Don’t forget there’s an election underway in Texas right now! While obviously not as prominent in the media as our last elections, the topics are still important nevertheless.
Early voting ends this Friday, October 30, and Election Day is Tuesday, November 3.
Information about early voting sites, day-of voting sites, and a comprehensive and non-partisan explanation of each issue on the ballot can be found at the League of Women Voters’ website HERE.

Austin Police have issued a warrant for a suspect in the neighborhood burglaries. No arrests have been made, but one individual has been identified while several others remain unnamed.
Thank you to the many neighbors who alerted us to this information. Please remain vigilant for any suspicious activities. If you learn about any arrests, please contact the board so that we may communicate to the neighborhood at large.
I thought this was interesting enough to post:
On Saturday, October 3, 2009, rainy weather resulted in muddy conditions on the field when lower layer soil amendments percolated above the turf and covered the sod during the Austin City Limits event.
Today the Parks and Recreation Department held the first post-event meeting with event organizers to discuss a more restrictive load out plan and preliminary remediation actions. Concurrently, at the department's request, the organizers will begin immediate remediation steps supervised by the department. Contingent upon weather conditions, it is anticipated that reconditioning work will take an additional two weeks. It is anticipated that the lawn will begin to be opened by the end of October. The department expects to complete its initial turf condition assessment and complete remediation requirements also by the end of October. Event organizers will be performing and funding all the required work under department supervision as required in the event planning in the previous months

National Night Out is an annual event designed to strengthen our communities by encouraging neighborhoods to engage in stronger relationships with each other and with their local law enforcement partners. The goal is to heighten crime-prevention awareness, build support and participation in local anti-crime programs, and most important, send a message that our neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
