We have to ask "What is GIS and what does it do?"
At the 2015 Neighborhoods USA (NUSA) 40th Annual Conference on Neighborhood concerns, Larry Nierth presented a workshop entitled "GIS in City Support and Planning" describing how Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has become a prolific tool that aids in the analysis of complex spatial problems and explored how GIS can help residents and government officials study and develop strategies to address various neighborhood issues. Items discussed included:
A big "THANK YOU" to our own Jack Valinski with the City's Department of Neighborhoods for securing this month's speaker.
The CoH GIS website can be found here.
BUT Solid Waste Management Department will be suspending some of its collection services, specifically, yard waste, recycling and junk waste/tree waste until further notice.
This means they will only be collecting what is in the black trash containers; they will not be emptying the green recycle trash containers, nor will they be picking up the grass/leaf/yard debris in the CoH approved bags. They are also suspending the monthly heavy trash pickups.
These wastewater plants provide sanitary sewer service to zip codes: 77024, 77041, 77043, 77055, 77077, 77079, 77080, and 77094.
“Thank you to our amazing community for helping Houston Water by minimizing the amount of wastewater that entered the sanitary sewer system while repairs were made,” said Carol Haddock, Acting Director of Public Works, “take a well-deserved long shower, catch up on laundry and know that we are very grateful for your patience and help.”
Contact Robert Moore with Meritage Homes at 713-358-0352 or robert.moore@meritagehomes.com for more information.
Due to the recent flooding events around Houston, we have decided to postpone our September 19, 2017 PIP meeting - The Houston Police Department is and will be on full mobilization for the near future.
We regret missing a chance to interact with this community, but look forward to our next opportunity!
Please mark your calendars for the next BIG event in the area.

Over the Memorial Day weekend, we had several calls regarding burglaries of motor vehicle and thefts from vehicles. In all reports doors were left unlock and unfortunately personal property was stolen. The theft from a vehicle were auto parts.
At this time, we have no evidence or leads to help further our investigations. I have also checked with Houston Police Department due to the number of reports they have taken and they also do not have any evidence or leads.
This year, Spring Shadows has been plagued with burglary of motor vehicle calls. I can safely say that between 90-95% of these vehicle burglaries involved unsecured vehicle doors as no forced entry was made by the suspect(s). All of these vehicle burglaries occur during the night time hours. These thieves are targeting computers, wallets, purses, cell phones, cash money and the most concerning items are firearms/handguns.
Pct. 5 Deputies are patrolling the subdivision and finding open garage doors and vehicle dome lights on. The Deputies are getting out and trying to notify owners to secure their property.
Please help curtail crime in our area by locking your vehicle doors and garages. Remove your personal property from the interior of your vehicles.
If any Resident has cameras outside their homes for security purposes, please check them out daily to look for suspicious person(s) and or vehicle(s). Please let us know as soon as possible if you have captured anything that might help in any investigation. Please check the outside of your homes to see if it is well lit and your alarms are working properly.
Lt. Hutter will do home inspections at no charge and will give you recommendations to secure your home (see information below).
FOR HOME SECURITY INSPECTIONS, A FREE HOME INSPECTION SURVEY, TO SAVE MONEY ON YOUR HOME INSURANCE OR GET SIMPLE SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO BETTER SECURE YOUR HOME, CALL THE PCT 5 CONSTABLE’S OFFICE AT 281-463-6666 AND ASK FOR LIEUTENANT MITCH HUTTER.
