PARKING<br />

Over the last several months the Board has received several complaints<br />

about vehicles parking on the streets within <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong>. For the overall<br />

safety of our residents, as well as ensuring emergency vehicles are able to<br />

quickly maneuver through our streets, the Board has asked the deputies<br />

patrolling <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong> to address any/all vehicle violations; including<br />

speeding and parking. Section 7 of the Texas Drivers Handbook covers<br />

parking and states:<br />

DO NOT PARK VEHICLES:<br />

• In front of a public or private driveway.<br />

• Within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.<br />

• Within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection.<br />

• Within 30 feet upon the approach to any flashing signal, stop sign, yield<br />

sign or other traffic control signal located at the side of a roadway.<br />

• Do not park more than 18 inches from the curb or in a way that obstructs<br />

the flow of traffic.<br />

For more information, a copy of the Texas Drivers Handbook can be found<br />

at www.txdps.state.tx.us<br />

DEED RESTRICTIONS<br />

• Please make sure to address yard care such as mowing, edging, removal<br />

of weeds and trimming of overgrown shrubs and bushes.<br />

• Architectural Review - prior to starting any project, please review the<br />

Declarations of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong>.<br />

Please remember that all improvements to the exterior of your home<br />

or other structures in your yard must be approved by the Architectural<br />

TRASH PICK-UP DAYS<br />

Wednesdays and Saturdays are the <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong> scheduled trash pickup<br />

days. Please do not set your garbage out early. We continue to see<br />

many residents put trash out 2-3 days before trash day. Please keep your<br />

garbage out of sight until the night before or the day of the scheduled<br />

pick up. Also, please be courteous and do not block the sidewalks with<br />

your bags and or trash bins and remove them in a timely manner after<br />

pick up.<br />

HIT THE BRAKES…<br />

Speeding in <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong> has been a hot topic of discussion lately. There have<br />

been numerous reports of speeding and of running stop signs. We have<br />

notified the Sheriff of these reports and have asked that tickets be issued<br />

to offenders. Several surrounding schools and residents have purchased<br />

kid alert safety signs to be placed in front of their homes and or buildings<br />

to remind people to slow down. If you would like to purchase a safety<br />

sign, here are a couple websites that sell the signs, www.kaplantoys.com<br />

and www.discountschoolsupply.com<br />

LONE OAK CRIME WATCH NEEDS YOUR HELP<br />

<strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong>’s Crime Watch Chairperson would like to encourage more<br />

residents to become involved in the <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong> Crime Watch Program.<br />

More Block Captains are needed! Each Block Captain is responsible<br />

for contacting the residents who are assigned to them when there is<br />

information to pass along regarding incidents in <strong>Lone</strong> <strong>Oak</strong> or surrounding<br />

areas.<br />

Most Block Captains set up their distribution list via email, so it is important<br />

for residents to know who their Block Captain is. The time required is<br />

minimal - attend a few periodic meetings, distribute information, be<br />

aware of happenings in your neighborhood and host a National Night<br />

Out Party once a year! If you would like to volunteer or would just like<br />

more information, please contact your Board.<br />

CFISD STUDENTS’ WORK SELECTED TO HOUSTON<br />

RODEO SCHOOL ART AUCTION<br />

Three student artists had their artwork selected to advance to the<br />

Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo (HLSR) School Art auction.<br />

Cypress Woods High School freshman Magdalena Baughman (Bridger<br />

& Poco), Jersey Village High School junior Amy Muery (Laying Hen) and<br />

Hamilton Middle School eighth grade student Ravine Cohen (Sunkissed<br />

Stallions) each had their work chosen to advance.<br />

“Having student artwork chosen as the top entry for the Houston<br />

Livestock Show and Rodeo is already a huge achievement, but to have<br />

it selected for auction is an added bonus and rare opportunity,” said<br />

Lee Carrier, CFISD coordinator of visual arts. “I am proud of our CFISD<br />

art students for receiving this honor. I would like to thank the HLSR<br />

School Art Committee for continuing to support CFISD’s K-12 th grade art<br />

students. I would also like to thank art teachers of the auction students<br />

for providing this contest opportunity at their campuses.”<br />

Since 1965, the HLSR has recorded more than 9.4 million entries to<br />

its School Art Program. HLSR provides students the opportunity to<br />

earn scholarships, visit workshops and a chance to have their artwork<br />

displayed at the Hayloft Gallery during the Rodeo itself.<br />

A.D PLAYERS AT THE GEORGE THEATER<br />

5420 Westheimer Rd, Houston, TX 77056<br />

Box Office: 713-526-2721<br />

Hours: 10 AM-6 PM, Monday-Friday<br />

We have done everything we can to try and reopen our doors, including<br />

becoming the first theater in the country to install hospital grade UV<br />

lights in our air filtration system. We even offered a safe and distanced<br />

indoor concert as well as an indoor offering from our educational touring<br />

unit this past fall. And when those projects proved financially challenging<br />

and COVID numbers spiked again, we created “Light Up the Lot” and<br />

moved all our programming outdoors.<br />

We’ve never given up. We never will give up. But due to circumstances<br />

beyond our control, we find ourselves needing to pivot once more.<br />

Which brings us to the announcement of our virtual season. Go to www.<br />

adplayers.org for all the information.<br />

<strong>April</strong> Gardening Tips<br />

Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate a great<br />

many pests that die from various causes while in the bag. When you buy<br />

‘loose’ mulch that is trucked to your home, you are also buying ants,<br />

roaches, termites, etc…” Spend a little more on bagged material and save<br />

lots of future pest problems. Keep your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the top<br />

of your homes exposed foundation edge/side. This will aid in minimizing<br />

pests in your home and allow for quick and accurate termite inspections.<br />

Shrubs, Flowers and ground covers - Trim all shrubs/plants at least 12” -<br />

18” back from your home. Do your best to create a plant free zone that is<br />

18” - 24” wide around your home. The exception is your lawn - it can grow<br />

up next to the slab as long as you keep it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab.<br />

The most conducive to termite infestation are groundcover plantings,<br />

growing high against your homes exterior or (especially) ivy that grows<br />

on your walls.<br />

Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring spray<br />

eliminates overwintering pests and fungi while preparing trees to resist<br />

the pest onslaught of summer with residual pesticides. The fall spray also<br />

kills pests from the summer, prevents most fungi from occurring over the<br />

winter and puts your valuable asset off to a healthy winter’s dormancy.<br />

Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide treatment to stop<br />

brown patch in its tracks along with other fungi. If your lawn is thin and<br />

weak in some areas, here are some important fundamentals: a) lawn<br />

aeration” b) fertilization” c) weed control.<br />

Most important is proper watering:<br />

• Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more - then do not<br />

water.)<br />

• Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage.<br />

• In severe drought, water every 5th day.<br />

• Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT.<br />

• A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper, stronger<br />

and more drought resistant roots.<br />

• Less watering also saves you money!!<br />

WHEN IS EARTH DAY?<br />

This observance always falls on <strong>April</strong> 22 nd . On Earth Day, enjoy the tonic<br />

of fresh air, contact with the soil and companionship with nature! Walk<br />

through the woods in search of emerging wildflowers and green moss.<br />

Go outside, no matter what the weather!<br />

Ever wondered how Earth Day started? This observance arose from an<br />

interest in gathering national support for environmental issues. In 1970,<br />

San Francisco activist John McConnell and Wisconsin Senator Gaylord<br />

Nelson separately asked Americans to join in a grassroots demonstration.<br />

McConnell chose the spring equinox (March 21, 1970) and Nelson chose<br />

<strong>April</strong> 22 nd . Millions of people participated and today Earth Day continues<br />

to be widely celebrated with events on both dates.<br />

The most common practice of celebration is to plant new trees for Earth<br />

Day. Other Earth Day activities and ideas are: Plant wildflowers, Go<br />

native! Plants thrive when they’re natural to your area, bring nature into<br />

the garden with plants that attract butterflies, try an organic vegetable<br />

garden and conserve water.<br />
