 WELCOME TO PRECINCT 3!Last October, Harris County Commissioners Court voted 3-2 on a new map for Commissioner Precinct boundaries that impacts over 2.3 million residents. Although the final transition is set to be complete by March 31, 2022, it’s likely that you are now in a new jurisdiction. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU County Commissioners are responsible for maintaining roads, bridges, parks, and community centers that do not fall within the jurisdictions of cities, the state, or privately-owned entities. If you’ve been reporting potholes, requesting ditch maintenance, or submitting other requests to a Commissioner, you’ll want to double-check who represents you now.

Click here to find out who your County Commissioner is.  ABOUT PRECINCT 3  Commissioner Precinct 3 is led by Tom Ramsey. Under the new map, Precinct 3 now spans as far west as Cypress – as far north as Tomball – and as far east as Crosby. It encompasses approximately 47% of all unincorporated Harris County, including over 6,300 lane miles of roadway, 66 parks, and 10 Community and Nature Centers. Precinct 3 is home to nearly a dozen community centers, 15 school districts, about 1,000 neighborhoods, and the nation’s longest urban-forested corridor – the Spring Creek Greenway. From the lively city lights in the Villages to the country prairie skies in Huffman, Precinct 3 is the place to live, play, and worship! ABOUT THE COMMISSIONER Commissioner Ramsey listens to you, and ensures you’re representedat every Commissioners Court .  Commissioner Tom Ramsey was elected to serve as County Commissioner for Harris County Precinct 3 in November of 2020. A native of Crockett, Texas, he holds more than 40 years of experience as a Professional Engineer and has served more than 50 Texas cities and 20 counties. Ramsey brings forth proven solutions and knows what works and what doesn’t. He has a long track record of improving the safety, infrastructure, livability, and financial health of the communities he serves. Ramsey served as the Mayor of Spring Valley Village from 2012-2020 – reducing the city’s tax rate by 21% and investing more than $38 million in infrastructure. He has served on the Harris County Storm Water Task Force and the Imelda Assistance Fund Board. As County Commissioner, Ramsey continues to prioritize safer neighborhoods, lowering taxes, and improving infrastructure. *He launched a Crime Task Force earlier this year, which is comprised of over a dozen law enforcement agencies from County and City jurisdictions, to combat the rising crime rate. *In addition to his strong advocacy for law enforcement, Commissioner Ramsey works closely with local, state, and federal partners to find innovative solutions for flood risk reduction – the most notable being “The Big Drain,” a proven concept of large underground tunnels that would move water to the drainage outfalls. *Additionally, Ramsey led in securing the most significant tax revenue decrease supported by all 5 Commissioners Court members. Ramsey’s strong faith drives his work at Second Baptist Houston, where he is a deacon and serves on the board of Loving Kids, a local initiative launched to help underserved Houston children. He’s a longtime resident of Harris County of more than over 30 years, and a graduate of Texas A & M University with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. He and his wife, Marsha, have three children and seven grandchildren.  ADDITIONAL ROLES OF ACOUNTY COMMISSIONER Harris County is led by five Commissioners Court members – four Commissioners and one County Judge. They determine tax rates and are responsible for allocating approximately $6 billion worth of funding for pertinent services. These services include the criminal justice system, infrastructure, flood control, hospital district, public health, elections, and much more. Commissioner offices also assist local law enforcement agencies during disasters, such as conducting high-water rescues during flood events, water distributions during and after storms, and roadway clearing during wind events.

V O T E
As many of you know, a 3-2 majority on Commissioners Court recently passed a surprise redistricting plan based on a map released to the public only a few hours before its approval. That plan, which Precinct 3 Commissioner Tom S. Ramsey and I opposed, disrupts the lives of more than half our residents by changing the precincts of more than 2.3 million residents – mostly those of you in northern and western Harris County.
The decision prompted several lawsuits seeking to overturn the plan in favor of a less intrusive one that more closely mirrors our previous precinct lines. Although these lawsuits are still pending, Commissioner Ramsey and I now must begin the monumental task of moving on from decades-long partnerships to forge new ones in our new precincts. Despite the numerous challenges ahead, we will work together closely to make this transition as smooth as possible for all our constituents.
As my time as your commissioner concludes, I want to thank all of you who entrusted me with serving this wonderful precinct. With your support, we accomplished extraordinary things over the past decade. We built an unrivaled parks system with a 17-mile urban greenway, provided hundreds of new events and activities, and maintained the county’s largest road and bridge system – all with no extra funding.
Although I no longer represent your area, I trust Precinct 3 Commissioner Tom S. Ramsey to provide the same exceptional service that you received from Precinct 4. I wish you all the best, and I look forward to watching the old and the new Precinct 4 continue to grow and prosper.
Thank you again.
Sincerely,
R. Jack Cagle
It was recently brought to our attention that this website did not have the current Architectural Guidelines posted. We have corrected that error. Goodwin & Co, our management company, has posted the current guidelines on their site as well. The guidelines are located under the COMMUNITY INFORMATION tab, Section 6. COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION DOCUMENTS, 6d. Architectural Guidlines LHCA. Double Click or tap the page to open the guidelines. The guidelines are also attached below. Also attached is the letter from the board at the time the current Architectural Guidelines were issued.
Please familiarize yourself with this document as well as other community documents. The Architectural Guidelines cover fences between yards, construction of swimming pools, spa or jacuzzi, outbuildings, patio covers, decks, landscaping, exterior lighting, exterior paint, roofs, additions, driveways, neighbor’s zero wall, yard decorations, etc. And additional subjects are addressed in the covenants, 6c Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.
If you are planning on any updates, additions or changes, please review the documents or feel free to contact Vickie Cain, Goodwin & Company, with our management company to see if your project requires Architectural Review. Remember the Architectural Review Committee is made up of volunteers from our neighborhood. And like the Board of Directors, their function is to act for all residents, preserve property values and to keep The Enclave a community of which we can be proud.
The new HOA Board wants to express a special “Thank You” to Dick Ireland, former President and Rosetta Korry, former Director. Their years of service on the Board have been immeasurable and the hours spent completing their duties, incomprehensible. We have been very fortunate to have such leaders serving our community, volunteering their time to maintain and improve our neighborhood. Fortunately, these people remain in our community and have made themselves available to us, giving us guidance when and where we need it. When you see these people out and about be sure to express a “thank you” to them as this community would not be as wonderful as it is without them.
Again, THANK YOU Dick & Rosetta!
