_t What do Jane
Austen and
Spelman have in
common? The an-
swer to the ques-
tion is quite simple.
The name of the re-
nowned author and
the prestigious university will both honor
two new streets of West U.
In February, The Name's the Game
challenged the creative minds of West
U residents to a street naming contest.
Two new streets in the College Court
subdivision needed names in keeping
with West U tradition - naming streets
for colleges, universities, authors, and
poets.
Forty-five entries reached City Hall
for consideration. After much delibera-
tion by the City Council, the vote was
cast and not.one but two winners were
named - Mary Callaghan and Carl
Hock. Ms. Callaghan suggested Jane
Austen in recognition of female authors,
while Mr. Hock hoped to diversify the
traditional names of universities and col-
leges with his suggestion of Spelman
College.
The City recognized the winners of
the contest during the April 26th Coun-
cil meeting. Each winner received a Cer-
tificate of Appreciation and gift certifi-
cate to Barnes and Noble Booksellers.
If anyone asks where they might find
Jane Austen or Spelman, you can tell
them they are located in the new devel-
opment under construction at Bissonnett
and Weslayan.
Congratulations Mary Callaghan and
Carl Hock and thanks to all of those that
submitted entries!

What's your emer-
gency?
F F=~'. This response is pro-
vided hundreds of times
a week by the West U
Police Department Dispatch Center.
But the dispatchers have other re-
sponsibilities as well. In addition to an-
swering the emergency calls, they
handle non-emergencies, operate a two-
way radio system to maintain commu-
nications with 12 or more officers as
well as fire and emergency personnel,
monitor remote camera systems, moni-
tor resident alarms, and assist people
who come into the police station.
When a call is received, the dispatcher
must prioritize and classify the call within
seconds.
The American Heritage Dictionary
defines emergency as an unexpected
situation or sudden occurrence of a
serious and urgent nature that de-
mands immediate action.
Examples of 9.1.1 emergencies in-
clude in-progress crimes, assaults, ma-
jor vehicle accidents, medical emergen-
cies, house fire (or visible smoke), and
downed electrical lines.
Our dispatchers will tell you that his/
her priority needs to be for our officers'
safety on the street. However, when
9.1.1 rings, this priority changes. The
focus shifts to assisting the person on
the phone. When it is an emergency,
we are pleased to provide our assistance
and respond to the call.
When calls come into the 9.1.1. sys-
tem and are not of an emergency na-
ture (such as loose animals, solicitors,
trash complaints, or requesting a phone
number), we may not be able to respond
to real emergencies in a timely way.
Our emergency dispatchers are our
front line team. Please help them help
you. One day you may need to call 9. 1.1
for an emergency. Let's be sure that
the dispatcher is not responding to a
9.1.1 call asking the latest weather re-
port.

You can tell whether a plastic bottle
or jar can be recycled by looking at the
bottom. If you see a triangle-shaped
recycling symbol and a number 1 or 2,
please recycle the container. If you see
another number or no number at all, put
it with the regular trash.
V Recycling Tip #2
Remember to put yard waste in pa-
per bags. The city cannot pick up or
dispose of grass or tree trimmings in
plastic bags.

the academic and physical needs of the
school and the community.
The school grounds lie at the center
of our community and for decades have

THE SPOTLIGHT
This month's Employee in the Spot-
light is Iris Conway. Before joining the
West U ranks in October of 1997, Iris
was employed by Med Center Bank of
Houston in customer service for ten
years and as an Administrative Assis-
tant for Navigation Bank of Houston for
two years.
Iris works as a Secretary in the Build-
ing Division of the Department of Pub-
lic Works, which requires a basic work-
ing knowledge of ordinances and regu-
lations relating to code enforcement,
building and zoning. In the past few
weeks, employee changes within the
Building Division, resulted in the trans-
fer of additional work to Iris. Although,
extremely busy, Iris remains courteous
and helpful. We appreciate her hard
work and applaud her for her efforts.
When asked what she likes most about
her job, Iris states, "I love to cater to
the residents and builders, and try to
please them by expediting their re-
quests."
A native of Wright City, Oklahoma, Iris
moved to Houston in 1983. Iris and her
husband Cary live in Fort Bend County
with their daughters, Marisa and
Deirdre. Her hobbies include collect-
ing "Beanie Babies", spectator sports
and listening to Jazz and Blues music.
"Every once in a while a department
will require an employee that makes it
function in a way that is appreciated by
its employees and citizens alike. Iris is
one of those rare employees. We re-
ally appreciate her contribution and look
forward to her continued work with the
City," says Ed Menville, Director of Pub-
lic Works.

The Harris County Central
Appraisal District (HCAD) has begun mailing 1999 real prop
erty valuations notices to prop-
erty owners. According to Jim
Robinson, the district's chief
appraiser, the notices reflect last year's
strong real estate market conditions.
While data is not yet available for West
U alone, values of all single-family resi-
dential property located in Harris
County, including new construction, rose
about 8.6% from January 1, 1998 lev-
els. Of over 780,000 single-family homes
in Harris County, 512,378 increased in
value, while only 8,792 experienced
value declines.
Under Texas law, the appraisal district
is required to appraise all taxable prop-
erty for local property tax purposes.
Except for certain unusual circum-
stances, the district must appraise prop-
erty at its estimated market value. This
means that a strong real estate market
results in increased appraisals.
Increased values don't necessarily
equate to increased taxes. After the
various taxing entities, including the
county, the city, and the school district
receive final appraisals from HCAD in
August, they set rates that will generate
the amount of tax money needed to pay
for local government services. The no-
tices sent by HCAD show the tax that

While the West U Com-
munity Center was under
construction in 1941, the
Mayor and City Commis-
sioners discussed setting up
a branch of the Harris County Library
in the building. The county agreed to
furnish books and the City of West U
agreed to furnish space in the new build-
ing along with the necessary furniture.
The "space" was a corner of the Cen-
ter and the "furniture" was a rickety
card table, chair and bookcase. Thelma
Sanders, the first librarian, was hired in
1942. It was a job she would continue
until her retirement in 1972.
During the war, the library moved from

I really enjoy speaking with residents
who give me ideas on what to include
in the Chief s Corner Column. This
month I had two suggestions.
First, the WUPD has State Certified
Home Security Inspectors on staff that
will come out to your home and con-
duct a security survey. This free ser-
vice will give you information on how
to better secure your home at a very
nominal cost. If you meet certain re-
quirements, such as dead bolts and
secondary locks on windows (that can
be achieved by putting pins in your
windows), you are eligible for a reduc-
tion in your homeowners insurance. A
phonecall may save you five percent
on your homeowners insurance. The
second issue concerns all of you who
walk or bicycle for exercise. Have
you thought to carry some form of iden-
tification & medical information with
you? We almost always have it when
we are in the car. What would hap-
pen if an accident occurred and you
got hurt, suffered from heat stroke, or
had a heart attack. The City's EMS
personnel may not be able to contact
family members or have pertinent in-
formation on your health condition. A
laminated card with medical informa-
tion or an ID can save your life and
allow us to get in contact with your
family if something happened to you.
Take a moment. to be prepared.
