New Tarver Rendon Site Plan

Submitted by douglas on Tue, 11/15/2011 - 10:26pm

At the MISD Board Meeting tonight they voted on a $13M bond initiative to build a new Tarver-Rendon Elementary at Scandia and Retta Mansfield Road to open in 2013. Attached is the proposed Aerial Site Plan. It is also interesting that they show FM2738 going straight past Sunny Mart around the church to presumably to connect with Rendon Road.

Water use and watering times.

Submitted by mbubel on Thu, 07/21/2011 - 12:11pm

Bethesda water supply has sent out notice of watering restrictions. There should be no watering between 10am and 6pm. This is only common sense since up to 70% of water can be lost to evaporation on a hot day.
My well is not pumping much water so we are supplementing with the hoses but trying to use just enough to keep from losing our landscaping.
For water conservation and healthy plants it is recommended that you water deeply when you do and then wait 2-3 days before re-watering. This causes your lawn and plants to grow deep root systems and makes then less susceptible to drought.

Is This Your Cat?

Submitted by douglas on Thu, 02/04/2010 - 9:59pm

This grey male cat has been coming around a lot for the last couple of months. We are calling him Fang. I was wondering if he belonged to someone.

Lost dog update

Submitted by trmaggie98 on Sat, 08/15/2009 - 10:57pm

Our neighbors have some friends house sitting for them. They saw a man out by our drive way chasing our dog. Since they did not know anything, they assumed it was his dog he was chasing. They did not notice a car outside the house. I have looked around the fence and did not notice any place the dog could have gone through the fence. I know Chris lost 2 dogs earlier this year. One of those was a Yorkie as well. I hope these are two seperate cases, but it appears that there may be some dog theifs driving around from time to time in our neighbor hood.

Mountain Lion

Submitted by Gavin Callaway on Tue, 05/26/2009 - 10:57pm

On Friday at 5:00pm, Angela, Mason and Nina saw a mountain lion in our back yard, standing on a pile of wood. It was a juvenile cat (not full grown, and not a cub).

Angela is a little freaked out since we have small children, so if everyone could keep their eyes peeled. I am contacting the Game Warden to see about getting a tracker or trapper up here.

Homestead Cap

Submitted by drr12 on Thu, 05/01/2008 - 9:02pm

You must vote in May to keep the Homestead tax cap for 65 and over, even if you are not 65 yet. If you are a Texas homeowner then this is VERY important to you. If not, I am sure this will be important to all your friends.

I am sending this email to everyone on my email address list who lives in Texas . I want to be sure you are aware of a constitutional amendment that will be on the ballot at the May election. It is an amendment to correct an error made by the lawmakers when they voted for a reduction in school property taxes in 2005.
