NEWS FROM THE BOARD
Well Neighbors it’s that time again. Annual dues, pay through your
Townsquare account - get there by going to www.lakesideresidential.
com. If you can’t pay the $350 in full by the end of January, set up a
payment plan early, don’t wait till May, that’s when the accounts get sent
to the attorney.
$350 due by January 31 st ,
if you don’t pay then $377.92 due by February 28 th ,
if you don’t pay then $446.34 due by March 31 st ,
if you don’t pay then it goes up to $556.41 due by April 30 th ,
if you don’t pay by then it goes up to $666.48 and you go to the attorney’s
where it jumps up significantly.
YUCK, don’t let this happen it can screw up your year. If you had too much
fun over the holidays, call now and get on a payment plan, pay it off by the
end of May and join us for fun at the pool. If you had fines on your account
make sure you at least pay the dues before the end of the January.
When you mail in your dues please make sure your address is on the
check and that you make it out to Lakeside Residential CAI.
Calendar for the 2020 year will come out next month - hopefully we can
do it all. At our annual meeting we added more Board members so we are
now at five (they are listed alphabetically):
Gabriel Blackwell
Mary Krouse
Judy Smith
4
Yi (Jack) Cheng
Cathy Shook
We will be having our Annual Christmas decorating contest this year. We
will have the gift cards and signs placed in the yards.
LAKESIDE RESIDENTIAL HOA MEETINGS
HOA meetings are held the 2 nd Monday of the month at 6:30 PM. (Unless
Monday is a holiday, then we will meet the following evening.) HOA
meetings are held at the Cypress Crossing Christian Church, located
at 15751 Cypress Rosehill Road, Cypress, Texas 77429. Executive Board
meetings will follow regular homeowners meetings.
Residents who need to talk to the Board are asked to email Sherridda
Williams at Sherridda.Williams@Inframark.com Office - 281-870-0585,
Direct - 281-504-1350 be placed on the executive session agenda.
Our website is www.Lakesideresidential.com. By-Laws, Deed Restrictions,
Pool hours and card applications, a map of the community showing
sections by number, streets and entrances are all there to better help you
with your inquiries as well as responsibilities as a homeowner.
WE LOVE VOLUNTEERS! We would like to build a bank of volunteers to help
with various activities throughout the year! Poolside events, National NIght
Out and other holidays. Your time and efforts will be greatly appreciated by all.
The more volunteers we have, the more events that can take place. Events are
meant to bring our community together and they just don’t happen without
these folks who give up their time and efforts for you. Unfortunately, they are
taken for granted, when in fact, they are much appreciated by the Board.
BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR. Whether you’re a homeowner or a renter, the
deed restrictions of Lakeside apply to you. We all want our neighborhood
to look good, feel like home and keep up the value of our properties.
Association by-laws, deed restrictions, Architectural changes, etc can be
found on our website Lakesideresidential.com.
Whether at a Board meeting, email, phone or one-on-one conversations,
there are a number of requests and complaints that come from the
neighborhood residents, both members and non-members alike. Most
of these can be summed up into:
• Keep down the noise! Barking Dogs, loud music.
• Walk your dog, respect other folk’s yards, take along your “poo-pickup”
bags and clean up the mess.
• Speaking of yards, clean them up. Plant new, remove old plants. Mow
as needed to keep the neighborhood looking well kept and desirable to
live in.
• Power wash that mildew off your house.
• Vehicle storage is not allowed on your lot, please have current registration
stickers on all your vehicles. They are supposed to be drivable. Covering
with tarps won’t help! The disabled cars parked in the driveway are in
violation of HOA guidelines and will initiate letters to homeowners. Any
disabled vehicle parked on the street is a county offense and should be
reported to the Constable.
• Inspect your fence for any missing or damaged fence pickets, we are
required to maintain and replace pickets as they deteriorate and fail
• Mow your lawn and edge the walks. It is required of every homeowner.
• Trash bins are not to be visible from the street. Place them at the curb
the night before only on garbage pickup days and retrieve them on
collection day by nightfall. Store them out of view like in the garage,
backyard or behind a barrier on the side of your house - the front porch
is not the right place.
• When you order new cable or satellite service, remind the installer that
you live in a HOA and there are restrictions. All of the installers are aware
of all restrictions and will gladly install correctly if they understand that
you are concerned about your HOA and therefore your home value.
• Door and or trim painting must be approved via ARC, you can retrieve
an ARC form through the lakesideresidential.com website.
• SLOW DOWN!!! This is a neighborhood! 30 MPH may be too fast. The kids
on the street are much more important than any excuse for fast and or
reckless driving. Tell your teen drivers that you expect them to love and
respect the neighborhood.
CONSTABLE PATROL 281-376-3472 - As a reminder, we are patrolled by
Harris County Precinct 4 Constables, through MUD 391.
Please add the dispatch number to your cell phones or post in a visible
place at home in case you need support in a non-life threatening situation.
If you don’t call to report a crime or suspected criminal activity in progress
or suspicious persons or vehicles, no arrests will be made, the crime or
criminal activity will continue and the Constable’s Office will not know that
anything is going on. The social communities that we use to communicate
with each other is NOT monitored by the constables. Posting on any
media site is not notification to get assistance. Yes, we have those rare
occasions where a Deputy, by pure luck, drives up on a crime or suspicious
activity in progress. But why rely on luck when you have a telephone? The
number to call is 281-376-3472. If there is a life threatening emergency,
call 9-1-1. The Constable Patrol also offers a free vacation watch service,
keeping your home under watch while you’re away.
LOITERING AND VANDALISM
Please help us to keep our recreation areas safe and clean by reporting
any and all loitering after dark directly to the Constable at 281-376-3472.
Please also remember to report any suspicious persons walking around
the community or at the parks immediately to the Constable Patrol. Don’t
call the management co or HOA Director, We’re NOT the law! Better safe
than sorry!
TRASHCANS
BEST TRASH is the service for Lakeside Residential, your community.
They can be contacted 281-313-2378. Check their website for holidays,
remembering they will pick up on the next regular pick up day.
• Please do not put trash out before the night before trash day and be
sure to pick them up after collection.
• Trash Cans make the streets look very messy when not out for pick-up.
• Trash cans have the most violation letters sent out.
• Remember to place trashcans in the garage, backyard or behind a
barrier by the house, that looks nice and hides the can. The new barrier
December 2020 | Villages of Cypress Lakes Lakeside
must hide cans from the street and be acceptable. Cans just stored by
your house or on your patio will get you a compliance violation letter.
ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL COMMITTEE
So you’d like to build an igloo or paint your house red and blue to
pay tribute to your favorite sports team? These are easily identified as
requests that would not be allowed in our neighborhood. But what are
the kinds of things for which you need to submit a request for approval to
the HOA? Basically, if you are making a change to your home or yard, you
are required to submit a request. Some common requests are:
• Installing a pool
• Replacing windows, doors or shutters
• Building a covered patio
• Installing a storage unit
• Installing an irrigation system
• Replacing your roof
• Painting your home/trim
• Removing/replacing the trees in your front yard
• Expanding your driveway
Keep in mind that approval may take up to 30 days - plan ahead! Submit
your application early, so that your project is not delayed. The ACC
committee is made up of volunteers and our goal is to provide a beautiful
and consistent look to our neighborhood.
REPLACING YOUR FENCE
This one is a little more complex. If you are replacing your fence with
EXACTLY the same fence (in the same place with the same size boards and
the same pattern), then you don’t need HOA approval. However, if you
are CHANGING anything - the pattern of the fence (including installing
a rot board at the bottom), moving it, adding a gate or changing the
material of your fence, then you need approval of the HOA.
Please, remember to pick up after your dogs when you go out for a walk,
there are plenty of trash bins and doggy poo stations.
How do you like our new back fence along Huffemister?
This year we refurbished our monument signs.
Thanks to our Mud Board member, in addition to the lake walkway, we
will be getting two benches and two waste receptacles.
