PETS REMINDERS<br />
<strong>Westheimer</strong> <strong>Lakes</strong> Community has had many loose dogs & cats lately.<br />
Please do your part to keep your animals safe and contained on your<br />
property. Please Control Your Pets! It is a deed restriction violation if<br />
your pets are not confined to a fenced backyard or within your home.<br />
They must not be allowed to bark all night or cause a nuisance to your<br />
neighbors. They must also be on a leash at all times when not in a<br />
contained environment. It is also the pet owner’s responsibility to keep<br />
ALL areas of the community FREE from pet debris when walking your<br />
pets. Please remember that cats must also be confined. If you happen to<br />
come across vicious dogs or ANY loose dogs of this nature, please contact<br />
Fort Bend County Animal Control at 281-342-1512. If you are familiar with<br />
the property address the pets belong to, please feel free to submit that<br />
information to Principal Management Group - Marci Birthisel at wln@<br />
entouch.net - to pursue the deed restriction violation. Notification and<br />
ample time must be given to the owner to correct the violation prior to<br />
any further pursuit by the Association. Remember that all pets should<br />
always wear a collar with ID tag! Pet owners should also consider pet<br />
microchips for identification in case your pet loses their collar/ID tag.<br />

RULES OF THE ROAD FOR WESTHEIMER LAKES<br />
AND WESTHEIMER LAKES NORTH<br />
This is a reminder... The operation of motorized vehicles (ATV’s, dirt bikes,<br />
golf carts, etc.) other than mowing equipment on pathways or trails<br />
maintained by the Association or any other Common Area within the<br />
community is not allowed.<br />
According to the Texas department of public safety:<br />
• ATV’s are not allowed on a street and an operator crossing a street must<br />
have a valid driver’s license.<br />
• Golf carts are not allowed to be operated on any roadways, sidewalks or<br />
common areas. This includes the Rec Center, SplashPad, lake areas and<br />
playgrounds.<br />
• Mopeds and motor assisted scooters are treated as regular bicycles. All<br />
vehicles used on roads must obey traffic laws including stop signs and<br />
speed limits. For additional information on this subject, go to www.txdps.<br />
state.tx.us/msb/pages/Electric.htm.<br />
DID YOU KNOW… ATV’s and Golf Carts on common areas of the<br />
community require your money to repair these areas when damaged.<br />

<strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | <strong>Westheimer</strong> <strong>Lakes</strong>
LET US KEEP OUR NEIGHBORHOODS LITTER FREE!<br />
Take responsibility for yourself and be a good neighbor! Keep our streets<br />
and neighborhood trash and litter free! Make it a habit, be a good<br />
neighbor and do your part! If each person did their own part (around the<br />
outside of their home including their little stretch of street in front of their<br />
house), what a better place this would be to live! A clean environment/<br />
neighborhood makes people feel good about themselves. They will<br />
keep it clean. Some need to be reminded. Others need to be continually<br />
reminded. It takes time to change habits. Keeping your neighborhood<br />
clean is a habit that takes conscious effort.<br />
GOLF BALLS<br />
Hitting golf balls is meant for the golf course only. It can cause damage<br />
not only to personal property but to people as well. Please respect your<br />
neighbors and refrain from hitting golf balls inside the community.<br />
NO TRESPASSING ON RESIDENTS<br />
PRIVATE PROPERTY<br />
There have been complaints about children crossing through residents’<br />
private yards to get to the facilities. Please let children know that they<br />
cannot cross private property. If this should occur more than once, we ask<br />
homeowners’ to contact the proper authorities.<br />
BASKETBALL GOALS<br />
Basketball is a fun sport that many like to play. As a reminder, please<br />
make sure that all basketball goals are kept in an upright position in your<br />
driveway. Basketball goals should not be left in the street at anytime or<br />
left on the side of your home when not in use. Leaving Basketball goals<br />
in the street can be a nuisance to drivers in the community and a hazard<br />
should there be a need for an emergency vehicle to gain access to your<br />
street. Please note this is also a violation of deed restrictions and if you<br />
receive violation letters regarding this matter you could be sent to the<br />
attorney and be liable for those charges.<br />
UNWANTED SOLICITORS<br />
NO SOLICITING signs are posted throughout the entrances of the<br />
community. If this continues to be a growing issue at your residence and<br />
would like to place a NO SOLICITING sign in your yard, you may certainly<br />
do so. Please be sure that the sign is placed by your front door and place<br />
only (1) sign at your home. If you feel in danger and think the solicitor will<br />
be in the community long enough to call the authorities, we suggest you<br />
call the local Police Department.<br />
KEEP OUR LAKES CLEAN<br />
Please help us keep our community beautiful by NOT THROWING trash<br />
and debris around or into the lakes. In addition, there is NO SWIMMING,<br />
BOATING OR FISHING in the LAKES.<br />
IMPORTANT TRASH INFORMATION<br />
Remember: Unless it is trash pick up day, your trashcans (and any bags of<br />
trash) must be hidden from public view. Please do not store your trashcans<br />
in front of your garage or on the side of your home - your neighbors don’t<br />
want to look out their windows and see your garbage either. Please be<br />
respectful and only place trash out on specific trash days.<br />
WESTHEIMER LAKES TRASH PICK-UP SCHEDULE<br />
Garbage collection days are: Wednesday and Saturday. Trash containers<br />
must be at curb by 7 AM on Wednesdays and Saturdays.<br />

aluminum & bi-metal cans, plastics coded #1 & #2. Please rinse all food<br />

debris onto empty lots. Neighbors please report violators and be ready<br />
to provide license plate number and photo or any other pertinent<br />
information.<br />

Lighter Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo<br />
Ingredients:<br />
2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts<br />
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth<br />
4 cloves garlic, minced<br />
ground black pepper to taste<br />
2 cups heavy cream<br />
2 egg yolks<br />
salt to taste<br />
1 pound fettuccine<br />
1 sprig chopped fresh parsley<br />
2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, divided<br />
Directions: Combine chicken breasts and chicken broth in a saucepan<br />
over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low;<br />
simmer for 5 minutes. Turn breasts, cover and simmer another 5 minutes.<br />
Remove from heat and let sit with the cover on for 15 minutes.<br />
Remove chicken breasts from the broth and set aside to cool, reserving<br />
the broth in the saucepan. Once the chicken is cool enough to handle,<br />
cut into bite-size slices. Return the chicken broth to medium heat and<br />
cook until reduced to 1 cup. Stir garlic, black pepper and heavy cream<br />
into the reduced broth; bring to a simmer and remove from heat.<br />
Whisk egg yolks in a bowl until smooth. Beat 1 tablespoon of the warm<br />
cream mixture into the eggs until thoroughly incorporated; repeat until<br />
about 1/2 cup of the warm cream mixture is used. Whisk the warm cream<br />
and egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream<br />
mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the<br />
mixture almost comes to a simmer and thickens, about 5 minutes. Season<br />
with salt and black pepper to taste.<br />
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine in<br />
boiling water, stirring occasionally, until nearly cooked through, about<br />
7 minutes. Drain.<br />
Stir parsley, 1 cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano and cream mixture into the<br />
pasta. Remove from heat, cover and let sit for a few minutes until thick.<br />
Fold chicken and 1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano into the pasta mixture to<br />
serve.<br />
