BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR<br />

Please be a good neighbor - keep the sidewalks clear of vehicles,<br />

check for low hanging tree branches and overgrown shrubs near<br />

the sidewalks, clean up after your pets, put yard waste at the curb<br />

only the night before and remove garbage cans from visible sight except for<br />

trash days. The trash service includes pickup from your garage, so only yard<br />

waste needs to be placed at the curb.<br />

SHARE YOUR PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE<br />

Do you have an expertise you could share? We are always in need<br />

of professional advice from our homeowners. Please let Lisa Presley<br />

at Crest Management know if you’d be willing to be on an advisory<br />

panel for ad hoc advice (e.g. communications, architect, horticulturalist,<br />

finance, etc..)<br />

IT’S YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD<br />

If you have an hour to spare each month to help improve your<br />

neighborhood, consider volunteering for one of the following: Budget<br />

Committee, Communications Committee, Events Committee,<br />

<strong>Lakes</strong> & Irrigation Committee, Landscape Committee and Safety & Security<br />

Committee. If any of these interest you, please contact Lisa Presley at lisa.<br />

FT. BEND COUNTY - LEASH LAW<br />

Animals that are not properly restrained pose a threat to all<br />

our residents. While you may know your pet is friendly, an<br />

animal running at someone who is walking by is very scary<br />

for that person. Many children are afraid of animals and<br />

become frightened, which could result in the child getting<br />

hurt trying to avoid the animal. Although most dog bites<br />

occur on the property where the dog lives, unrestrained or<br />

free-roaming dogs do pose a threat to the public. In addition,<br />

unrestrained animals are at increased risk of being bitten by<br />

rabies-infected wildlife.<br />

To make a complaint or report an animal that is not properly<br />

restrained please contact Ft. Bend County Animal Control -<br />

GARDENING TIPS FOR APRIL<br />

Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate<br />

a great many pests that die from various causes while<br />

in the bag. When you buy ‘loose’ mulch that is trucked to<br />

your home, you are also buying ants, roaches, termites, etc…<br />

Spend a little more on bagged material and save lots of future<br />

pest problems. Keep your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the<br />

top of your homes exposed foundation edge/side. This will<br />

aid in minimizing pests in your home and allow for quick and<br />

accurate termite inspections.<br />

Shrubs, Flowers and groundcovers - Trim all shrubs/plants<br />

at least 12” - 18” back from your home. Do your best to create<br />

a plant free zone that is 18” - 24” wide around your home.<br />

The exception is your lawn - it can grow up next to the slab<br />

as long as you keep it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab. The<br />

most conducive to termite infestation are groundcover plantings,<br />

growing high against your homes exterior or (especially)<br />

ivy that grows on your walls.<br />

Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring<br />

spray eliminates overwintering pests and fungi while preparing<br />

trees to resist the pest onslaught of summer with residual<br />

pesticides. The fall spray also kills pests from the summer,<br />

prevents most fungi from occurring over the winter and puts<br />

your valuable asset off to a healthy winter’s dormancy.<br />

Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide treatment<br />

to stop brown patch in its tracks along with other fungi. If<br />

your lawn is thin and weak in some areas, here are some<br />

important fundamentals: a) lawn aeration b) fertilization c)<br />

weed control.<br />

Most important is proper watering:<br />

• Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more<br />

- then do not water.)<br />

• Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage.<br />

• In severe drought, water every 5 th day.<br />

• Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT.<br />

• A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper,<br />

stronger and more drought resistant roots.<br />

• Less watering also saves you money!!<br />

environment, elementary school students from across Texas can<br />

submit their best litter prevention design to be considered for<br />

the 2016 Don’t mess with Texas Calendar. Entries will be judged<br />

based on creativity/uniqueness, inclusion of a litter prevention<br />

message and interpretation of theme, overall visual appeal,<br />

composition and age appropriateness.<br />

Students win prizes and have their art featured. Students who create<br />

the top 13 winning designs will have their artwork assigned<br />

to a month or featured on the cover of the 2016 Don’t mess with<br />

Texas Calendar. Each will also win an iDeaUSA 8 tablet donated<br />

by H-E-B and Central Market. All student winners and their artwork<br />

will be showcased on the Don’t mess with Texas and Keep<br />

BECOME A TUTOR-UNDERSTAND<br />

OUR STUDENT’S LIFELINES<br />

Become an essential part of a student’s life by signing up to be a tutor for the Literacy<br />

Council! The Literacy Council of Fort Bend County holds tutor training every<br />

other month. After 12 hours of training, outstanding volunteers are equipped to<br />

teach Basic Literacy and English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to adults.<br />

The trainings prepare tutors to organize and compile lesson plans, learn about<br />

various tutoring techniques, understand the purpose of the Literacy Council<br />

and much more. Tutors do not need knowledge of any foreign language, nor<br />

do they need formal teaching experience. We offer many locations for tutoring<br />

throughout the area, including locations in Katy. Tutoring sessions are offered<br />

during the day and at night. If you are interested in impacting someone’s life by<br />

being their tutor, please contact the Literacy Council at 281-240-8181 or visit the<br />

website at www.ftbendliteracy.org. Help us to “Change Lives Through Literacy!”<br />

RUOK PROGRAM<br />

Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Dept. has a computer-generated program called “Are<br />

You OK?” (RUOK). It is a computer-generated call intended for senior citizens<br />

(over 55) and disabled persons who live alone and could benefit from a daily<br />

check. A computer will generate a call each morning, at about the same time<br />

and the participant chooses a time frame. A voice will ask, “Are you OK?” After<br />

this, all they have to do is hang up the phone. If the participant goes out of town<br />

or leaves the residence for any time, you just temporarily un-subscribe and resubscribe<br />

when you return. If the call goes unanswered, the computer will call back<br />

3 times at 15-minute intervals. If there is still no answer, the Sheriff will dispatch<br />

a deputy or the local police. They will have with them a print out of information<br />

on the person that is not responding to the calls. This program was established<br />

by FBC Sheriff Milton Wright, Commissioner’s Court and Ken Whitt (FBC Sheriff’s<br />

Citizens Academy Alumni Assoc.) in 1998. Many police chiefs in the county are<br />

also participating in the program and will proceed with the welfare check for<br />

citizens of their community. To request more information or to enroll in this free<br />

and very beneficial program, please call the Sheriff’s Dept. at 281-341-4704.<br />
