2/28/18 POA Communication Update

The following are a few updates the Board would like to share with the community.A response was received from Harris County Engineering Department concerning the request to lower the speed limit on Cypress North Houston where it passes through Cypress Creek Lakes.  They completed their study and have recommended that the speed limit be lowered to 40 mph east of Fry Road, and that the school zone speed limit also be lowered to 25 mph as well.  The signs will be updated to reflect these changes once they can be fabricated and a crew assigned to install them.  A response was received from Harris County Engineering Department concerning the request to install additional stop signs at the Cypress Creek Bend Lane and Field Cypress Lane intersection.  They completed their study and recommended against installing additional stop signs at this time, however they did recommend relocating, and completing the work as soon as possible, the current stop signs that exist on Field Cypress so that they are closer to the intersection in an attempt to improve sight distance for vehicles trying to turn onto Cypress Creek Bend Lane.  Though this result will not likely have the intended consequence, at least it offers a stepping stone in the right direction should another request for a study be made in the future.  As for addressing excessive speeding on Cypress Creek Bend Lane, the Board has requested that the Constables on patrol continue to monitor this road to help deter speeders.  This week Towne Lake mailed out the notifications to the 32 homeowners along Cypress North Houston who will be having their fencing replaced.  Work is expected to begin mid-March and be completed by mid-April (if the weather cooperates of course).   Upcoming events to put on your calendar: March 22: 1st Quarter Board Meeting @ 7:00pm in the Phase 2 Rec Center (this is just an FYI, official notifications will still be made closer to the meeting date) March 23: FOOD TRUCK FRIDAY (5:30 - 9:00pm) held at the Phase 2 Rec Center (save the date, more details to come) April 7:  CCL Community Spring Garage Sale April 28: CCL SPRING FLING  (4:00 - 9:00pm) to be held at the Phase 1 Splash Pad Park (save the date, more details to come)
