GARBAGE SERVICE<br />

The trash pick-up schedule in <strong>Sheffield</strong> is Tuesday and Friday. Heavy trash<br />

days are every other Tuesday. Please remember to keep your garbage<br />

cans (blue can) at least three feet away from other garbage cans, cars,<br />

poles or anything that may block the truck from gaining access to the can<br />

on pick-up days. Also remember that items piled up by the garbage can<br />

will not be picked up except on heavy trash days. Recycling is picked up<br />

on Friday (gray can).<br />

REMINDER - the garbage contract is through your water company –<br />

Langham Creek UD. If you need more specific information on pick-days<br />

or any other item that is related to garbage pick-up please call Langham<br />

Creek UD at 281-376-8802 or email them at customerservice@wdmtexas.<br />

com or you can call the garbage company, WCA at 281-368-8397. This is<br />

not an HOA contract or a service that is provided by the HOA.<br />

REMINDER FROM THE SHEFFIELD BOARD<br />

PLEASE NOTE: An ARC application must be submitted and approved<br />

prior to you adding shrubs or fencing in the front of your property.<br />

Please see the HOA guidelines regarding fencing requirements to ensure<br />

that fencing additions meet guidelines and that you submit your plans<br />

and application for approval PRIOR to doing any modifications. The<br />

ARC application form can be downloaded from the Crest Management<br />

website at www.crest-management.com, please select Communities at<br />

the top of the page and then select <strong>Sheffield</strong>. The ARC application will be<br />

located at the bottom of the page. The applications should be submitted<br />

to Crest Management as indicated on the form.<br />

Please, remember <strong>Sheffield</strong> HOA does not manage your trash service.<br />

This service is through Langham Creek MUD (water bill) 281-579-4500. If<br />

you have any questions regarding the new service, please refer back to<br />

the insert that was included in your water bill or contact WCA at 281-368-<br />

8397 or the MUD.<br />

We thank you for your cooperation in this matter.<br />

Sincerely, Your <strong>Sheffield</strong> Board<br />

ARC APPLICATION GUIDELINES<br />

Please request the ARC application for your home improvement or<br />

modification. Please include all the necessary forms, photo, paint<br />

samples, solar screen samples, drawings, brochure, lot survey and your<br />

signature for us to complete your request in a timely manner. If these<br />

items are not submitted with your application, your request is denied.<br />

A LOT SURVEY IS AN ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING OF YOUR PROPERTY<br />

SHOWING YOUR HOME, EASEMENTS AND BUILDING LINES. A COPY<br />

CAME WITH YOUR CLOSING PAPERS.<br />

You will be notified by letter after the committee has made a decision.<br />

They have 30 days to review and respond to your application. If you have<br />

any questions regarding your forms, please contact Crest Management.<br />

IMPORTANT: REMEMBER, WITHOUT PROVIDING EVERYTHING WE NEED-<br />

YOUR APPLICATION WILL BE DENIED<br />

DEED RESTRICTIONS<br />

VIOLATIONS<br />

Do you know what the top three reasons management companies send<br />

out deed restriction letters? The first is not keeping your yard mowed and<br />

weeded. Mow your yard on a regular basis, keeping it a little higher in<br />

the summer months, which helps in water retention and crowding out<br />

weeds. The second is leaving your trashcans out in front of the house or<br />

garage. Trashcans should be kept out of sight (in the garage, behind the<br />

privacy fence or behind shrubs or a purpose built enclosure. Contact Crest<br />

Management if you wish to build a trashcan enclosure for Architectural<br />

Control forms. The third reason is mildew on the house siding. This often<br />

happens on shady areas of the house. Power washing or spraying with a<br />

cleaning solution for mildew often takes care of the problem.<br />

TRAILERS, RV’S AND BOATS<br />

It is a violation of our deed restrictions to park a trailer, mobile home,<br />

RV, boat, 18-wheeler tractor/trailer or camper in your driveway. You can<br />

park these on your property only if they are completely out of sight (in<br />

the garage, in the back yard behind the house). If you cannot meet these<br />

rules, it must be stored offsite (out of the neighborhood). If you have<br />

questions on this, please call the Community Property Manager, Monica<br />

Reyes, at 281-579-0761 or via email at monica@crest-management.com.<br />

Thank you for your cooperation.<br />

GARAGE SALE SIGNS<br />

Placing garage sale signs in the flower and shrub beds within the<br />

neighborhood is not permitted. Such signs found in the flower and shrub<br />

beds will be removed immediately and placed in the trash.<br />

COMMUNITY INFORMATION AND MEETING<br />

NOTICES<br />

If you are interested in receiving Board meeting email notifications,<br />

please go to the Crest website at www.crest-management.com and go<br />

to communities, then scroll down to <strong>Sheffield</strong> and there you will find a<br />

place to sign up with your email address and if you scroll to the bottom,<br />

you can obtain community information, legal documents or applications<br />

as well.<br />

LITTER PICKUP<br />

Just a reminder, if you see trash in the neighborhood, please be a good<br />

neighbor and pick it up and dispose of it properly. Otherwise, then trash<br />

will either end up in someone’s shrubbery or trees or else get washed<br />

down the storm sewers, contributing to mosquito breeding and backing<br />

up of the storm drains in times of heavy rains. Thanks to those of you who<br />

regularly pick up other people’s litter.<br />

PETS<br />

Please remember that you are not allowed by law to let your dogs and<br />

cats run loose in the neighborhood. If caught, you may receive a ticket<br />

in the amount of up to $500 for such a violation (we have had residents<br />

receive such a ticket). If you see loose pets you can contact Harris County<br />

Animal Control.<br />

A number of <strong>Sheffield</strong> residents either walk their dogs or let their cats<br />

run loose. It is a violation of deed restrictions to let your pet leave their<br />

poop on another resident’s lawn or the common grounds (they belong to<br />

all of <strong>Sheffield</strong>’s residents). If your pet does have to go to the bathroom,<br />

please be courteous and carry a plastic bag (store bags or the newspaper<br />

delivery bag are great for this), pick up the pile by placing your hand<br />

inside the bag, grab the pile through the bag, tie the bag up and throw it<br />

in the garbage. Leaving your pet waste around encourages the possible<br />

spread of pet disease, such as Parvo, which can be life threatening, or<br />

parasites.<br />

We’re turning up the volume at VBS to remind each kid that they can<br />

kids these foundational Truths to begin understanding the base of<br />

their confidence. They are Known. They Belong. They are Forgiven. They<br />

can Change. They can Make a Difference. For more information visit<br />

CRIME STOPPERS OF HOUSTON ANNUAL<br />

HOUSTON’S HEROES AWARDS LUNCHEON<br />

Celebrating its 40 years of service to Houston and Texas, Crime Stoppers<br />

of Houston will host its annual Houston’s Heroes Awards Luncheon on<br />

Tuesday, <strong>May</strong> 4, <strong>2021</strong> from 11:30 AM-1 PM at the Royal Sonesta Houston<br />

Hotel to honor outstanding individuals and organizations who have<br />

given exemplary service to make Houston a safer place to live, work, learn<br />

and play.<br />

Due to the public health threat from Covid-19 and the current health and<br />

safety protocols, we will offer both an in-person event with limited seating<br />

as well as virtual access for sponsors and supporters to participate from<br />

home. While Crime Stoppers had to cancel this event last Spring due to<br />

the pandemic, the organization is unable to do so this year and reminds<br />

the community that it relies on this event for funding. Eight distinguished<br />

awards will be awarded at this annual fundraiser that raises funds to keep<br />

our communities safe. For the second year, Crime Stoppers of Houston<br />

will reveal the winner of the Dave Ward Media Excellence Award.<br />

This unique award will honor an entity or individual who has exhibited<br />

media excellence and will be selected by Houston’s Media Icon Dave Ward<br />

himself, along with support from a small committee of his constituents at<br />

Crime Stoppers of Houston. For 40 years, Crime Stoppers of Houston has<br />

focused on solving crime through the famed Tip Line, 713-222-TIPS and<br />

reducing overall criminal activity by preventing it through educational<br />

community programming.<br />

The non-profit, which fundraises year-round will directly benefit from<br />

the luncheon’s proceeds to help further advance the Crime Stoppers’<br />

mission. Attending the <strong>2021</strong> Houston’s Heroes Awards Luncheon is<br />

one easy way to support Crime Stoppers and public safety. The event<br />

is open to participation by all. Individual tickets start at $175 and<br />

sponsorship opportunities are available. Please note: Due to Covid-19,<br />

the event will be a hybrid event and we are urging the community to<br />

still get involved. To purchase tickets, visit https://crime-stoppers.org/<br />

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

all our programming outdoors. We’ve never given up. We never will give<br />

8 BEST SUMMER VACATION<br />

DESTINATIONS IN TEXAS<br />

1. GALVESTON: If you’re looking for a classic beach getaway, then a visit<br />

to Galveston is a must. Galveston beach is a popular summer destination<br />

among Texans, especially those in Houston, since Galveston is only about an<br />

hour drive from downtown. Galveston offers more than just the beach too,<br />

however beach fun is why many people flock here. Enjoy great shopping<br />

along the Strand, escape the heat by visiting Moody Gardens or try the<br />

thrilling water rides at Schlitterbahn Waterpark. There are plenty of hotels,<br />

resorts, and rental properties here that cater to the influx of summer tourism.<br />

2. GARNER STATE PARK: Spend time camping and tubing down the Frio<br />

River when you visit Garner State Park this summer. Garner State Park,<br />

located in Concan, Texas, is a popular summer destination among Texans.<br />

Although there are plenty of hiking and wildlife watching opportunities<br />

in the park, the main draw here is truly the Frio River, where the state park<br />

has 10 acres of river frontage. Many people kayak, tube, fish and even<br />

snorkel here. Garner State Park is so popular during the summer that<br />

the park hosts live music concerts on the weekend. This Texas summer<br />

destination is definitely a family-friendly spot.<br />

3. CORPUS CHRISTI: If you’re looking for more of a quiet beach scene than<br />

Galveston, then Corpus Christi is more your vibe. Tourism grows here during<br />

the summer and for good reason. Corpus Christi, or simply referred to as<br />

“Corpus” by Texans, has beautiful Gulf Coast beaches that are perfect for<br />

sunbathing, surfing, and windsurfing. If you’ve grown tired of the beach scene,<br />

the town of Corpus Christi offers a number of attractions, such as the Texas<br />

State Aquarium, the South Texas Botanical Garden, and the U.S.S Lexington.<br />

4. SAN ANTONIO: Escape to central Texas this summer by vacationing in<br />

San Antonio. With a unique city vibe full of history and culture, this Texas<br />

city makes for a great summer getaway. Stroll the Riverwalk to enjoy a great<br />

meal, explore the Alamo to learn about Texas history or even enjoy a thrilling<br />

roller coaster at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. San Antonio is a great summer vacation<br />

for foodies, since the area is packed with incredible restaurants from hole-inthe-wall<br />

Mexican joints to classy cuisine found along the Riverwalk.<br />

5. SOUTH PADRE ISLAND: South Padre Island may be known as a spring<br />

break destination but it shouldn’t be dismissed as a great summer travel<br />

spot as well. This Gulf Coast town is home to the most beautiful beaches in<br />

the Lone Star State. If you’re hoping for beach time this summer, then South<br />

Padre Island should be your destination of choice. With miles of white sand,<br />

plenty of shops to occupy your non-beach days, and even a Schlitterbahn<br />

Waterpark location, South Padre Island transcends from its spring break<br />

reputation into a popular spot during the summer months too.<br />

6. AUSTIN: Texas’ capital city has plenty to see and do during the summer<br />

months. Known as the Live Music Capital of the World, music lovers will<br />

find plenty of live music acts in Austin when they visit during June, July<br />

and August. Big headliners always hit up ATX during their summer tours,<br />

while local acts can be seen for free anywhere from coffee shops, local<br />

music venues and even the airport. Visit the Texas State Capitol, view the bat<br />

colony under the South Congress Bridge at dusk, shop the electric boutiques<br />

along South Congress Avenue and enjoy a wide variety of food truck cuisine<br />

during your summer stay in Austin. If you’re looking to escape the heat, take<br />

a dip in the Barton Creek Greenbelt or Barton Springs Pool.<br />

7. NEW BRAUNFELS: New Braunfels is a Hill Country destination that has<br />

grown into a popular summer getaway due to the Guadalupe and Comal<br />

Rivers and the up-and-coming craft beer scene here. Beat the Texas heat<br />

by floating in the cool waters of the Comal or Guadalupe Rivers. New<br />

Braunfels has strong German roots, so enjoy a bratwurst and a German<br />

beer during your summer stay here. If dancing and live music is your<br />

thing, then don’t miss out on a visit to the historic Gruene Hall, which is<br />

only 10 minutes outside of New Braunfels.<br />

8. BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK: Last but not least is Big Bend National<br />

Park. Although this park is located in west Texas, a desert environment,<br />

don’t let the heat scare you away. Take a hike during the early mornings<br />

or evenings to catch views of wildlife and avoid the desert heat during<br />

the day. This area is also known for its dark night skies, so stargazing is a<br />

must when you visit during the summer. Take a scenic drive or raft the Rio<br />

Grande to find a cool escape in this desert oasis.<br />

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

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

lobularia, sunflowers, yellow bells, pride of Barbados,<br />

duranta and bat-faced cuphea.<br />

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

plants, okra, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, winter squash,<br />

pumpkins, basil, peppers, lima beans, eggplant, garlic<br />

chives and Malabar greens. If you don’t want to dedicate an<br />

area of your yard, consider planting here and there in your<br />

flowerbeds. Edible landscaping is a popular new trend!<br />

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

or straight sided container (such as a tuna fish can) will help<br />

you know how long to run your irrigation system to apply<br />

1/2”.<br />

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

or better yet, maintain a 3” layer of mulch in all vegetable<br />

and flowerbeds to deter weeds from getting a start.<br />

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

annuals to promote new blooms.<br />

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

slow release organic fertilizer.<br />

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

frequent light sprinkling.<br />

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

bird feeders! Replace water in bird baths to avoid creating<br />

mosquito breeding spots.<br />
