individuals so you can share personality traits, likes/dislikes,<br />

anecdotes. Treat the animal like your own and train him/her, if possible.<br />

Although you may feel sadness when your foster animal is adopted,<br />

please know that your efforts helped to prepare the cat or dog for his/<br />

her forever home.<br />

Visit Loving Arms Pet Placement website at www.<br />

lovingarmspetplacement.com or visit us at Petsmart on Highway 6 and<br />

FM 529 each Saturday from 11 AM until 5 PM.<br />
