Do not put attractive packages next to windows that offer an easy<br />
view from the street.<br />
When leaving your home for the evening, leave some lights and a<br />
radio or television turned on. Leave one outside light on. Upon returning<br />
home, check the sides of your house and the area across the<br />
street and adjacent to your home from your vehicle before parking.<br />
If you are a woman alone, get your house key ready before you exit<br />
your car. Lock your car as you are leaving it and immediately go to<br />
your door, unlock it, go inside and relock the door.<br />
All homes should be equipped with long dead bolt key locks. Windows<br />
should be locked when you are not at home or are not awake.<br />
If you are leaving for the holidays, ask a friend or neighbor to pick<br />
up the newspapers and your mail each day or file a stop delivery<br />
for these. Complete a vacation watch form and submit it to the<br />
Sheriff’s Office in Clay Road. Fax this to 281-463-8246.<br />
By taking a few precautions, you will insure a safe and<br />
happy holiday for you and your family.<br />
PARKING LAWS STRICTLY<br />
ENFORCED DURING HOLIDAYS<br />

the parking laws are enforced in both <strong>Westlake</strong> and <strong>Westlake</strong> <strong>Forest</strong>.<br />
Tell them to park with the traffic and not to block fire hydrants<br />
or neighbors’ driveways. Fire engines and ambulances must have<br />
clear access to each street in both neighborhoods at all times.<br />

IT’S TREE PLANTING SEASON<br />
<strong>December</strong> and January are ideal times in Houston to plant trees<br />
and shrubs. The cool weather combined with the rain offer trees<br />
and shrubs the opportunity to establish themselves. In addition,<br />
the soft winter sunshine and warm days nurture the plants.<br />
If you are thinking of adding to your landscaping, this is an ideal<br />
time to do it. Whether you select a 5-gallon plant or large trees<br />
planted by a tree planting service, your plants and trees will have<br />
the highest hope of survival this summer if planted now.<br />
Be sure to select trees and shrubs, which are recommended for<br />
the Gulf Coast summers. Native plants are always best and use<br />
the least amount of water.<br />
STREETLIGHTS OUT?<br />
Please report outages of streetlights to Centerpoint Energy. Get<br />
the pole number as well as the nearest street address and call<br />
713–207-2222 or go to their website and complete an on-line form.<br />
It is very important that non-working lights are reported for the<br />
safety of our each of us. Call it in, call it in.<br />
