We continue to have Constable Crouch randomly patrolling Bellaire West.

He is attempting to assist our community in encouraging all residents to follow the city ordinances regarding heavy trash pick-up. City inspectors will tour the neighborhood and if you are not in compliance with the trash pick up guidelines, you may be issued a citation which will result in a fine which could be about $300.

If you would be able to help with pool registration on, MEMORIAL Day weekend and the following two weekends in May, please contact Lucy Schmotzer or any other board member. We can really use your help in getting everyone registered. It takes the whole community to keep our common amenities available for everyone.

The center is now available to be rented. Joanne Radford has rejoined the board and is responsible for community center rentals. She may be contacted at 281-433-9508.

Work is complete at last on the Community Center. We are very pleased with the results both inside and outside. We would like to thank Jacob White Construction for the excellent job they did on the exterior and KB Flooring for the great job they did on our new floors.

You should have received your bill from Genesis Management for the $120 annual maintenance fee due for 2009. Late charges will begin to accrue if not paid by February 1, 2009. You are encouraged to pay this fee promptly. It is not an optional fee.

Failure to pay could result in late fees, legal fees, and even foreclosure. If you have a problem paying your fees and any additional charges you may owe, please contact Genesis so that together a plan can be worked out that is acceptable to you and the Association.
