Restraint is defined as “the control of a dog or cat under the following<br />
circumstances:<br />
1. When it is controlled by a line or leash not more than six (6) feet in<br />
length, if the line or leash is held by a human being, who is capable<br />
of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question<br />
2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle<br />
3. When it is on the premise of the custodian and the animal does<br />
not have access to sidewalk or street.”<br />
While it may be nice to have your animal out in the yard while you<br />
work or play, it is against the law, unless the animal is properly<br />
restrained.<br />
Let’s all help keep our community a safe and comfortable place<br />
for all our residents by being responsible pet owners. This will not<br />
only protect anyone who may be walking or bicycling in the area,<br />
but also the pet owner who could be held legally responsible or<br />
possibly sued for failing to properly restrain their pet.<br />
3. No Member may speak more than once on the subject and no<br />
more than two (2) minutes, until all Members who wish to speak<br />
have done so.<br />
4. Members of the audience shall not be permitted to interrupt nor<br />
question any speaker.<br />
5. After the speaker has finished addressing the Board, the Meeting<br />
Chairperson will recognize the next Member to speak.<br />
6. Members in attendance are not permitted to engage in private<br />
discussions during the open session and must remain quite or leave<br />
the meeting room.<br />
7. Violations of these Standing Rules will not be tolerated. Violators<br />
may be requested to leave the Meeting.<br />

STREETLIGHTS<br />
We want all of our streetlights to work. A lighted area is a safer<br />
area. If a streetlight is out in your area, please go to www.centerpointenergy.com<br />
and report it. Once on the website, click on<br />
“electricity” then “residential.” On the left side, you should click<br />
on “report a streetlight outage” to enter the required information.<br />
Each light pole should have a number on it. When reporting the out<br />
or malfunctioning light, give them the pole number, closest street<br />
address, contact information, an email address and the number of<br />
street lights you would like to report.<br />
