April 2019 Security Newsletter

MT Security

YARD LAMPS:  Operational lamp post lights are a requirement for the neighborhood. At last count, there were 25 lamp post violations. This number has been varying from 25 to 40 violations for some time. Remember, this is an important safety feature in our neighborhood.

SNICKET GATE:  As a reminder, please close the Snicket Gate after passing through it.  It should close itself, but does not always do so.  The gate is there for our convenience, but is also a security feature.  Thank you for your attention to this important matter.  If you should notice that the combination lock is not working, please notify me.

RESIDENT CONTACT SHEETS:  The guards keep a book with the sheet that residents complete so that in case of an emergency, critical time is not lost in trying to make contact with the resident.  This is a safety and security of our operational practices.

OUT OF TOWN NOTICES:  The guards have “Out of Town Notices”, which can be used by residents as an additional level of security and comfort. If you are leaving town, please fill out one of these sheets and leave with the guards.  In addition, you may include emergency contact information on these sheets.

24 HOUR SECURITY GUARDS:  MT residents are fortunate to have 24 hour on site security.  As you all know, this is a huge deterrent to crime.

2019 ASSESSMENTS:  The Memorial Thicket 2019 Assessment Fee of $1,800 was due by January 31, 2019. If you have not yet paid, the amount now due is $1,900 if received by May 31st.  Payments received after that date incur an additional assessment of $25 for each month. Payments can be sent to 702 Plainwood, Houston, Texas 77079. Our assessments are used in a variety of ways to keep Memorial Thicket clean, attractive and secure.  Our largest expenditure each year is for our security service.

Crime Report

MEMORIAL THICKET:  There have been no reports of crime in our neighborhood. AREA NEIGHBORHOODS:  Fleetwood recently had numerous auto break-ins.  Pictures of the suspect vehicle have been turned over to police.  In addition, the information has been passed on to CIS Security, our guard service.  Although there may be additional crime, this is the only one of which I have been notified by adjacent HOA security representatives.
