FROM THE NCCIA BOARD OF DIRECTORS
HEADS UP ABOUT KIDS’ SAFETY
We have had several incidents recently that are prompting us to remind
parents about safety for their children when they are out on their own in
our neighborhood. Children should be mindful of strangers approaching
them in vehicles and in person. They should be taught to be very
cautious. If anything suspicious occurs, the children should make note
of the details immediately so as to be of most use to our constables. Any
incident should be reported to the constables immediately afterward.
Please also have the constables’ number in your children’s phones. The
constables are always on patrol in our neighborhood and can respond
very quickly to any situation. The Precinct 5 dispatch number is: 281-463-
6666. This reminder is especially timely now, as many children ride or
walk to school by themselves.
A GOOD TIME WAS HAD BY ALL
Hats off to the Nottingham Country Mom’s Group for putting on a
fabulous July 4 th parade for the kiddos in our neighborhood. More than
100 kids participated and the kids had an absolute blast. We are grateful
to the mom’s group for taking the time to organize a wonderful event!
INTERESTED IN JOINING THE NCCIA BOARD?
The NCCIA Board of Directors is responsible for keeping our neighborhood
looking great and handles myriad details about which the rest of us
are oblivious. It really isn’t a large time commitment - one meeting per
month plus the role you adopt. That could be anything from looking at
financials to deed restriction oversight to managing Rennie Park. If you
are interested in applying for a position on the Board, you must submit
your name for the ballot by Oct. 1 st . Board members are elected/reelected
at the Board meeting in December. More information will be sent
out via an eblast soon.
BEST WISHES TO KATHRYN O’BRIEN
We would like to offer our most gracious thanks and good wishes to
former NCCIA Board member Kathryn O’Brien, who has moved from the
neighborhood and is no longer on our Board. Kathryn was an excellent
Board member and did a wonderful job of managing community events
that brought many neighbors together. “Kathryn did a very good job
indeed and we hate to see her go,” said Don Mach, NCCIA Board president.
“We wish her and her family the best of luck in their future endeavors.”
RENTING ROOMS IS NOT ALLOWED
NCCIA has been getting many calls about NC homeowners renting out
rooms in their homes. This is strictly forbidden in our deed restrictions,
which means you cannot rent a room in your house to people you know
or list rooms on sites like Airbnb or Vrbo. All violators will receive cease
and desist letters and will be sued if they do not comply with our deed
restrictions.
AN UPDATE ON WALWORTEN HOUSE
We are pleased to report that an unlicensed group home has been
addressed on Walworten. Harris County was able to close the facility
down and only the owner of the home and her two children are allowed
to live there at this point. The NCCIA Board wishes to commend Sgt. R.
Felix for his excellent handling of the situation. ~ NCCIA Board of Directors

KATY ISD SAVES OVER $4M BY IMPLEMENTING
ENERGY SAVING STRATEGIES
Twenty-four Katy Independent School District campuses have earned the
Energy Star Certification by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and
have saved the District over $4 million to date due to their efforts. Since 2019,
Katy ISD has partnered with Cenergistic, a Texas-based company that helps
school districts conserve energy through strategies that include fine-tuning
air conditioning (AC) run times, identifying unused AC/lighting schedules,
overnight equipment checks, updating technology and other protocols.
“Through approved bond projects, the Katy ISD Operations Division has
been able to install new equipment that is both energy-efficient and
more reliable for campuses and District facilities,” said Chief Operations
Officer Ted Vierling. “Small changes such as upgrading lighting from old
technology to light-emitting diode (LED) to larger adjustments such as
replacing boilers and chillers have improved efficiency for both energy and
water consumption,” added Vierling. Over the past three years, Katy ISD has
committed to making energy conservation a priority due to the rising cost
of electricity, gas and water. Every dollar saved on these utilities amounts to
greater funding that can be redirected to classrooms, teachers and students.
Looking to sustain conservation efforts now and well into the future, all
new Katy ISD facilities are built with energy-efficient components such as
LED lighting, automatic shut-off switches for classroom lighting, upgraded
control systems and utilization of natural light whenever practical.
The following campuses have been awarded the Energy Star Certification:
Elementary Campuses:, Alexander Elementary, Bear Creek Elementary,
Cimarron Elementary, Creech Elementary, Davidson Elementary, Fielder
Elementary, Golbow Elementary, Griffin Elementary, Hayes Elementary,
Jenks Elementary, Leonard Elementary, McRoberts Elementary,
Randolph Elementary, Shafer Elementary, Sundown Elementary, Williams
Elementary, Wilson Elementary, Wolfe Elementary, Wolman Elementary
Junior High Campuses: McDonald Junior High, McMeans Junior High,
Memorial Parkway Junior High, Tays Junior High
High School Campuses: Tompkins High School
KATY ISD SMART RESTART AND SPEAKUP
CAMPAIGNS RECOGNIZED BY STATE AND
NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS
The National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA) recently
recognized the Katy Independent School District Communication
Department with a Golden Achievement Award for its exemplary work
on the District’s Smart Restart - Return to School campaign, which was
executed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The campaign focused on educating and engaging students, parents,
staff and community members on the return to school plan, safety
protocols and evolving initiatives impacted by the pandemic. Also this
year, the Texas School Public Relations Association (TSPRA) awarded
the Communications Department with a Gold Star Award, the highest
school public relations honor in the state, for the District’s SpeakUp
Safe Schools campaign - a multi-level marketing and communication
initiative designed to build awareness around safety topics; encourage
the use of the SpeakUp anonymous reporting app; emphasize student
ownership of safety protocols; educate parents; and reinforce drug and
alcohol awareness. Print and promotional materials included posters,
public service announcements (PSA) videos and website and social
media messaging. Additionally, a Best of Category Award was earned for
the Department’s scripting, editing and filming of the PSA video titled
“Vaping, It’s Up to You,” which was part of the campaign.
“Clear, concise and timely messaging for our school community has always
been a key component to our District’s outreach efforts,” said Dr. Andrea
Grooms, Chief Communications Officer. “While our Communications
team is small, their responsibilities are immense and their outcomes,
far-reaching. They are an extremely talented and dedicated group of
professionals - always prioritizing the informational needs of Katy ISD
families and staff, no matter the time or circumstances,” added Grooms.
The Katy ISD Communication Department was recognized during the
annual TSPRA and NSPRA conventions this year.
DONATUTORS

FRIED CHICKEN
DINNER IN A BOWL
BHG.COM
Photo Credit: Jason Donnelly
Ingredients
4 cups shredded cabbage*
1 cup shredded carrots (2 medium)*
¼ cup thinly sliced green onions (2)
½ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
6 purchased or homemade corn muffins
¼ cup butter, melted
14 ounces frozen cooked, breaded chicken breast fillets,
prepared according to package directions
1 15.5-22 ounce can barbecue beans
1 ½ cups chopped green, yellow, and/or red tomatoes (2
large)
¾ cup bottled ranch salad dressing
* If desired, substitute 5 cups packaged shredded cabbage with
carrot (coleslaw mix) for cabbage and carrots.
Directions
Step 1: For slaw, in a large bowl combine cabbage, carrots,
and green onions; toss to mix. In a small bowl stir together
mayonnaise, sugar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Add dressing
to cabbage mixture, tossing to combine. Cover and chill for 2
hours, stirring occasionally.
Step 2: Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375°F. Cut corn muffins into
1-inch cubes. Place cubes in a large shallow baking pan; drizzle
with melted butter, tossing to coat. Bake for 16 to 18 minutes or
until crisp, stirring twice. Set aside.
Step 3: Transfer slaw mixture to an 8- to 10-cup clear glass bowl.
Cut chicken into strips. Arrange chicken strips evenly over slaw.
Spoon beans over chicken pieces, spreading evenly. Sprinkle
corn muffin cubes over beans. Top with tomatoes. If desired,
cover and chill for up to 6 hours.
Step 4: Just before serving, spoon dressing over all.
