Champion’s Industries Will Pick Up Household Trash and Recycle Wednesday, January 11th.

Tomorrow, Wednesday, January 11th, Champion’s Industries will pick up household trash and recycle.

Texas Pride is supposed to service us on our normal schedule of Tuesdays (household only) and Fridays (household and recycling). Due to poor service and a huge backlog of needed waste/recycle collections across the district, Champion’s Industries will provide supplemental service.

All waste, be it household waste, recycling and green debris, will be disposed of as waste by Champion’s during this supplemental service period.

Regular services days continue to be by Texas Pride on Tuesdays and Fridays until the end of the month.

Recycling Update

Due to the high holiday trash and recycle volume, Texas Pride Disposal will complete recycle collection in the Cypress Forest PUD on Saturday, 12/31/22.

Trash Collection Today

Due to high post-Christmas trash volume, Texas Pride Disposal will resume and finish trash collection in the District today.

Upcoming Freeze – Service Update – Friday, December 23rd

As our team’s safety is our number one priority, garbage services will be on a delayed start on Friday, December 23rd to avoid any issues with frozen roadways and hypothermia with our crew members.

At this time, we do not know what time routes will be starting, so we ask that you continue to place your garbage out by 6:00 a.m. on Friday.

In addition, recycle will be suspended on Friday to make sure our crews have adequate time and assistance to ensure all garbage is collected as scheduled.

We appreciate your understanding and respect for the well-being of our team, and wish everyone happy holidays!

Freezing Weather Notification

Winter weather and freezing temperatures are expected this week across Texas. The National Weather Service is forecasting widespread freezing temperatures on Friday and Saturday mornings. Residents should closely monitor media and the National Weather Service for updates to the forecast. We wanted to assure you that the teams at Inframark are monitoring and working diligently in preparation for a freezing weather event to safeguard your facilities. It is also important that you take action as well in protecting the “Four P’s”: People, pets, pipes and plants.

People

  • Keep warm, stay inside if possible.
  • If you need to go out, dress in layers and wear hats, gloves and an appropriate coat.
  • Avoid overexertion, as cold weather puts added strain on your body.

Pets

  • Bring pets inside, and move other animals or livestock to sheltered areas.
  • Keep adequate food and water available.

Pipes

  • Disconnect outdoor hoses, drain and store in protected area.
  • Wrap exposed faucets and pipes – including those outside the house or in unheated crawl spaces, attics, garages and other areas.

Plants

  • Bring potted plants inside or store in garage near interior wall to provide extra warmth and protection from wind.
  • For cold-sensitive outdoor plants, put down extra mulch and consider covering with a cloth fabric of some kind to shield the plants from wind and frost.

Additionally, if you have an irrigation system, turn off the water to the system at your backflow preventer and then drain the system so your irrigation pipes and sprinkler heads are not damaged.

The following sites can also be used as a source of information and to keep you updated:

Stay safe and stay warm.

Voluntary Water Use Restrictions Now in Place

Dear Customer,

Due to ongoing drought conditions, The North Harris County Regional Authority (NHCRWA) initiated Stage 1 water conservation measures. Because Cypress Forest PUD is located within the boundaries of the NHCRWA, we are required to initiate Stage 1 voluntary utility water conservation measures. The NHCRWA and Cypress Forest PUD may require mandatory water use restrictions if conditions worsen. Effective immediately, the following voluntary water use restrictions are in place:

Voluntary Water Use Restrictions Now in Place

  • District residents and other users of water within the District with even-numbered addresses will be asked to voluntarily limit use of water outdoors to Tuesdays and Saturdays.
  • District residents and other users of water within the District with odd-numbered addresses will be asked to voluntarily limit use of water outdoors to Wednesdays and Sundays.
  • Customers responsible for watering common areas such as esplanades and sports fields will be asked to voluntarily limit water use to Mondays and Fridays.
  • Users will be asked to voluntarily abstain from outdoor water use between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. and between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. (midnight)
  • Water Customers are requested to check for and repair all leaks, dripping faucets, and running toilets.

Thank you for your cooperation – Customers will be notified when these restrictions are no longer required or if conditions warrant additional conservation measures.

Demolition Scheduled at Former Raveneaux Country Club

On or about May 9, 2022, demolition will begin to remove all remaining structures on the former Raveneaux Country Club property now owned by the Harris County Flood Control District, including parking lots, tennis courts and swimming pool. The demolition will be completed using standard construction equipment, including excavators, skid steers, and tractor trailers. The demolition and removal of material will take the contractor approximately 35 to 40 days, weather permitting. For safety reasons, the Flood Control District asks that the public stay away from the demolition site.

In March 2022, teams from the Flood Control District also planted a tree and shrub buffer along Cypresswood Drive. Plantings included approximately 75 native pine, oak and other trees and more than 200 native evergreen shrubs, such as yaupon, wax myrtle and cherry laurel. The plantings will be maintained by the Flood Control District for the next two years.

Negotiations with Cypress Forest Public Utility District continue as to future plans for this property.
