Norfolk lot

Norfolk lot

Our neighbors, friends and many members of our civic association worked very hard to help protect this block with the minimum lot size/ building line ordinance through the city of Houston Planning Department and City Council. The block is protected and this particular lot is very much a win for protecting the residential character of our neighborhood. Thank you to each of you that worked to make this a reality. We appreciate your support and look forward to the home that will be built on this lot. Congratulations!

Solid Waste Trash Pickup to Change

The citizens asked…. and the city listened!   Effective November 1, 2012:

 

OUR HEAVY TRASH PICKUP DAY IS CHANGING!

It will be the 1st Wednesday of each month

 

These collections of tree waste and junk waste collection

will still occur in alternate months

(odd months for tree waste and even months for junk waste)

BUT ON THIS NEW HEAVY TRASH DAY

 

Please note that the collection schedule for regular garbage, yard waste trimmings and recycling WON’T change.

 

There are many benefits to these changes including better management of routes, budget savings in time and fuel as well as less confusion.  Any questions?  Check with Houston 3-1-1 by phone or on the site.
