Inspection Drives<br />

Spectrum Association Management started conducting inspection drives<br />

in September.<br />

Your Site Manager will be enforcing the deed restrictions provided in your<br />

governing documents. Please remember this includes regular mowing<br />

and maintenance of yards and flowerbeds, mold removal from siding<br />

and keeping your lot free of clutter. Please also remember, to remove<br />

your trash can for storage out of public view after trash collection. In<br />

addition to inspections, The Board is considering a yard of the month<br />

program which will be formally announced before its inception.<br />

If you have additional questions, all governing documents can be found<br />

at SpectrumAM.com under the tab community info and documents. Your<br />

Spectrum Site Manager will be performing inspections twice monthly.<br />

For any questions or concerns, please call 281-343-9178 or go to<br />

• Only two pets per household - refer to governing documents regarding<br />

height and weight limits.<br />

• Pick up pet waste and discard properly.<br />

• Do not allow pets to roam around the community unrestrained - it’s the<br />

law! This includes cats too!<br />

• Do not allow dogs to bark continuously disturbing neighbors.<br />

1. Empty, remove, cover or turn upside down any receptacle that would<br />

hold water - particularly old bottles and tin cans.<br />

2. Change water and scrub vases holding flowers or cuttings twice each<br />

week - or grow cutting in sand.<br />

3. Discard old tires or store them indoors.<br />

4. Screen rain barrels and openings to water tanks or cisterns. Seal<br />

cisterns not in actual use.<br />

water.<br />

6. Connect open waste-water drains to a sewage system or construct<br />

separate sump or leach.<br />

8. Fill holes in trees with sand or mortar or drain or spray then, as required.<br />

9. Stock ornamental ponds with mosquito-eating fish.<br />

10. Fix or replace screens for doors and windows.<br />

Mosquitoes develop only in water…and water standing just a few days<br />

can produce a crop of mosquitoes! STOP MOSQUITO DEVELOPMENT.<br />

Houston S.P.C.A.: 713-869-7722<br />

Harris County Animal Services does not handle wildlife issues. They<br />

handle problems with domestic animals, namely dogs and cats. If you<br />

have a complaint about a barking dog or a dangerous dog or have any<br />

questions about lost pets, stray cats, pet adoptions, leash laws, etc,<br />

give the county a call. It is a free county service for domestic animal<br />

issues. The county will not take care of the raccoon in your yard, the<br />

squirrels in your attic, your rat infestation or anything like that. For<br />

wildlife help, see our phone number below or go to our Houston<br />

wildlife removal home page. What to do when your neighbor’s dog<br />

won’t stop barking in Houston - Is your neighbor’s dog keeping you up at<br />

all hours of the night and day with its incessant barking? There is nothing<br />

worse, especially when you or your kids are trying to sleep! Perhaps the<br />

6<br />

<strong>May</strong> <strong>2019</strong> | <strong>Aberdeen</strong> <strong>Green</strong>


dog barking is setting off your dog and all you can hear all day is a chorus<br />

of bad barking? Whatever the case is - you have rights and there are some<br />

steps that you should take in order to get the barking to stop. You will<br />

probably want to avoid actually confronting the neighbor as this can<br />

often end up in a rather heated debate. You should write or type up a<br />

small note mentioning the dog barking - nine times out of ten, the owner<br />

will be at work and probably doesn’t even realize what is going on. Make<br />

it short, to the point and polite - exactly how you would want someone<br />

to talk to you if your dog was making a crazy racket! If nothing happens<br />

or the letter isn’t in some way acknowledged you can always turn to<br />

your local housing organization or landlord if you are renting. There will<br />

normally be noise stipulations in rental agreements, so it is well worth<br />

finding out if your neighbors are renting and getting in touch with their<br />

landlord as well. You will find that most residential areas have noise<br />

control rules set in place, so don’t be afraid to find out what your rights<br />

are. If nothing happens from your complaint to the owner of the dog and<br />

the housing organization, (or neither of you are renting) it’s time to take a<br />

different approach. This time, grab some information on the noise control<br />

in your area and print them out. Combine this in a neat little package<br />

with another letter, basically saying exactly what the first one did, but<br />

this time mentioning that this is the second time that you have tried to<br />

contact them about the complaint and that you will be taking the matter<br />

further if nothing is resolved. Again, do not be threatening or menacing<br />

in your words or language. If you still don’t get a positive outcome from<br />

your effort, it’s time to call the boys in blue. You will need to remember<br />

that a dog barking situation is not always going to be a priority for your<br />

local law enforcement agency, buy you do still have rights so you should<br />

report the complaint. Make yourself a log of everything that has been<br />

going on -photos or noise clips of the dog barking, times and dates and<br />

also how long the barking goes on for, all copies of the correspondence<br />

you have with the owner/neighbor etc. You will need all the evidence that<br />

you can get your hands on in order to get your problem resolved. Get<br />

yourself a lawyer. There are ways around this problem and if it comes to<br />

resorting to a small claims court in order to allow your kids or yourself to<br />

get a good night’s sleep or a nap, so be it!<br />

PREPARE FOR SUMMER HEAT NOW!<br />

We’re weeks away from sweltering temperatures, hurricane warnings<br />

and bug invasions. Before summer hits at full force, make sure you and<br />

your home are prepared:<br />

Give Your Air Conditioner a Checkup<br />

• Replace your air filter to make sure the whole system runs smoothly.<br />

• Clear debris on or around your vents or exhausts and clean off any dirt<br />

from the main unit outside.<br />

• Install programmable thermostats.<br />

Test for Ventilation Leaks<br />

• First, look for actual leaks: drafts in your windows and doors.<br />

• Check your attic insulation for leaks and gaps.<br />

Set Up a Barrier for Bugs<br />

• Check caulking around windows and doors, fix any drafts/gaps with<br />

new weather stripping and caulking.<br />

• Spray outdoor perimeter with a pesticide, along with baseboards, sinks,<br />

windows and doors.<br />

Change Your Ceiling Fan Direction<br />

• Run Ceiling Fans Counter-Clockwise for Summer Savings.<br />

Prevent Water Damage<br />

• Make sure your windows and doors are properly sealed and caulked, too.<br />

• Test gutters to look for water coming out of any places it shouldn’t.<br />

Exchange Student HOSTING FAQs<br />

What does hosting mean? Hosting means you open your heart and<br />

home to a teenager from another country. You provide the same loving,<br />

caring environment for them as you do a member of your own family.<br />

What kinds of families are acceptable? We accept many types of<br />

families: single parent families, families with children of any age, childless<br />

families and families with grown children.<br />

What is the host family responsible for? The host family is responsible of<br />

providing three meals a day, registering the student in school, a separate<br />

bed and a quiet place to study. The STSF local LC will obtain the signed<br />

school acceptance form prior to the student’s arrive to the country.<br />

What happens if the student is ill or in an accident? Our students have<br />

their own medical insurance. Each student should have an ID card and<br />

claim forms before they arrive. STSF will help with the filing of claims.<br />

What about spending money? The student’s natural parents agree<br />

to send adequate spending money. This money should be enough for<br />

clothing, social activities, trips, school expenses and telephone calls to<br />

their home country. Ideally, students will already have a bank account<br />

when they come over that they can access with an ATM card. Host Families<br />

can also assist their students in setting up savings or teen account.<br />

Are we supposed to show them America? Trips are organized and<br />

available to the students through their Regional Directors or through<br />

an STSF approved travel organization. Keep in mind that this is an<br />

academic program with opportunities for travel for students who are<br />

meeting academic standards. RDs also sponsor trips for students. More<br />

information about these trips will be given throughout the year.<br />

What is expected of the exchange student? Our students are here on<br />

an academic program. This means, they must attend all of their classes,<br />

participate in class and maintain at least a C or above in each class. The<br />

student has an orientation that explains the rules they agree to abide by. These<br />

include obeying all local, state and federal laws. They may be immediately<br />

dismissed from the program and sent home for violation of these laws. They<br />

are expected to follow host family rules concerning family responsibilities<br />

such as chores. They must also obey curfews established by the host family.<br />

What is the length of stay? Most of our students arrive in August for a<br />

10 month academic stay. They must return to their home country 7 to 10<br />

days after the last day of school. These are a few students who only come<br />

for a semester. Some arrive in January and stay until December. How<br />

do you match students to Host Families? We try to find students whose<br />

hobbies and interest match the family members. We look for common<br />

interest in the arts, sports and religious involvement. The host Family<br />

may request a student from a country they have special interest in. We<br />

try and match as much as possible to ensure a successful experience.<br />

Are Host Families paid to host? No, but host families receive a $50<br />

tax deduction (Charitable Contribution) per month for each month the<br />

students live with you.<br />

What are the rewards of hosting? Your family gains a new family<br />

member. The relationship that evolves throughout your year as a host<br />

parent will last a lifetime. The focus of this program is to have host<br />

families and students learn from each other.<br />

If you are interested in hosting, please contact Vicki Odom at 832-455-<br />

7881 or vicki.stsfoundation@yahoo.com.<br />

31ST ANNUAL B. F. ADAM GOLF CLASSIC<br />

<strong>May</strong> 9, <strong>2019</strong>, the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation (CFEF) will celebrate its<br />

31 st annual B. F. Adam Golf Classic at BlackHorse Golf Club. Allegiance<br />

Bank joins the Foundation as our new tournament underwriter. IBI<br />

Group, Linebarger Attorneys at Law and Zenith Real Estate Group are<br />

supporting CFEF again this year as Platinum Sponsors. Gold Sponsors<br />

include Cromdane Steel, Division One Construction, PBK, Salas O’Brien<br />

and Satterfield & Pontikes Construction. The Backyard Grill joins<br />

Carl’s BBQ as our dinner sponsors. Caldwell Companies has been the<br />

tournament lunch sponsor since 2011.<br />

One of the largest non-celebrity tournaments in the Houston area, the<br />

B.F. Adam Golf Classic is a prime example of our trustees and community<br />

business partners working together to raise scholarship funds for<br />

students of Cypress-Fairbanks ISD. Our first tournament raised $3,500<br />

and over the past 30 years the B. F. Adam Golf Classic has successfully<br />

raised almost $3.5M.<br />

CFEF was established in 1970 as a non-profit to raise money to fund<br />

scholarships for high school graduates. Through the generosity of the<br />

Cy-Fair community and commitment from the Board of Trustees, the<br />

Foundation has grown tremendously with scholarship awards totaling<br />

more than $8.5M to graduating seniors from Cypress-Fairbanks ISD. CFEF<br />

is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, all contributions are tax deductible,<br />

as allowed by the law.<br />

SPONSORSHIPS AVAILABLE<br />

ST. AIDAN’S SETS SUMMER VBS<br />

Believe it or not, it’s time to start thinking about Vacation Bible School<br />

again and the folks at St. Aidan’s have another great program planned.<br />

Scheduled for the week of July 8 th -12 th , St. Aidan’s usually hosts about 80<br />

children. This year’s theme is ROAR: Life is wild. God is Good. We usually<br />

have Bahama Bucks on the last day. That is always a big treat for our<br />

students. And, last year, we hosted Wild Things Zoofari. They brought<br />

a wallaby, a toucan, a lemur and a hedgehog. Everyone really enjoyed<br />

that.” Cost of VBS is $30. Scholarships are available for families in-need.<br />

New for this year, we are adding Triumph Sports so our students will<br />

have a full-day option. From 12-4 PM, Triumph will run a Bible-based<br />

sports camp. Participants will play dodgeball, kickball, capture the flag,<br />

basketball, soccer and more. Early registration for this afternoon session<br />

is $105 before June 1 st . After June 1 st , cost goes up to $115. Registration<br />

is already open at aidanschurch.org. For additional information, please<br />

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - 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<br />

individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility<br />

and high self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made,<br />

peer pressure 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<br />

including: Birkes, Copeland, Duryea, Fiest, Hemmingway, Holmsley,<br />

Horne, Jowell, Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Postma, Robinson, Sheridan,<br />

Tipps, Walker and Wilson.<br />

Other Community groups include: Autumn Creek Baptist Church,<br />

Beck and Masten Automotive, Cornerstone United Methodist Church,<br />

Copperfield Church, Crossbridge Church, Cy-Fair Kiwanis Club, Deerfield<br />

Village HOA, LDS Bear Creek and Copperfield Wards, Middlegate Village<br />

HOA, Peace Community Church, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church<br />

Nobody cares for eyes more than Pearle ®<br />

Dr. A. Bains<br />

Therapeutic Optometrist<br />

Most vision plans accepted<br />

Warm weather means our gardens and landscapes are growing fast.<br />

Here are some tasks to keep your landscape beautiful and productive:<br />

Flowers: Time to plant summer blooming perennials and annuals<br />

including plumbago, zinnias, angelonia, purslane, lobularia,<br />

sunflowers, yellow bells, pride of Barbados, duranta and bat-faced<br />

cuphea.<br />

Vegetables: <strong>May</strong> is a great time to plant, from seed or nursery plants,<br />

okra, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, winter squash, pumpkins, basil,<br />

peppers, lima beans, eggplant, garlic chives and Malabar greens. If<br />

you don’t want to dedicate an area of your yard, consider planting<br />

here and there in your flowerbeds. Edible landscaping is a popular<br />

new trend!<br />

Lawns: Water 1/2 to 1” of irrigation per week. A rain gauge or straight<br />

sided container (such as a tuna fish can) will help you know how long<br />

to run your irrigation system to apply 1/2”.<br />

Weeding: Hand pull or hoe weeds while they are still young or better<br />

yet, maintain a 3” layer of mulch in all vegetable and flowerbeds to<br />

deter weeds from getting a start.<br />

Pruning: Remove spent blooms on spring and summer annuals to<br />

promote new blooms.<br />

Fertilizing: Fertilize flowerbeds and vegetable gardens w/slow release<br />

organic fertilizer.<br />

Water: Deep soakings between rain events is better than frequent<br />

light sprinkling.<br />

Birds: Spring migration continues until mid-<strong>May</strong>. Clean bird feeders!<br />

Replace water in bird baths to avoid creating mosquito breeding<br />

spots.<br />
