PURPOSE OF HUNTER’S PARK<br />
COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION<br />
Hunter’s Park Community Association handles the<br />
financial and legal affairs of the subdivision. Each lot<br />
owner is required to pay an annual maintenance fee<br />
which is used to pay street lights; pay taxes on and<br />
maintain the common areas, such as the swimming<br />
pools, tennis courts, etc.; pay for security; and pay legal<br />
expenses incurred to enforce the deed restrictions.<br />
The Board meets the 2nd Thursday of every<br />
month at 6:30 p.m. in the meeting room at the<br />
community building. Residents are welcome to attend.<br />
Anyone wishing to place an item on the agenda<br />
should call the HPCA office in advance.<br />
The Annual Meeting of Members is held on the<br />
4th Thursday of <strong>January</strong>.<br />
Members hold three year staggered terms and are<br />
elected. The election process is as follows:<br />
1) Mail in ballots will be mailed out with the Annual<br />
Maintenance fee statements.<br />
2) Voting in person will begin on the 1st Monday<br />
after the Annual Meeting ending on the following<br />
Saturday at 7pm.<br />

DEED RESTRICTIONS<br />
Deed restrictions are strictly enforced by Hunter’s Park<br />
Community Association. Copies of the restrictions<br />
are available on our website at www.bearcreeknetwork.org.<br />
Complaint forms are included in every<br />
<strong>Bear</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> Newsletter for your convenience. The<br />
association’s office verifies complaints and writes<br />
letters to violators. HPCA will initiate legal action<br />
when warranted, to enforce the deed restrictions.<br />
ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL<br />
You must submit any plans for improvements or<br />
modifications of your home to the Hunter’s Park<br />
Community Association Office. Your plans will be<br />
checked to insure that they comply with the deed<br />
restrictions. This includes re-roofing, playforts (8<br />
ft. height limit), temporary storage buildings, etc.<br />
Please call the office at 281 463-1216 if you need<br />
any additional help or assistance.<br />
SECURITY<br />
Hunter’s Park Community Association provides<br />
additional security currently through a contract<br />
with Commissioners Court for four Harris County<br />
Constables. HPCA also hires off-duty deputies on<br />
an as-needed basis for additional coverage.<br />
Please call the Constable’s Office at 281 463-6666<br />
to report any suspicious person, activity or for vacation<br />
watch. There is a voluntary $2.00 security<br />
contribution on the M.U.D. #6 water bill that goes to<br />
each homeowner. The voluntary contributions can<br />
only be used to pay for security. This contribution<br />
enables HPCA to provide more coverage without<br />
raising maintenance fees.<br />

LEASH LAW<br />
Animals that are not properly restrained pose a threat to all our<br />
residents. While you may know your pet is friendly, an animal<br />
running at someone who is walking by is very scary for that person.<br />
Many children are afraid of animals and become frightened, which<br />
could result in the child getting hurt trying to avoid the animal.<br />
Harris County Animal Control advises, “All dogs and cats must be<br />
kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris<br />
County, Texas. The custodian of a dog or cat is not authorized to<br />
have, harbor or keep any unlicensed dog or cat nor to allow any<br />
dog or cat to become a stray.”<br />

HOUSTON, TEXAS 77084<br />
BEAR CREEK IS TOUGH ON DEED RESTRICTIONS<br />
Restraint is defined as “the control of a dog or cat under the<br />
following circumstances:<br />
1. When it is controlled by a line or leash not more than six (6)<br />
feet in length, if the line or leash is held by a human being, who<br />
is capable of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question<br />
2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle<br />
3. When it is on the premise of the custodian and the animal does<br />
not have access to sidewalk or street.”<br />
While it may be nice to have your animal out in the yard while you<br />
work or play, it is against the law, unless the animal is properly<br />
restrained.<br />
Let’s all help keep our community a safe and comfortable place<br />
for all our residents by being responsible pet owners. This will not<br />
only protect anyone who may be walking or bicycling in the area,<br />
but also the pet owner who could be held legally responsible or<br />
possibly sued for failing to properly restrain their pet.<br />
Please remember that cats fall under the same laws as dogs and<br />
must be licensed and kept restrained when not on the premises<br />
of the owner. We’ve been told that spreading moth balls in flower<br />
beds might keep cats away.<br />
To make a complaint or report an animal that is not properly<br />
restrained please contact:<br />
Harris County Precinct #5, Contract #87: 281-463-6666<br />

BARKING DOGS<br />
If you have a problem with a neighbor’s dog constantly barking,<br />
you should first contact the pet owner and make them aware of<br />
the problem. In the event that doesn’t work, you should then<br />
contact the Constables at 281-463-6666 to file a complaint.<br />
LOOSE OR LOST PETS & DOG BITES<br />
Contact Harris County Animal Control at 281-999-3191 or 3194.<br />
HARRIS COUNTY ALARM DETAIL<br />

fees. You can get a copy of the permit application and review the<br />
regulations regarding permit requirements at the Harris County<br />
Sheriff’s Office website. The form can be printed for mailing with<br />
the applicable fee from the website. For more info, call the Alarm<br />
Detail office at 713-755-4600 during normal business hours.<br />
STREET LIGHTS OUT?<br />
Contact Centerpoint Energy at 713-207-2222. You will need to give<br />
the address where the pole is located and provide the stenciled<br />
number on the front of the pole. You may also report the outage<br />

LIGHT JARS<br />
Do you get that let down<br />
feeling in <strong>January</strong> once all the<br />
decorations come down? My<br />
favorite part of the holiday<br />
season is the lights and my<br />
husband teases that YEAR<br />
ROUND I would have the<br />
inside of our house looking<br />
like the Griswald’s outdoors<br />
if he let me. (He is probably<br />
right, lol.)<br />

So my compromise is that I<br />
get Mason jars, mayo or pickle jars or even some vases and I use<br />
the battery operated string lights to make “normal” decorations.<br />
In one, along with the lights, I have the glass beads you can get at<br />
the dollar store in many colors; in another I have seashells we got<br />
in Galveston. I am sure you can find something that would match<br />
your own home and style to place in these.<br />
So if you are like me and just need that pick-me-up of some bright<br />
twinkling lights once the decorations are all down, make one or more<br />
of these and have them year round! - By Michelle Gray, KPC Editor<br />

“I’m In PAIN”<br />
Can Chiropractic Help ME ?<br />
We are often asked, “What’s the best way of finding out whether or not a doctor<br />
of chiropractic can help my problem?”<br />
We believe the answer can be found in a complete chiropractic consultation and examination,<br />
including x-rays. And to help find out for sure, we will do a complete consultation<br />
and examination, including x-rays, if necessary,<br />
(procedures that normally cost $187.00 or more) for $25.00.<br />
We will make this special program available through October.<br />
The only exception to the offer involves personal injury cases (workers’ compensation<br />
and auto accidents) in which there is no charge directly to the patient.<br />
THESE CONDITIONS ARE SOME<br />
OF THE DANGER SIGNALS:<br />
Loss of sleep<br />
Scoliosis (Curvature of the spine)<br />
Leg pain & numbness<br />
Arm pain & numbness<br />
Backache<br />
Fatigue<br />
Tension<br />
Whiplash Injury<br />
