GOLF COURSE & CART PATH SAFETY<br />
Please be aware of the safety hazards involved in trespassing onto<br />
the Sterling Country Club and Houston National cart paths and golf<br />
course. The cart paths on both courses are only for golfers that have<br />
registered through our Pro Shop. Cart paths are a means for players<br />
to complete their round of golf as quickly, conveniently and safely as<br />
possible. As the <strong>Stone</strong> <strong>Gate</strong> community continues to grow we feel it is<br />
our responsibility to educate every resident as best we can to keep<br />
pedestrians and their pets safe and away from the cart paths. Golf balls<br />
are often hit at speeds over 150 mph and can have deadly consequences<br />
to a human or pet if hit in the head, throat or chest. Because the paths are<br />
for registered golfers, those playing golf are not aware of the presence of<br />
pedestrians on the course, which can lead to very damaging collisions<br />
with hikers/bikers and their pets. This January I fielded a report of<br />
a pedestrian being struck by a golf ball and other reports of residents<br />
having near miss encounters with golf carts when traveling along the<br />
paths. Hiking, jogging, biking, skateboarding and skating on the<br />
cart paths is strictly prohibited on the basis of safety hazard and<br />
trespassing concerns. Thanks for your cooperation!<br />
CRIME PREVENTION TIPS AND LINKS<br />
School is out so that means there will be more kids out to create mischief.<br />
Please remember to lock your car doors. Most, if not all, of the Burglary of<br />
Motor Vehicles in our area last month came from unlocked cars. Also, if you<br />
see anything suspicious, please call the Constables right away. Even if it turns<br />
out to be nothing, they would rather check it out to keep the neighborhood<br />
safe. Every now and again, something that people may think is nothing, has<br />
actually turned into something. I have attached 3 helpful links below:<br />
The first is for the Vacation Watch. When the residents leave for vacation,<br />
they can fill out the form and as part of their normal duties, the Constables<br />
will drive by and check on their residence. www.constablepct5.com/<br />
vacation-watch<br />
The second is for a Special Watch. If there is something going on around<br />
the resident’s house and they want the Constables to keep an extra eye<br />
out or want a little extra patrol, they can fill this form out and we can take<br />
care of it. www.constablepct5.com/special-watch<br />
Finally is the online crime tips. If there is a crime tip that you have,<br />
you can fill this out and the Constable’s office will look into it. www.<br />
constablepct5.com/online-crime-tips<br />
Precinct #5 Constables office can be reached at 281-463-6666.<br />

PETS<br />
<strong>Stone</strong> <strong>Gate</strong> Community has had many loose dogs & cats lately. Please<br />
do your part to keep your animals safe and contained on your property.<br />
Please Control Your Pets!<br />
It is a deed restriction violation if your pets are not confined to a fenced<br />
backyard or within your home. They must not be allowed to bark all<br />
night or cause a nuisance to your neighbors. They must also be on a<br />
leash at all times when not in a contained environment. It is also the pet<br />
owner’s responsibility to keep ALL areas of the community FREE from pet<br />
debris when walking your pets. Please remember that cats must also be<br />
confined. Animal Control can be reached at 281-999-3191.<br />
If you happen to come across vicious dogs or ANY loose dogs of this<br />
nature, please contact your local Animal Control at 281-999-3191. If you<br />
are familiar with the property address the pets belong to, please feel free<br />
to submit that information to PMG - Emma Deatherage edeatherage@<br />
pmghouston.com - to pursue the deed restriction violation. Notification<br />
and ample time must be given to the owner to correct the violation prior<br />
to any further pursuit by the Association.<br />
Remember that all pets should always wear a collar with ID tag! Pet<br />
owners should also consider pet microchips for identification in case<br />
your pet looses their collar/ID tag.<br />
Did you know? There is a Lost Pet Feature to Community Intranet<br />
• Log into www.canyongate.com/residents/sg (login required)<br />
• Click on “classifieds” under Resources located on left side of menu<br />
• Click on “lost & found pets”<br />
You personally can create a description of the lost or found pet as well<br />
as add photos. Please include your contact information to speed up<br />
communications.<br />
PET REMINDERS<br />
Due to increased reports of dog attacks and dog bites in the community,<br />
the Association would like to remind residents to keep your pets on a lease<br />
at all times. ALL pets including cats must be leased AT ALL TIMES. There are<br />
leash laws in place by for the community as well as the county. We ask that<br />
you help keep the community safe by keeping your pet on the leash while<br />
out walking in the community and to remember to clean up after them.<br />
DOG WALKING ETIQUETTE<br />
Good dog-walking etiquette means picking up the poop after your dog is<br />
finished. This is as simple as taking a plastic grocery bag, turning it inside<br />
out and placing your hand inside and using the bag as a plastic glove,<br />
then turn the bag back out and take the bag with you where you can<br />
dispose of it properly. That’s the courteous thing to do. Don’t get caught<br />
without extra poop bags, particularly if you’re going on a long walk.<br />
(P.S. This is a great way to recycle all those plastic grocery bags!)<br />
BE VIGILANT<br />
Residents, Please be advised that a string of incidents (car break-ins, dingdong<br />
ditch) have started to occur on a consistent basis in our area. The<br />
Association encourages residents to be mindful of their surroundings and<br />
report any suspicious activity immediately to the local authorities by calling<br />

RULES OF THE ROAD FOR<br />
S-G OWNER’S ASSOCIATION<br />
This is a reminder…. The operation of motorized vehicles (ATV’s, dirt<br />
bikes, golf carts, etc.) other than mowing equipment on pathways or<br />
trails maintained by the Association or any other Common Area within<br />
the community is not allowed.<br />
According to the Texas department of public safety:<br />
• ATV’s are not allowed on a street and an operator crossing a street must<br />
have a valid driver’s license.<br />
• Golf carts are allowed on roads, but must obey all traffic laws including<br />
speed limits. If operated on a road the golf cart must have a license plate<br />
and the driver must have a valid driver’s license and proof of insurance.<br />
• Mopeds and motor assisted scooters are treated as regular bicycles. All<br />
vehicles used on roads must obey traffic laws including stop signs and<br />
speed limits. For additional information on this subject go to www.txdps.<br />
state.tx.us/msb/pages/Electric.htm.<br />
DID YOU KNOW…. ATV’s and Golf Carts on common areas of the<br />
community require your money to repair these areas when damaged.<br />
TENNIS COURTS<br />
The Association kindly asks that residents refrain from using the tennis<br />
courts for anything other than playing tennis. Playing basketball, football<br />
and/or other activities can cause damage to the tennis courts making it<br />
unavailable for other residents to use and creating costly repairs.<br />

BEWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS<br />
Remember, we do live in a big city. We have all the elements here and<br />
we have people looking to take advantage of people they perceive as<br />
victims. If a crime is going to occur, the offender must have three things<br />
to accomplish the task: desire, ability and opportunity. Personally, there<br />
is not much that you can do about the offender’s desire and ability.<br />
However, you can take steps to control the offender’s opportunity.<br />
• BE AWARE of your surroundings! Giving the appearance of not paying<br />
attention and not being alert is what offenders look for in a victim. Turn<br />
off your ipod/headphones or cell phone to reduce your risk of being a<br />
crime victim.<br />
• You should never walk alone! However, if you must walk alone, have a<br />
plan and choose open well lighted and well traveled areas.<br />
• When walking you should walk facing traffic. Do not read while walking<br />
or standing on the street. Be cautious of drivers that stop to talk to you or<br />
are not paying attention to the road.<br />
• Avoid being on the street alone if you are upset or distracted.<br />
• Always tell someone where you’ll be and what time you are going to<br />
return.<br />
• If you think you are being followed: cross the street, change directions,<br />
keep looking back so the person knows you can’t be surprised. Look for a<br />
crowded area and move quickly.<br />
• TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS: If something “feels wrong”, something<br />
probably is wrong.<br />
• If you find yourself in a situation with an assailant, don’t be afraid to<br />
loudly call attention to what the assailant is doing (“Help!” “Fire!” “Get<br />
your hands off me!” “This stranger is bothering me...”, etc.).<br />
16<br />
<strong>July</strong> <strong>2017</strong> | <strong>Stone</strong> <strong>Gate</strong>
• Report suspicious persons to the police immediately!<br />
• Keep emergency numbers near your phone.<br />
• Do not leave messages on your door or voice mail, etc., indicating you<br />
are away or when you will return.<br />
• Be cautious of telephone surveys and NEVER... give out any personal<br />
information.<br />
• Do not prop open doors or gates. This will put everyone at risk.<br />
• Always LOCK your doors, garage and windows.<br />
• Keep access cards, keys and remotes in a safe place. Do not leave them<br />
lying out in the open. Never leave them on a table or shelf near your door.<br />
It takes less than 10 seconds to look into your open door and steal items<br />
from a table or shelf near the door.<br />

your best to be respectful of the noise level on your property. Pets must<br />

LOUD NOISE/MUSIC: Domestic neighbor noise, such as DIY work or loud<br />
music, is the most common cause of noise complaint. It is advisable to<br />
take steps to resolve the problem yourself before filing a complaint with<br />
the management company, such as speaking face-to-face or writing a<br />
letter to your neighbor to explain how you are affected. If you have been<br />
unable or not felt comfortable with resolving a problem with domestic<br />

FISHING IN THE LAKES: Not permitted at any time. Please refrain from<br />

set their trashcan(s) out after 6 PM the evening before their respective<br />

LET US KEEP OUR NEIGHBORHOODS LITTER FREE!<br />
Take responsibility for yourself & be a good neighbor! Keep our streets<br />
& neighborhood trash & litter free! Make it a habit, be a good neighbor<br />
& do your part!<br />
If each person did their own part (around the outside of their home,<br />
including their little stretch of street in front of their house), what a better<br />
place this would be to live!<br />
A clean environment/neighborhood makes people feel good about<br />
themselves. They will keep it clean. Some need to be reminded. Others<br />
need to be continually reminded. It takes time to change habits. Keeping<br />
your neighborhood clean is a habit that takes conscious effort.<br />

Saturday, August 12 th - Galveston Sand Crab 5K and 10K Night<br />
Run benefitting the Galveston Island Humane Society. Start and<br />
finish at East Beach in Apfel Park. Run entirely on sand, the Sand<br />
Crab is a great way to get a little exercise under the stars on a<br />
beautiful Galveston Beach at night and have a few beers and other<br />
refreshments while listening to great music with other runners on a<br />
summer night. All races are chip timed including the Kid’s Mile. The<br />
Kid’s Mile will start at 8 PM. Parents are welcome to run with kids<br />
free of charge. The 5K/10K will start at 8:30 PM. The 5K run is very<br />
walker friendly with a 2 hr cut off. The 10K is walkable but will share<br />
the 2 hr cut off. 10K runners must be at the 3.1-mile turnaround<br />
within 1 hour. The Sand Crab starts on beautiful East Beach and<br />
runs west for 3.1 or 1.55 miles (depending on the event). Then<br />
turns back to the finish. The course is lit with led lights. Runners<br />
are required to run with a flashlight or head lamp. There are 2<br />
watertops with sports drink and water hit 2X each for the 10K and<br />
