You are invited to an informational meeting and discussion about the proposed odor management technology at the Southwaste Disposal facility on Hurst Street.

• Sponsored by: State Rep. Sarah Davis, the Timbergrove Manor Civic Club, the SN14 Council
• When: Wednesday, May 21^st, 6:00 pm
• Where: Kojak’s Café, 1912 W. 18^th Street
• Who: Rep. Davis; representatives from Southwaste Disposal; homeowners, business owners, and other interested parties from the neighborhoods surrounding the Southwaste Disposal site.
• Why: Southwaste Disposal is a waste treatment facility that processes liquid restaurant waste as well as sewage from Porto-Cans used at Harris County toll booths. Southwaste has filed an application to expand their current operations by 40%. Because unpleasant odors from the existing facility have been a long-term issue with neighbors, Southwaste is proposing an odor abatement plan for the expanded business. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss that plan.

(Kojak’s is kindly offering us this space free of charge. Please consider purchasing a food or beverage item while you are there.)

Come and join the discussion! All are welcome to participate in the cultivation of our great neighborhood.

Door Prizes will be available!

The Moms of Lazybrook have organized our first Lazybrook Easter Egg Hunt and we would love to see and meet many of our neighbors of Lazybrook.  It is this Sunday, April 13th at 2pm.

The principal at Sinclair said that the back gate near the ball field will be unlocked.  That will most likely be the only entrance available and this is located on the back side of Sinclair off of Manville St (street parallel with Ella). The entire area is fenced off so the closest place to park to this entrance is the parking lot off of Manville St (near baseball field) and then along Manville Street when this parking lot gets full.

Egg hunt will start close to 2pm. If you would like to help hide eggs and/or if you have older kids that would like to help hide eggs, please come around 1:45pm.

If anyone has questions, please email Jayme Scott.

I invite your participation in a special meeting of the AR/DR committee.  If you are interested in volunteering, or continuing to volunteer, we are asking that you please make every effort to attend a special AR/DR meeting to be held on Tuesday April 15^th at my home on 2110 Millwood at 7pm.  Since there is no chair and no formal record of who is on the committee we will be reopening all positions to volunteers at this meeting. Furthermore, until or if it is changed, the responsibilities of the committee includes both Architectural Review (pre-construction plan reviews) and Deed Restrictions (reporting and enforcement).

The agenda is as follows:

• Review Committee and Chairpersons responsibilities
• Recognize and fill all 7 committee openings
• Solicit a volunteer and appoint a committee chair
• Review the following outstanding items and submissions
  • Three on-going construction submissions

In advance of the meeting, I have also drafted a some items that should hopefully facilitate our discussion.

Draft Responsibilities of the Committee:

• Report deed restriction violations to the committee and the city or other agency.
• Review, provide feedback and vote on review submittals.
• Assist the chair with any administrative or communications duties as requested.

Draft Responsibilities of the Committee Chair

• Be the primary person responsible for communication to Civic Club, homeowner(s), builder/architect(s), and the city or other agency.
• Organize the monthly (or as needed) review sessions (i.e. solicit feedback and votes on submissions, review any violations).
• Distribute or provide access to plans for review.
• Record approvals or rejection of Review submittals and Deed Restriction violations.
• Be the final or deciding vote on pending reviews.

Thanks in advance for your participation.  The completion of this committee’s responsibilities is vital to the preservation and future of our neighborhood.
