    This fee provides the necessary money to maintain the following subdivision common areas:
              1)  The pool, guards, and insurance
              2)  Extra trash pick up.
              3)  Grounds maintenance for all common areas.

    The clubhouse is a terrific place to have parties, receptions, showers, etc.  Save your home and rent the building for a low rental fee of $150.00, plus a $150 deposit (that is returned as long as the building is returned to the way you accepted it). 

    We have chairs and tables.  There is also a smaller conference room and complete kitchen facilities.  It’s great!

  10. There seems to be an increasing number of loose dogs in the neighborhood.  Whether vicious or not, these loose animals do cause problems.  They are a hazard to drivers, a nuisance on trash days and leave unwanted callng cards in landscaping and yards.  They chase small children on bikes and can cause some tense moments for people walking their dogs legally.  We don’t believe anyone would want to be responsible for any injuries to a child trying to escape from a loose dog.  Please follow the City of Conroe’s leash laws and keep your dog in your yard behind a fence at all times of the day and night.  Be a responsible pet owner, as well as a good neighbor!
