MESSAGE FROM THE CY-FAIR<br />
VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT:<br />
The Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire Department is requesting homeowner assistance<br />
in addressing the low hanging trees within the community. These low<br />
hanging branches or limbs are hampering responses to calls for assistance.<br />
The branches and limbs are damaging equipment and Homeowner’s trees.<br />
Routes to locations have to be altered. Some locations are unable to have<br />
an alternate route, leaving no recourse but to park the apparatus and walk<br />
to the location.<br />
Several pieces of equipment are 13 feet tall and CFVFD is requesting that<br />
homeowners trim the trees to have a 14 feet umbrella over the street.<br />
The Department members have been instructed not to damage their<br />
apparatus or the Homeowner’s trees by driving down streets that do not<br />
have appropriate passage. The fire department does not wish to have<br />
a citizen with a fire or medical emergency that delays them receiving<br />
attention due to having to locate an alternate route or being forced to walk<br />
to the emergency location. If damage is caused by a homeowner’s tree, the<br />
homeowner will be held responsible for the repair.<br />
COPPERFIELD WEBSITE<br />

<strong>Copperfield</strong> Place Village<br />
(CPV) A WORD FROM THE BOARD<br />
The Board wants to thank all of our homeowners that either attended our Annual Homeowners Meeting<br />
or sent in their proxies enabling the Board to conduct our annual meeting. It is so important to respond<br />
by proxy or attend the annual meeting so that we can conduct business. We are your elected Board whom<br />
you give us the right to represent you and our investment in the community! You learn of the budget set<br />
aside for the year, its goals and its accomplishments throughout the year.<br />
This year we elected a new Vice President and President to represent you. Please plan on attending the<br />
next meeting if you want to meet your new Board members. The next scheduled Board meeting is <strong>July</strong><br />
30 th at SCS’s office on Cherry Park Drive. You may contact SCS for confirmation of date and time. Also<br />
contact SCS if you want to be added to the agenda at the meeting to express any concerns.<br />
Again, please be alert for hurricane season, which started in June. Please stay alert, prepared and vigilant.<br />
Listen to all warnings and prepare to leave if warned!!!! We pray and hope that this year we will not<br />
experience what happened last year.<br />
Neighbors, please be considerate of others when you have a “BACKYARD PARTY!” The loud noice level will<br />
not be tolerated and is very inconsiderate of your neighbors. This includes loud music in the garage or<br />
out in your patio. We have been experiencing such behavior even late at night. The Harris County Sheriff<br />
Department can be contacted if you are experiencing this for disturbance of the peace. Call 713-221-6000<br />
(prompt 1).<br />
DOG LEASH LAW<br />
Did you know that Texas has a Dog Leash Law and Harris County enforces it? Your dogs must be on a<br />
leash at all times and not be roaming the neighborhood or being walked without a leash, especially in<br />
our walking trails. If you see a dog being walked without a leash, you may call the non-emergency Harris<br />
County Sheriff’s Offices at 713-221-6000 prompt 1 or call the Harris County Animal Control 281-999-3191.<br />
Refer also to Houston’s Leash Law below:<br />
“Dogs and cats may not run at large in Houston. Running at large means going on public or private property<br />
without the owner or another person having direct physical control of the animal. An animal on a leash is<br />
considered to be under direct physical control of a person.<br />
When animals are not on a leash they must be otherwise restrained, either behind a fence or in some other<br />
enclosure that will prevent their escape.<br />

Yard of the Month<br />
Our neighbors at 15611 Valley Creek have been working<br />
hard and have done a great job landscaping!! It takes<br />
time and effort keeping up with the yard and going the<br />
extra mile keeps our neighborhood looking great!<br />
Drive throughs are done the 1 st week of the month<br />
and selected Yard of the Month will be mailed a gift<br />
certificate in appreciation of your efforts.<br />
Running at large may result in impoundment of the animal or in the<br />
issuance of one or more citations.”<br />

No boats, trailers, commercial trucks or inoperable vehicles are allowed in driveways or<br />
street and are against deed restriction violations! You will be charged a fee if you have<br />

(EC) BIRD / EGRETS<br />
& NIGHT HERONS<br />
Over the past four years, Easton Commons Village has been<br />
spared the problem created by some of the larger migratory<br />
birds, Egrets & Night Herons. Other <strong>Copperfield</strong> Villages have<br />
had to become experts and create procedures on how to deal<br />
with this type of wild life.<br />
Keeping up the early spring bird watch, keeping trees trimmed<br />
and installing bird deterrents are key to successful nuisance<br />
avoidance.<br />
<strong>July</strong> <strong>2018</strong> | <strong>Copperfield</strong> Community Newsletter 9
According to The Texas Breeding Bird Atlas, 2006, some large multi species<br />
heronries are reestablished annually for as many as 30+ years, but others<br />

(EC) HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS<br />
Hurricane season is upon us. Although Easton Commons did not experience<br />
flooding or power outages with Harvey, it has experienced week long power<br />
outages in the past hurricanes.<br />
Since natural disasters can involve other natural elements like tornadoes<br />
and flooding, everyone needs to take steps to be prepared. Preparedness<br />
can be as simple as checking the flashlights to make sure they have working<br />
batteries, testing the generator to make sure you know how to operate it or<br />
have containers on hand to store drinking water.<br />
Harris County offers good preparedness advice on their website: www.<br />
readyharris.org.<br />
Get A Kit, Make A Plan, Stay Informed.<br />
(EC) COMMUNITY CENTER<br />
The <strong>Copperfield</strong> Community Center handles all baseball field and meeting<br />
room reservations for parties and special events. Their phone number is<br />
281-856-9060 and days of operation are as follows: Tuesdays Noon-6 PM,<br />
Thursdays Noon-7 PM, Friday & Saturdays 9 AM-1 PM.<br />
(EC) VACATION WATCH<br />
The Harris County Sherriff’s Department has a Vacation Watch Program.<br />
To sign up see the website: www.harriscountyso.org/Programs/programs_<br />
VacationWatch.aspx.<br />
(EC) MOSQUITO CONTROL<br />
Although the Easton Commons HOA has mosquito control come through<br />
regularly during the summer, it is not enough to get rid of them completely.<br />
The summer months can be uncomfortable, due to all of the biting insects.<br />
One of the best ways to prevent mosquitoes is to eliminate their breeding<br />
grounds. Controlling mosquitoes also minimizes the risk of mosquito-borne<br />
diseases, including St. Louis encephalitis and West Nile Virus encephalitis.<br />
Homeowners need to scan their property and dispose of or remedy<br />
anything causing standing water. The eggs that mosquitoes lay in rainwater<br />
hatch in as little as two days. Tip over buckets or containers, flowerpots<br />
with reservoirs, toys, boats, wheelbarrows, birdbaths and wading pools.<br />
Clean clogged roof gutters; fill in low areas of the yard that collects water,<br />
dispose of leaf piles and chlorinate pools. Treat water in fountains or water<br />
gardens if the water does not flow on a regular basis.<br />
(EC) CURB REPAIR<br />
Curbs are repaired through Harris County Precinct 4. To request a work<br />
order, visit their website - www.hcp4.net/cad/. You also may call 281-353-<br />
8424 or fax a report to 281-893-5589. The homeowner’s must be involved<br />
with the request. Only the straight part of the curb in front of the home will<br />
be repaired. The end of the driveway and the inlet (curved smaller area)<br />
to the driveway is the homeowner’s responsibility. Precinct 4 has been<br />
remarkably responsive to requests, often making repairs in only two to<br />
three days.<br />

Middlegate Village<br />
(MG) TRASH PICK-UP SERVICE<br />
Tuesday and Friday. Friday is also recycling pickup. Everyone knows<br />
when trash is picked up, however what you might not know is that WCA<br />
customers in Middlegate pay an extra fee to have trash cans picked up by<br />
the back door. This means that our trashcans may be placed at the back of<br />
our driveway. We DO NOT have to take the trash to the curb. However, big<br />
items along with yard clippings and tree branches should be placed at the<br />
curb. This keeps the neighborhood looking clean even on trash days.<br />
Also, if you still want to put your trash down by the street, please keep it<br />
off the sidewalks. We need to keep our sidewalks clear for our neighbors to<br />
walk their dogs, take a leisurely stroll or to visit with neighbors.<br />
(MG) HELP THE FIRE DEPARTMENT<br />
HELP US<br />
One thing most of us love about our drive through the neighborhood is the<br />
beautiful trees that adorn our streets. This is where the fire department<br />
needs our help. Some of the tree limbs hang TOO LOW and would hit the<br />
fire trucks that come through. Several pieces of equipment are 13 feet tall<br />
and CFVFD is requesting that homeowners trim the trees to have a 14 feet<br />
umbrella over the street. The department members have been instructed<br />
not to damage their apparatus or the homeowners’ trees by driving down<br />
streets that do not have appropriate passage. The fire department does not<br />
wish to delay reporting to a fire or medical emergency in order to locate an<br />
alternate route or being forced to walk to the emergency location.<br />

(MG) VOLUNTEERS<br />
You have heard the saying, “More hands make the job go easier and faster.”<br />
So we are asking for others to step up. This can really help the community<br />
grow. Let’s take it up a notch and make it an even greater place to raise a<br />
family! Your input and participation will go a long way in helping us all to<br />
enjoy our neighborhood. Bird Committee and Newsletter Committee are<br />
active and working to meet needs. What committee would you like to work<br />
on? Contact SCS to ask how you can organize Christmas in the park, judge<br />
yard of the month or perhaps you have an idea for a new committee. You<br />
could be instrumental in keeping the heart beating strong in the middle of<br />
<strong>Copperfield</strong>, in our village of Middlegate.<br />
If you’d like to work on an existing committee or jumpstart another<br />
committee, contact association manager Margie Naranjo by email<br />
mnaranjo@scsmgmt.com, phone 281-500-7129 or website SCS Go. On the<br />
website click on the “groups” tab and you should see our group “Middlegate<br />
Volunteers.” You can join right there and keep up with the volunteers in the<br />
community.<br />
(MG) NEW NEWSLETTER COMMITTEE<br />
The newsletter committee is assembling news for Middlegate column in<br />
<strong>Copperfield</strong> Community Newsletter. Middlegate residents are the ones the<br />
newsletter depends on for story ideas. If you have something you’d like to<br />
see covered, contact SCS and suggest an idea. If you are an enthusiastic<br />
writer or skillful photographer and would like to contribute to newsletter,<br />
contact SCS to be put in touch with committee.<br />
(MG) BIRD COMMITTEE UPDATE<br />
Adult herons are flying over the gazebo park daily. If they are raising young<br />
herons in trees in neighborhood, they will stay nearby till their youngsters<br />
are ready to care for themselves. When all herons and egrets have left their<br />
nests in the fall, be certain to trim the tree or trees that they were nesting<br />
in. Else next season migratory birds could easily return to same trees.<br />
Some nests are solid structures that survive windstorms, rain and hail too.<br />
Remove those nests to make the next construction job an original build, not<br />
just a quick fixer upper.<br />

(MG) ENJOY YOUR MIDDLEGATE PARKS<br />

Both parks are open during daylight hours and are equipped with picnic<br />
tables, grills, playground equipment and volleyball nets.<br />

number is 281-463-1777. Your community manager is Margie Naranjo. You<br />
can reach her at mnaranjo@scsmgmt.com or at her direct line 281-500-7129.<br />
CCC is located at 15409 Willow River Drive next to Labay Middle school. This<br />
is where Middlegate HOA Board Meetings are typically held. Please contact<br />
Rita Casey at 281-856-9060 to inquire about the community center and<br />

(MG) SHERIFFS DISTRICT V<br />
SAFETY FORUM WITH RESIDENTS<br />
A HUGE “Thank you” goes out to all of the supporting officers for their time<br />
and patience with all our questions at the forum. This latest in the series<br />
was held at the <strong>Copperfield</strong> Community Center on May 29 th .<br />
This was an EXTREMELY informative meeting. The officers informed us<br />
of Online Reporting, Nuisance Abatement Program, statistics covering<br />
the entire District 5, along with how to navigate their website www.<br />
harriscountyso.org. Once you open the page, you will see 5 general services<br />
at the bot-tom, the one that was covered during this meeting was the Online<br />
Reporting. I encourage you to take a minute and visit the site. Remember,<br />
these are non-emergency issues; use 9-1-1 for all life threatening situations.<br />
This forum’s main topic was The Nuisance Abatement Program. Fortunately<br />
for those of us in <strong>Copperfield</strong> Middlegate, we have a management company<br />
that drives around and gives us warnings regarding such “nuisances.” This<br />
doesn’t mean that we should just ignore a neighbor who is bringing down<br />
the value of our homes, no, this is where you’d report: abandoned motor<br />
vehicles, junked vehicles and abandoned structure and properties.<br />
The officers also shared some very helpful tips to our residents:<br />
1. If you have guns, of course keep them locked up, however you should<br />
also engrave your driver’s licenses number for easy tracking if stolen. If you<br />
don’t engrave, take a picture with your smart phone. The picture number<br />
will serve as a tracking number if the officers find your product(s) at a local<br />
pawn shop, thrift shop, etc.<br />
2. It was also suggested to take pictures of your valuables once a year.<br />
Much easier to show an officer a picture of your valuable with any unique<br />
markings. The officers stated there was a MUCH great chance of getting<br />
your valuables back with these tips.<br />
3. Thieves have been targeting fitness centers lately. They suggested<br />
that before you leave your house heading to the fitness center, put your<br />
valuables in the trunk such as: purse, wallet, hand-gun (if you carry) and<br />
anything else of value. You don’t need these to drive, so don’t give the<br />
thieves an easy steal.<br />
4. The also shared that gas station “grab and runs” are happening again.<br />
Keep your doors locked and windows rolled up while pumping gas and<br />
never leave your keys in the ignition.<br />
5. Lastly, the topic of car break-ins around the neighborhood. They are still<br />
hearing lots of people who have had their laptop, diaper bag, leather bag,<br />
boxes, etc. stolen from their vehicle right out in front of their house. They<br />
also shared that too many times it was real easy for the thief because the<br />
doors were left unlocked. They suggested to clean out your vehicle and not<br />
give the thieves something potentially valuable to see through the window.<br />
This could cause them to break doors/windows/key locks and more just to<br />
get to your goodies! Don’t tease them, just keep your car empty and if you<br />
want, leave the doors unlocked (they said, not this reporter).<br />
We also wanted to give out an extra shout out to Sergeant Adam Lightfoot<br />
for overseeing the <strong>Copperfield</strong> contract deputies and providing monthly<br />
statistics on nextdoor. Having Sgt. Lightfoot in our neighborhood is a<br />
wonderful blessing.<br />

(SC) TRASH & RECYCLING PICKUP<br />
Southcreek trash pickup is on Tuesdays and Fridays. Southcreek has<br />
backdoor pickup. This means that our trashcans may be placed at the back<br />
of our driveway. We do not have to have our trashcans at the curb. Big items<br />
such as yard clippings and tree branches should be placed at the curb.<br />
Our deed restrictions state that all trash, including grass clippings, cannot<br />
be on the curb until 6 PM the night before pickup and your trashcans must<br />
be picked up from the curb by 6 PM, the day of pickup. So… you cannot<br />
have trash on the curb until Monday and Thursday nights until 6 PM and<br />
everything must be removed from the curb by 6 PM on Tuesdays and<br />
Fridays. This includes any bags that contain lawn clippings. If you have<br />
a lawn service, have them place the bags behind your fence and not<br />
leave the clippings on the curb.<br />
Our recycling day is Tuesday. Please have your recycling bin at the curb by<br />
7 AM on Tuesdays. Please pick up your recycling by 6 PM on Tuesdays to<br />
comply with our deed restrictions.<br />

WESTCREEK CRIME WATCH COMMITTEE<br />
Meetings - 3 rd Monday at 6 PM<br />
Forest Heights Pool Meeting Room<br />
For next meeting, contact lberger@comcast.net.<br />
CRIME WATCH TIPS<br />
The key to an effective crime watch program is to communicate - simply<br />
knowing your neighbors and talking. Always let a trusted neighbor know<br />
when you are on vacation or out of town for a long period. When you are<br />
away from home, these simple, preventative measures help prevent home<br />
burglaries: 1) always set your burglar alarm; 2) install keyed dead locks and<br />
don’t leave the key in the deadbolt lock; 3) install motion-sensor lights;<br />
4) don’t hide a spare key anywhere that can be easily discovered; 5) stop<br />
the mail or ask a friend to get it; 6) provide less hiding spaces for burglars<br />
by following the 3/6 rule where shrubs are trimmed in front of the house<br />
no higher than 3 feet from the ground and trim trees so that the lowest<br />
branches are at least 6 feet up; 7) lock up ladders and tools that could be<br />
used to break in; 8) leave a radio on turned to a talk show station; 9) put<br />
lamps on a timer; 10) turn down the phone’s ringer; 11) bolt down safes so<br />
they can’t be picked up and carried out; 12) hide valuables in a hollowed<br />
out book or a fake wall outlet and 13) consider placing safety film over<br />
windows near door handles to make glass hard to smash.<br />
BLOCK CAPTAINS & NATIONAL NIGHT OUT (NNO)<br />
Westcreek still needs block captains. If you want to know if your street<br />
has a block captain or you would like to volunteer to be a block captain,<br />
contact Larry Berger at lberger@comcast.net. Our crime watch committee<br />
is already planning the <strong>2018</strong> National Night Out, which occurs the first<br />
Tuesday in October. If you would like more information about NNO in<br />
Westcreek or you would be interested in hosting a gathering for NNO,<br />
please contact Larry Berger.<br />

HURRICANE SEASON<br />
Hurricane season officially began on June 1 st and already there was a<br />
tropical depression near Florida! Don’t’ get caught unprepared in the event<br />
our area is in the path of Mother Nature’s fury! Plan accordingly:<br />
• Stock a 3 day supply of food and water. Minimum 1 gal of water per person<br />
per day.<br />
• Flashlight. Avoid using candles if power is lost.<br />
• Radio.<br />
• Extra batteries for the radio and flashlight.<br />
• Cell phone w/charger.<br />
• 7 day supply of any critical medications.<br />
• First aid kit.<br />
• Blankets.<br />
• Extra clothing readily available.<br />
• Baby supplies (diapers, formula) if you have infants in your family.<br />
• Set your refrigerator to the coldest setting possible. In the event of a power<br />
20<br />
failure, keep the doors closed as much as possible.<br />
• Create an evacuation plan for your family and establish a meeting place in<br />
case anyone is separated.<br />
• Keep your cars gas tank filled if a storm is reported anywhere in the gulf. A<br />
storm can be upon us with little warning.<br />
• Cash - ATM’s don’t work when the power is down.<br />
• Clear outdoor areas of any items that may turn into projectiles by high<br />
winds.<br />
• If the wind is blowing during a storm - stay indoors!<br />
• Turn off and secure any propane tanks you may have.<br />
• Keep windows and doors shut during any storm.<br />
• Stay off the porch during any storm. Lightning is frequent in our area and<br />
your porch, even though covered, does not offer full safety - you can still<br />
be struck!<br />
• Keep large trees trimmed. Allow the wind to blow through the trees by<br />
thinning the tree. Be sure large, low-hanging limbs are trimmed back or<br />
removed completely and not growing against your home, potentially<br />
damaging it.<br />
Additional hurricane preparedness information can be found at www.<br />
redcross.org.<br />
(WC) GARDENING TIPS<br />
It goes without saying - it is HOT outside! Stay cool and be sure to irrigate<br />
lawn and garden areas accordingly. Also be sure to keep your pets wellwatered<br />
and provide cool areas for them. When taking them for walks,<br />
remember the sidewalk WILL burn their little paws, so be careful!<br />
LAWN / GARDEN CARE<br />
• Water application for our lawns continues to be important - remember<br />
to water only in the early morning hours, before 10 AM as this will prevent<br />
fungus development you will appreciate not having to deal with in the<br />
latter weeks of summer and fall.<br />

• Re-sod bare, diseased or weak areas of your lawn now if you have not already done<br />
so - St. Augustine takes hold and produces rhizomes (horizontal roots or “runners”)<br />
which leads to a thicker turf now better than any other time.<br />
• Top-dressing with lawn soil and compost is acceptable, but beware of applying<br />
products with high manure content as this may cause burning upon contact. Water<br />
deeply.<br />
• Aerate gardens producing vegetables and herbs well to prevent soil caking our<br />
high clay content soil we have all been blessed with is prone to doing.<br />
• Keep an eye out for pests - especially fire ants and cinch bugs. Rains will bring out<br />
ant nests and see increased activity as colonies try to spread out. The excessive<br />
heat is ideal for cinch bugs to gain strength.<br />
• Lawn looking yellow? Could be chlorosis. Use a granular or liquid iron supplement,<br />
but be sure to clean off concrete areas to avoid stains to develop.<br />
• If you have blotch spots on your grass blade, the likely cause is Gray Leaf Spot. Use<br />
a fungicide that contains Daconil, Consan or Banner to cure this issue.<br />
• Summertime Flowers - high temperature, sun-loving flowers will do best from<br />
now until the end of August. Plant Black-eyed Susan, Russelia, Verbenas, Dianthis,<br />
Coreopsis, Daylily, Peony and Lantana as well as Asiatic lily or Salvia in direct<br />
sunlight areas. Impatiens (if you can still find them), Begonias and Rain Lily do well<br />
in the low light areas during the summer.<br />
TREES / PLANTS<br />
• Now is the time to feed Canary Island, Date, Mexican Fan, Sago and Queen Palm<br />
varieties. Fertilizer spikes that add magnesium, potassium and manganese are<br />
ideal as these are the most prevalent elements lacking to palms found in our area.<br />
• As mentioned earlier, keep large trees thinned out - allow high winds to pass<br />
through rather than block the wind during hurricane season.<br />
• Be sure to keep your home’s gutters clean and free in the event heavy rains<br />
are upon us. Clogged gutters cause siding and fascia to become discolored and<br />
ultimately rot. Such repairs are by no means cheap or easy to deal with.<br />
Be safe and enjoy the <strong>July</strong> 4 th holiday - many have sacrificed so that we can enjoy<br />
our freedom.<br />

MY LITTLE GRADUATE LEARNED SPANISH<br />
AT GIRASOL DUAL LANGUAGE PRESCHOOL<br />
At the beginning of June, sixteen Cypress area 5-year-olds walked across the stage of the chapel<br />
at West Houston Church of Christ as the very first graduating class of our only dual language<br />
preschool. Many of these students are now fearlessly bilingual following two years of Spanish<br />
immersion, STEM learning, having fun and making friends. Girasol Dual Language Preschool is<br />
a private, prekindergarten Spanish/English dual language immersion program for children ages<br />
3-5 both with and without any background in Spanish to learn language, science, social studies<br />
and social skills housed in the West Houston Church of Christ learning center.<br />

everyone who meets her. We are so proud of you, Paige! RCS loves you and we cannot<br />
wait to see how God uses all of your talents as you serve Him in the next stage of your<br />

Marketing vs. Listing<br />
Don’t be fooled, a ‘For Sale’ sign in your front yard is not<br />
a marketing plan and neither is making sure your home is<br />
listed on HAR. The difference between listing a home and<br />
marketing a home is critical to the overall success of selling it.<br />
As a successful real estate agent, I specialize in real<br />
estate marketing and will create a comprehensive<br />
customized plan with you to showcase your home.<br />
Please feel free to call or email me anytime with questions.<br />

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA -<br />
COPPERHEAD DISTRICT<br />
For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found<br />
in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant<br />
in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting<br />
helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership<br />
skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.<br />
The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities<br />
that allow them to:<br />
• Try new things.<br />
• Provide service to others.<br />
• Build self-confidence.<br />
• Reinforce ethical standards.<br />
Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as individuals<br />
while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility and high selfesteem.<br />
As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, peer pressure<br />
can be resisted and the right choices can be made.<br />
Scouting provides a rewarding experience for boys ages 5 to 21. Scouting<br />
through the local Packs and Troops teach outdoor and life skills which help<br />
our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston Area<br />
Counsel - Copperhead District which includes 23 Cub Scout Packs (boys 5<br />
to 10 years old), 13 Troops (boys from 11 to 18 years old) and 10 Venturing<br />
units (boys and girls from 14 to 21). Our Units typically meet weekly.<br />
Many of our units are supported by the local Elementary Schools including:<br />
Birkes, Copeland, Duryea, Fiest, Hemmingway, Holmsley, Horne, Jowell,<br />
Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Postma, Robinson, Sheridan, Tipps, Walker and<br />

In the aftermath of Harvey, the arrival of Houston’s first hurricane season will<br />
undoubtedly stoke some trepidation from Houstonians still reeling from last<br />
year’s unprecedented storm, but there’s no reason to panic if you have a proper<br />
plan in place.<br />
While June 1 st marks the official start of Hurricane Season, the Gulf of Mexico has<br />
already seen its first named storm, Subtropical Storm Alberto, which made landfall<br />
on the Florida coast, dumping rain and wreaking havoc across the country.<br />
Predicting a Higher-than-Average Number of Named Storms<br />
It’s notoriously difficult to predict how active a hurricane season may be, but<br />
forecasters have already warned that the U.S. could expect to see a higherthan-average<br />
number of named storms and hurricanes this year.<br />
When Harvey swamped Greater Houston last year - flooding homes and forcing<br />
many to flee - many residents who were new to the region hadn’t experienced<br />
a storm before and were unprepared for what happened. Even some who had<br />
weathered Houston’s hurricanes and floods in the past were caught flat-footed<br />
by the extreme, widespread flooding caused by a storm of epic proportions.<br />

As the tropics begin to warm again, experts are urging residents to heed the<br />
lessons learned last year and get prepared now before any potential storm<br />
appears in the Gulf.<br />
TOP SEVEN THINGS YOU SHOULD DO NOW TO GET READY<br />
Assemble a kit. Along with non-perishable food and water (one gallon<br />
per person per day), toss in a flashlight, some spare batteries, cash, first aid<br />
supplies and copies of important paperwork - insurance policies, emergency<br />
contacts and prescriptions - in case you need to grab it and go. As many people<br />
discovered during Harvey, exposure to contaminated floodwater can lead to<br />
skin infections and other injuries. Consider packing protective gear such as<br />
waterproof pants and boots to protect from floodwater and protective masks<br />
to filter the air.<br />
Heed your medical needs. If you have a chronic condition - or you serve as<br />
a caregiver for someone with special medical conditions - be sure to have a<br />
plan in place for managing your health during a storm. Keep a checklist of<br />
medications that should be packed in an emergency and make sure you store<br />
them in a sealed bag so that they remain clean and dry. Remember that some<br />
medications, like insulin, are sensitive to temperature and must remain cool at<br />
all times. Make sure you include your physician’s information, too, in case you<br />
need to phone in for a refill from afar. Have a backup plan to power your medical<br />
devices should the electrical grid fail. If you rely on a device for lifesaving care,<br />
consider notifying the local public health authority to get evacuation assistance.<br />
Buy now. Don’t wait for the frenzied supermarket rush to stock up on the<br />
items you need in case you lose electricity or water or are forced to evacuate.<br />
Consider purchasing enough supplies to last five to seven days. Harvey’s floods<br />
prevented many people from leaving their homes for five days or longer, so it’s<br />
important to have enough food, medicine and water to sustain you and your<br />
family until roads reopen. Remember to keep your fuel tanks filled in your<br />
vehicles and home generators.<br />
Know where to go. Do you live in an evacuation zone? Most people sheltered<br />
in place during Harvey, but if another storm threatens the region, a voluntary or<br />
mandatory evacuation may be ordered. Get familiar with the local evacuation<br />
routes and have a plan in place for what to pack and how to meet up with family<br />
members.<br />
Stay informed. Sign up for emergency alerts from your local county, city,<br />
school district and other authorities. If you know you will not have access to<br />
transportation, register now for assistance by calling 211. You can view power<br />
outages and sign up for power outage alerts here. More information about<br />
emergency alerts can be found at readyhouston.gov.<br />
Talk to your family. Strike up a conversation with members of your household<br />
before disaster strikes. Discuss responsibilities for each family member and<br />
decide how you will communicate with each other. Figure out any special needs<br />
that must be addressed beforehand. Make a plan for pets and childcare.<br />
