Architectural Review Reminder
With nice weather just around the corner, the Lake Houston Community Association Board of Directors felt it timely to address the community’s architectural review requirements. If you are planning a project, you are to complete and submit an Architectural Modification Application for review by a member of our Architectural Review Committee.
A few project examples are: roof, backyard deck, patio, patio cover, tree removal anywhere on your lot, fence and gate replacement or gate addition, painting of garage door, house trim, shutters, landscape and landscape lighting. Our Architectural Review Committee reviews updates, revisions and updates to the front yard, backyard, exterior of the home, etc. and provides a timely response.
Complete the Architectural Modification Application form prior to any work being done. The form is located here, located on the website: theenclavehoa.net and available through Goodwin & Co, our HOA management company. To reach Goodwin & Co, contact Vickie at (281) 852-1155.

March Garden Tips
From Kingwood Garden Center March Newsletter
- Give your lawn its first fertilization of the year. Most lawns haven’t been fed for months so we recommend a quick release fertilizer like NitroPhos Imperial or MicroLife Hybrid.
- Spray camellias with Neem Oil to combat tea scale. Neem Oil spray can be used on any of your plants to kill over-wintering insect eggs. Do not use if temperatures are over 90º F.
- Fertilize currently non-blooming trees and shrubs with MicroLife 6-2-4 or NitroPhos Tree & Shrub Fertilizer.
- Feed established roses with BioAdvance Rose Food which is a 3-in-1 product offering fertilizer, systemic insecticide and fungicide. Do not feed newly planted roses until after the first blooms.
- Prune and trim azaleas after flowering and fertilize with MicroLife or Nitro-Phos Azalea Food.
- Divide perennials and daylilies.
- Feed crape myrtles with BioAdvanced All-In-One Food with systemic insecticide and fungicide. A monthly feeding will keep off the insects, which in turn will prevent black sooty mold on the leaves.
- Plant vegetable starter plants, tomatoes, peppers, squash, eggplant, and cucumbers. Use Espoma Garden-Tone for bigger abundant harvests.
- Finish any rose or dormant plant pruning. Remove any freeze damage.
- When transplanting or planting a new tree or shrub, use Ferti-Lome Root Stimulator to get the plant off to a fast start.
- Late March, apply a lawn fungicide such as MicroLife Brown Patch 5-1-3 to prevent brown patch or take-all patch. Lawn fungi flare up when the nights are cool and the days are warm.
- Prune hibiscus and feed with Color Star Hibiscus Food to encourage new growth and blooms.. Hibiscus do not like a fertilizer with a high middle number. Rather they like a fertilizer with lots of potassium, the last number.
- Plant perennials such as lantana, verbena, shasta daisies, salvia, plumbago, lobelia cardinalis, columbine, coreopsis, euryops, foxglove, lamb’s ear, persian shield, gaillardia, pentas, sedum, shrimp plant, wedelia, and yarrow.
Welcome to Precinct 3
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. USEFUL PRECINCT 3 NUMBERS To Request Service: 713-274-3100 Parks & Centers: 281-496-2177 Senior Bus Program: 832-927-6820 Main Office: 713-274-3000 FOLLOW US Be sure to follow us on social media for all the latest on news, events, and happenings in Precinct 3! 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!

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.

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.
