HARVEY RECOVERY<br />
As we approach six months following Hurricane Harvey and subsequent<br />
floods, remember that you must request an extension to continue living in a<br />
motorhome or RV in your driveway. Also, please get an extension for storage<br />
containers.<br />
As we get back into our homes, please remember that deed restrictions are<br />
still applicable. While the Board of Directors has instructed Preferred Management<br />
to refrain from deed restriction letters to the flooded homes, we<br />
must remember it is to our benefit to return to normal as soon as possible.<br />
SUMMER ACTIVITIES<br />
Would you like to see additional activities in our neighborhood? We would<br />
love to have things for our families, but without assistance it is not possible.<br />
The Board of Directors’ members all have full time jobs or other family obligations<br />
that take up much of our time. We are an unpaid voluntary Board with<br />
the interest of <strong>Concord</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> at heart. If you have ideas for neighborhood<br />
activities, get volunteers to help and present your ideas to the Board. We will<br />
back legitimate activities to unite our neighbors. There were several people<br />
at the annual meeting that advised they would assist in activities and/or<br />
serving in various capacities. We encourage you to step forward with your<br />
ideas and volunteers to assist.<br />
Hopefully, we will have movie nights in the park again this year. Watch for<br />
information in the Crier, on the marquees and emails from Preferred Management.<br />
PROPER DISPOSAL HELPS EVERYONE!<br />
Do you know what to do with leftover used cooking oil and grease?<br />
Never wash cooking fats, oil or grease (FOG) down the drain, as they can<br />
cause the sewer line to back up into your home. If the drain clogs and causes<br />
a sewer line blockage it may cause the back up to flow onto the street and<br />
into the storm drains which flow to our bayous and eventually Galveston Bay.<br />
This material is harmful to the waterways and the creatures that live there.<br />
Recycle it Instead!<br />
The Harris County Household Hazardous Waste Facility provides a free residential<br />
FOG drop-off site for easy disposal. FOG items can be recycled into<br />
