z Ten Things Every HOA Resident Should Know z1. Know the Rules – Understand and
comply with the restrictive covenants,
by-laws, and other rules and regula-
tions of your neighborhood.
2. Know that you must pay your assess-
ments on time. Assessment invoices are
mailed on or about December 1st of
each year with a due date of January
1st. Any unpaid amounts as of Febru-
ary 1st are subject to interest charges.
3. Please do not ignore communications
from you homeowners association,
especially notices that may regard out-
standing assessments or deed restric-
tion violations. Achieving compliance
with our community’s deed restrictions
is the primary defense for protecting
the property values of our homes. The
board has the responsibility to govern
fairly and consistently in the interest of
all members, which includes placing
liens or foreclosing for nonpayment of
assessments, and taking legal action
when necessary to achieve compliance
with our restrictions.
4. You must maintain your property ac-
cording to the governing documents
and rules.
5. Know that submitting a Home Im-
provement Request Form and being
granted approval is required before
making any exterior repairs or reno-
vations to your property. This includes
roof and siding replacement, swimming
pool installation, painting, sheds, fences,
and more. Please contact the HOA if
you have questions or need assistance.
6. Know that your association has
certain responsibilities to the mem-
bership including compliance with
federal and state laws, fiduciary re-
sponsibility by board members, elec-
tions, meeting notices, meetings, due
process and much more as defined int
covenants and by laws.
7. Stay informed and participate in the
business of your homeowner associa-
tion by reading the meeting minutes,
attending the annual and monthly
meetings, understanding the budget,
and volunteering to serve on a com-
mittee or the board.
8. Maintain a current address with
your homeowners association. This
is critical if you are a member of a
homeowner’ association but do not
live in the community and we need
to contact you regarding an issue.
Examples include rental property, sec-
ond homes, homes used by children in
college or retired parents, or invest-
ment property.
9. Know that if your home is rental
property or occupied by others, the
HOA is entitled to a copy of the
lease and that it is your responsibil-
ity to ensure that tenants/occupants
understand that they must comply
with our restrictive covenants. This in-
cludes association rules regarding use
of playgrounds, pools, tennis courts,
parking and other common areas.
10. Know who to call. Maintain contact
information for the Greenwood Forest
HOA. Please call 281-444-3522 ext. 4
for information about assessments and
rental information or 281-444-3522
ext.5 for information about deed restric-
tions and home improvement requests.
2 THE FOREST NEWS October 2019
Champions ESD is teaming up with the National
Fire Protection Association®
(NFPA®)—the official spon-
sor of Fire Prevention Week for
more than 90 years—to promote
this year’s Fire Prevention Week
campaign, “Not Every Hero
Wears a Cape. Plan and Practice
Your Escape!” The campaign
works to educate everyone
about the small but important
actions they can take to keep
themselves and those around them safe.
NFPA statistics show that in 2017 U.S. fire depart-
ments responded to 357,000 home structure fires.
These fires caused 2,630 fire deaths and 10,600 fire
injuries. On average, seven people died in a fire in a
home per day during 2012 to 2016.
“These numbers show that home fires continue to
pose a significant threat to safety,” said Lorraine
Carli, NFPA’s vice president of Outreach and
Advocacy. “In a typical home fire, you may have as
little as one to two minutes to escape safely from
the time the smoke alarm sounds. Escape planning
and practice can help you make the most of the time
you have, giving everyone enough time to get out.
While NFPA and the Champions ESD are focusing
on home fires, these messages apply to virtually any
location.
“Situational awareness is a skill people need to use
wherever they go,” said Fire Chief Dan Shelor. “No
matter where you are, look for available exits. If the
alarm system sounds, take it seriously and exit the
building immediately.”
Champions ESD will be at elementary and Pre-K
childcare schools in support of this year’s Fire
Prevention Week campaign, “Not Every Hero Wears
a Cape. Plan and Practice Your Escape!”.

Week and home escape planning, visit fpw.org.

PAST DUE ASSESSMENTS
Assessments are the way your HOA operates and
maintains the common areas. When an assessment
is past due the entire subdivision is affected.
At this time there are about 230 past due
assessment accounts in Greenwood Forest which
equates to about 14% of the households receiving
for free services like Constable patrol, street
lights and common area maintenance that their
neighbors have paid for.
It also means that improvements and expansion
of common areas cannot be completed as quickly
and fully as your HOA Board and residents would
like. The condition of the common areas can affect
your home’s value and, like infrastructure around
the United States, the longer improvements and
updates are put off, the higher the cost.
The HOA makes every effort to find solutions
for homeowners with financial concerns, but
cannot work with homeowners who ignore
their obligations or do not respond to our
correspondence about their assessment account.
As directed by our attorney, a new collection policy
has been adopted. This policy is posted on the
Greenwood Forest web site at greenwoodforest.net.
If you have any questions about the assessment
account on your property, please contact the
Club Office to discuss your account with the
Club Manager or to make arrangements to speak
confidentially with the HOA Board.

6 THE FOREST NEWS October 2019
Happy autumn to all of you! Although the weather
does not always feel like fall, the days are getting
shorter and a bit crisper!
The women of Greenwood Forest were welcomed
back on September 12th for a wonderful meeting
with not one but THREE special guest speakers. Ken
Latimer, president of the Home Owner’s association,
Marianne Strong from Greenwood Forest Elementary
School, and Maria Hartman from Precinct 4 Fun for
Seniors Program each shared interesting information
with the group.
The new calendar was unveiled and there will be so
many fun, informative, activities this year to keep
everyone excited. A new name and new bylaws were
voted on for this new club, which is a merger of the
women’s club and the garden club. This meeting was
also the time for lots of signing up for special interest
groups, such as beginner’s bridge, bridge, busy hands
(knitting and crocheting), and quilting, and also sign-
ing up for extra trips, such as a trip to the stunning
Mercer Arboretum, which has been totally rebuilt.
Looking forward, October 24th will be the famous
Greenwood Forest INDOOR GARAGE SALE! If
you are looking to donate some of your treasures and
collectibles, contact Carol Pomes at 5919 Pinewilde.
Her phone number is 281-440-4864. And if you
are looking to buy all kinds of special goodies, mark
that date on your calendar! Remember that all pro-
ceeds are used in Greenwood Forest to beautify the
neighborhood, such as enhancing the landscaping
at entrances.
This month, the Yard of the Month honors go to
Ken and Karen Grubaugh at 5819 Pebble Springs.
Take a drive by this lovely yard and you will see why
this home was chosen for the honors! How wonder-
ful to live in a neighborhood where people take so
much pride in their surroundings. Thank you, Ken
and Karen!
If you have never thought about coming to one of the club meetings, drop by at our next meet-ing October 10th at the clubhouse. You will be sure to see some of your neighbors and meet a few new friends.

Safety & Security
HALLOWEEN SAFETY
It’s October and that means, Halloween is just a few weeks away. Greenwood Forest will be crawling with
Witches, Ghosts, Goblins, and all sorts of creatures. Everyone loves a good scare on Halloween, but not when
it comes to child safety. There are several easy and effective behaviors that parents can share with kids to help
reduce their risk of injury.
Greenwood Forest has a high volume of children Trick or Treating in our neighborhood. To help reduce the
danger of children not seen by moving vehicles or running from behind parked cars, a great safety tip is to park
all cars in a drive way. Removing the obstruction of cars parked on streets during trick or treat hours will be an added safety precaution.
Hard Facts
On average, children are more than twice as like ly to
be hit by a car and killed on Halloween than on any
other day of the year.
Top Tips
Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape
or stickers and, if possible, choose light colors.
Have kids use glow sticks or flashlights to help
them see and be seen by drivers.
Children under the age of 12 should not be alone
at night without adult supervision. If kids are
mature enough to be out without supervision,
remind them to stick to familiar areas that are
well lit and trick-or-treat in groups.
Popular trick-or-treating hours are 5:30 pm to
9:30 pm so be especially alert for kids during those
hours.
When selecting a costume make sure it is the right
size to prevent trips and falls.
Walk Safely
Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals
and crosswalks.
Look left, right and left again when crossing and
keep looking as you cross.
Put electronic devices down and keep heads up
and walk, don’t run, across the street.
Teach children to make eye contact with drivers
before crossing in front of them.
If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic as far
to the left as possible.
Watch for cars that are turning or backing up.
Teach children to never dart out into the street or
cross between parked cars.
Drive Extra Safely on Halloween
Slow down and be especially alert in residential
neighborhoods.
Take extra time to look for kids at intersections,
on medians and on curbs.
Enter and exit driveways slowly and carefully.
Eliminate any distractions inside your car
so you can concentrate on the road and
your surroundings.
Drive slowly, anticipate heavy pedestrian traffic
and turn your headlights on earlier in the day to
spot children from greater distance.

Community News
WHAT ARE CC&RS ANYWAY?When our community was developed, the developer
filed with the state a series of documents designed to
uphold the integrity of our community and spell out
the duties of our association, and the responsibilities
of each of us, the owners. Those documents are often
referred to as the governing documents and are made
up of the Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, and
the CC&R’s (Conditions, Covenants & Restrictions).
The Articles of Incorporation are a one-page
document that must be filed with the Secretary of
State. It simply states that a non-profit corporation
is being formed (our community association).
The Bylaws dictate the powers and duties
of the Board of Directors (when meetings
occur, how the Board is elected, etc.)
The CC&R’s dictate the powers and duties of
the corporation and regulate both the physical
characteristics of our development and the
lifestyles of our residents. Of all of the governing
documents, the CC&R’s are often the least
understood but inarguably the most important.
In order to close escrow on your home, you signed
a series of papers, one of which stated that you
had read the CC&R’s and agree to abide by them.
When escrow closed, you entered in to a contractual
agreement with the other owners in our community
to conform to the dictates of those CC&R’s. This
is where some owners get confused. The confusion,
however, is easily cleared up once the CC&R’s are
read, or re-read as the case may be. After all, how
many of you actually read and understood the
CC&R’s before closing escrow? Those that did are to
be applauded. The rest of us have had to take a crash-
course on the CC&R’s through trial and error. Often
we have found out that we are in non-compliance
to the CC&R’s or Rules & Regulations through
correspondence received from our HOA. So, we dust
off that old copy of the CC&R’s and, sure enough,
there it is in black and white, the exact restriction that
we completely forgot about. Being responsible owners
we correct the situation and, armed with a new-found
knowledge of our CC&R’s, we continue with our
lives, undisturbed (that is, until we “forget” something
else and have to go through the process once again).
Often we focus on the “pain in the neck” aspect
of our CC&R’s, but by doing so we miss the real
beauty of their purpose. The CC&R’s provide
a structural framework to help residents of
different backgrounds, ideals, and perceptions
to live together in harmony and by doing so, the
community and our property values benefit.
If we had no architectural controls (as spelled out
in the CC&R’s) or no ability to correct violations
of the Rules & Regulations (also spelled out in the
CC&R’s), then there would be no harmony and
ultimately our community and our property values
would suffer. In other words, the CC&R’s are good
business… they help ensure that our property values
are maintained and our investments protected.
So, the next time you get a note from our HOA
explaining why you are in non-compliance with
the CC&R’s or the Rules & Regulations, take
a moment to remember what the spirit of the
CC&R’s embrace (protection of your investment)
and know that our Board of Directors are taking
their responsibilities seriously and are working to
protect, preserve and enhance our property values.

New Exhibitions, Afternoon Tea, and Steinway Concert Planned at Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts
The Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts has a busy October planned, with fall exhibitions, an Afternoon Tea, and a dedication concert for their new Steinway grand piano.
Fall ExhibitionsFrom urban art to the majesty of the Grand Canyon,
the Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts will showcase
the contrasting beauty of natural landscapes and street
art in its Fall 2019 exhibitions.
Grand Canyon Photographs: Celebrating the Centennial 1919-
2019 by American photographer Mark Burns will be
featured in the Main Gallery of the museum, while Anat
Ronen: Urban Legend brings large-scale urban art to the
Rebecca Cole Gallery. Both exhibitions open September
10 and continue through January 11, 2020.
Grand Canyon Photographs celebrates the majesty of the
Grand Canyon and commemorates the 100th anniver-
sary of its establishment as a National Park. Through
black and white photography, color photography, pan-
oramic images and contemporary prints, the exhibition
seeks to capture the grandeur of one of our nation’s
greatest treasures. The exhibition also features an audio
recording, The Sound of the Colorado River, made by Burns
at Lee’s Ferry, mile-marker 1 of the Grand Canyon, to
create a multi-sensory experience within the exhibition.
Anat Ronen: Urban Legend showcases two huge murals
that Ronen has painted on the walls of the Rebecca
Cole Gallery at the Pearl, as well as images of other
large-scale work she has done. In a nod to the adjacent
Grand Canyon exhibition, Ronen has also created
a large, interactive painting of the Grand Canyon.
Visitors will be encouraged to stand in that installation
and take their photo, revealing an astounding 3D effect.
“Selfie Saturdays” will highlight this opportunity for
weekend visitors at the Pearl.
Over the course of the exhibition, Anat Ronen will also
provide lectures, talks, demonstrations and workshops at
the Pearl.
Steinway Dedication Concert
The Pearl will host a special concert in the Main
Gallery on Sunday, October 20 to dedicate their new
Wanda and Fred Pauling Steinway concert-grand piano.
Surrounded by Mark Burns’ beautiful images of the
Grand Canyon, guests will enjoy a concert of American
songs and spirituals performed by pianist Roger Keele,
soprano Nancy Curtis, and baritone Dorceal Duckens.
Afternoon Tea
The Pearl’s 10th Annual Afternoon Tea, “On the South
Rim,” will take place at 3 pm Thursday, November 14.
This year’s Tea honors Susan Diehl for her extraor-
dinary service to the Pearl, and takes place at Shirley
Acres, 217 Woerner Road in Houston, 77090.
Guest speaker for the event is photographer Mark
Burns, whose work, Grand Canyon Photographs: Celebrating
the Centennial 1919 – 2019 is on exhibition at the Pearl
this fall.
Single tickets, tables and sponsorships are available for
this fun annual event that benefits the Pearl.
Museum Hours
Located at 6815 Cypresswood Drive in Spring, the
Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts is open 10 am to
5 pm Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is free.
Donations are appreciated and help continue the Pearl’s
mission of art, education, and community.
About the Pearl
The Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts exists to pro-
vide direct, first-hand access to original works of art,
and to offer outstanding educational and public pro-
gramming. As the only Fine Arts museum in Harris
County outside the city center of Houston, the Pearl

individuals, businesses and foundations from the greater
Houston community, and is free to all.
