Ponderosa Forest Homeowners Association Information (HOA)
Ponderosa Forest is a beautiful community, and we are glad you found a home here. Living within a deed-restricted neighborhood is excellent for maintaining property values. However, it can be confusing if a homeowner is unaware of the obligations to the community and other residents.
Read and comply with the community's governing documents and architectural guidelines. You should have received a document package well before closing on your home. If you didn't, check the association's website or ask the manager for copies. Be sure you understand what is included in them, particularly the rules about your home's exterior maintenance, architectural guidelines, and when you must pay association assessments.
Provide current contact information to the association manager. Ensure the manager knows how to reach you to notify you of association meetings and other important events. Many items are now sent electronically!
Maintain your property according to established standards. The community's appearance can add value to all the homes, including yours, so keeping landscaping neatly groomed and your home's exterior well-maintained is essential.
Treat association leaders honestly and respectfully. Board members are homeowners like you who have volunteered to give their time and energy freely to govern the community. While you should share your concerns about the community with them, do so in a constructive, informative, and helpful way.
Attend board meetings and vote in community elections. Board meetings are open to all who wish to sit and keep up with issues under discussion. The association is a democracy; your voice and vote can affect essential matters. The East and West sides hold officer elections at their meetings in September.
Pay association assessments and other obligations on time. Regular assessments pay for common-area maintenance, amenities, and other shared expenses. If you do not pay on time, the burden of paying your portion of the association's bills, like water, electricity, security patrol, and common area landscaping, falls on your neighbors. Contact the community manager to discuss alternative payment arrangements if you have problems. Annual Assessment statements are sent out every year in November for the coming year. Payments due January 1 are considered delinquent after January 31.
Ensure tenants, visiting relatives, and friends adhere to the rules and regulations. If you are leasing your home, you're liable for maintaining the home's condition and for the behavior of those living there. Make sure to familiarize tenants with the community's rules.
Thank you,

Canyon Creek Park - Resident Owned and Maintained
Spring Festival and Car Show is coming...stay tuned!

17907 Canyon Creek Rd, 77090
Canyon Creek Park is a testament to the power of community spirit and collaboration. Nestled in the heart of Ponderosa, this park stands as a beacon of local pride, where the East-Side HOA and its dedicated residents have joined forces to create a serene oasis for families to gather, children to play, and nature to flourish.
As we look forward to the enhancements planned for the park, including new signage and sanitation stations, it's vital to remember each person's role in preserving the beauty and cleanliness of this shared space. By respecting the guidelines, such as proper trash disposal and keeping dogs on leashes, everyone contributes to the park's longevity and ensures it remains a delightful haven for future generations.
Let's cherish and protect our Canyon Creek Park, a place where nature and community come together, and memories are made every day.

What is a Contract Constable?- by Theresa Harris, 2025.
The Contract Deputy Program works under the philosophy of community-oriented policing, where the same deputies work the area and become familiar with the residents. The Deputies are aware of residents' patterns and situations that are out of the ordinary so that they can respond accordingly.
The Contract Deputy Program is open to subdivisions, groups of subdivisions, or municipal districts that contract with the agency to provide one or more deputies for patrol assignments in a particular area, thereby providing law enforcement services.
The Contract Deputy Program offers high visibility, which helps reduce crime in the area. The Contract Deputy Program is recognized for its prompt response to calls for service, as deputies are assigned to a specific location.
The Contract Deputy Program is a way for neighborhoods and subdivisions that need additional patrol services to supplement existing law enforcement services. Besides regular patrol duties and traffic enforcement, the Contract Deputy Program provides vacation and exceptional watches for residents who may be out of town or have a particular problem that needs to be addressed. These watches are sent to the deputies so they are aware that the residents are not home and can make periodic checks on residences while homeowners are away. Click here to sign up:
The contract deputy works in conjunction with a security coordinator/director, who is usually a board member of the subdivision and acts as a liaison between the County and the contract. The security coordinator and the Deputy work together to share information, helping to determine the needs of the contract. https://www.sbbmanagement.com/
Harris County oversees the Contract Deputy Program. Contracts are based on coverage options of 70%, 80%, or 100% coverage, with the program cost split between Harris County and the contracting entity. For example, if a contractor chooses a 70/30 contract, the contractor will pay 70%, while Harris County will pick up the remaining 30% balance. The Deputy will spend 70% of their daily time assigned to the contract, with the remainder allocated as needed for operations and routing duties, such as preparing reports and completing paperwork.
Contract deputies also work to bring National Night Out to their respective neighborhoods or utility districts.

The Flood Control District, Keeping Cypress Creek Waterway Clean- No Debris
The Harris County Flood Control District is a special-purpose district created by the Texas Legislature in 1937 and governed by the Harris County Commissioners Court. It was built in response to devastating floods that struck the region in 1929 and 1935.
The Flood Control District's jurisdictional boundaries are set to coincide with Harris County, a community of more than 4.7 million people (2020 census) that includes the City of Houston. The other boundaries in which we operate – those provided by nature – are the 23 primary watersheds within Harris County's 1,777 square miles. Each watershed has its own unique set of flooding problems. Each watershed presents unique challenges. Read more about the watersheds and Cypress Creek here, Harris County's Watersheds

Cats and Dogs of Ponderosa TEXAS: The Safe Outdoor Dogs Act
On October 25, 2021, after the most contentious Texas legislative session in memory, the Safe Outdoor Dogs Act was signed into law. THLN never wavered during the six-year quest to pass this legislation, even when it was targeted by an extremist lawmaker and unexpectedly vetoed.
Texas dogs and their communities deserve a common-sense, balanced policy governing the restraint of dogs outdoors. The Safe Outdoor Dogs Act, which went into effect January 18, 2022, achieves that by:
- Defining adequate shelter to protect dogs from extreme temperatures, inclement weather, and standing water. Previously, there was no definition for shelter; thus, tethered dogs routinely perished from exposure to the elements.
- Requiring access to drinkable water. Before the Safe Outdoor Dogs Act, state law did not include this vital requirement.
- Requiring safe restraints. The Safe Outdoor Dogs Act strikes the use of chains. Other means of restraint, such as cable tie-outs, may be used so long as they are correctly attached to a collar or harness designed to restrain a dog.
Arguably, the most significant change brought about by the Safe Outdoor Dogs Act is the removal of the 24-hour warning period, which allowed bad actors to flout the law. Officers can now take immediate action to rescue tethered dogs in distress.
