West U experienced the worst flooding
on June 91h since 1983 when Hurricane
Alicia came through the Houston area.
Tropical Storm Allison dumped as much
as 35 inches of rain on the Harris County
area and caused many local bayous to
overflow their banks. With over 11 inches
of rain in a 24-hour period, local flooding
in West U was fairly severe.
According to Fire Chief Terry
Stevenson, the City's emergency man-
agement coordinator, some 245 homes
and seven businesses sustained some
damage. Several city facilities suffered
flood damage, including the Municipal
Building, the Police Station, and the Com-
munity Building.
"The City's emergency response ef-
fort generally ran well," said Stevenson.
"Our 9-1-1 dispatch center was kept
extremely busy and we were able to
meet most service demands during this
period."
Patrick Walters the Water Utilities
Superintendent reported that the integ-
rity of the drinking water system was
not breached at any point. The City's
drinking water system was isolated from
the City of Houston's water supply line
early Saturday as a precaution in the
event their water system became con-
taminated. The City was supplied with
water from our wells. The sanitary)
sewer system did experience some mi-
nor problems from the high water. The
sewer lift station located at University
and Edloe was out of service for sev-
eral hours Saturday after the pump vault
was flooded with water. Water Utility
Crews worked several hours to restore
service to the station. A bypass pump
was placed at the lift station but was
not used as the maintenance crews had
the station back on line prior to the by-
pass being completed.
It will be several weeks before the
Municipal Building is in full operation as
damage to the carpeting in the Finance
Department has required that section of
the building to be vacated. Staff is tem-
porarily set-up in the Conference Room
aril the Public Works Building.

crowded West U's population hit 14,211 accord-
ing to Census 2000, an increase of al-
most 10 percent from the 1990 popula-
tion total of 12,920, but a far cry from
its peak population of 17,054 in 1950.
Females hold a slight edge with 51.2
percent of the population compared to
48.8 percent male. Over 92 percent of
the residents are white, with 4.7 per-
cent of the population classified as
Asian. The senior population continues
to decline as those 65 years of age and
older represent just 7.6 percent of the
population - a decrease from 12.3 per-
cent in 1990. The average household
size is 2.69 persons and the average
family size in West U is 3.11 persons.

In 1972, I was new to West U. Among
the first people I became acquainted with
were Warner and Sharron Strang who,
along with some other folks, were pro-
posing a recycling program to the city.
At the time recycling was quite a novel
concept. I was very pleased to be part
of their effort to encourage residents to
participate in the program. That was my
introduction to making a difference in the
neighborhood, and the rest is history.
In August, your city council will be
making appointments to the city's boards
and commissions, and I would like to in-
vite any of you, who are willing to spend
a few hours of your time each month, to
benefit your community to apply. By vol-
unteering, you have the opportunity to
learn firsthand how the city operates and
be a part of our efforts to be responsive
by Councilman Marilyn Griffin
Over the last few weeks, we have
been reading letters to the editors of our
local papers regarding opinions of sev-
eral editorialists. I haven't read much,
however, about the dedication and tire-
less attitude of the journalists that cover
our city of West University Place. Dur-
ing the election, I did the circuit of most
of our boards and was amazed to find
several reporters in attendance at what
seemed like all occasions. I decided to
turn the tables on a few and interview
them for a change.
The Houston Chronicle's reporter
Debra Lake has consistently been at
every Council Meeting and stays til the
bitter end. Debra likes covering West U
not only because she gets to know indi-
viduals here, but also because of the
"residents, even through it's a small per-
centage that get involved in what's hap-
pening." She also noted that West U is
more progressive in areas such as recy-
By: Mayor Linda Lewis
to citizen desires. No special skills are
required, just a willingness to serve.
What opportunities exist? There are
six boards and commissions to which the
council will appoint members. Each is
described in the paragraphs below.
Zoning and Planning Commission
is seven members who meet to review
zoning and planning issues and to make
recommendations to council regarding
same. They are charged with ordinance
revisions and with hearing citizen re-
sponses to zoning revisions.
Zoning Board of Adjustment is five
members plus four alternates who act
as a judiciary body and hear resident/
commercial requests for variances per-
taining to zoning restrictions. Input from
ZBA may be helpful to ZPC as zoning
revisions are considered.
where the only controversy is keeping
chickens in the yard, but West U's neigh-
borhood activism results in a more col-
orful and diverse citizenry and more
controversial stories. I bet she would be
surprised to learn that many a chicken
has been raised in our city even today!
Another journalist who attends many
hours of city meetings is Village News
reporter, Aileen Dale, who says, "It's
great to see city government in action
where ideas from residents result in
action one way or another from city of-
ficials." She enjoys making sure the
news is reported accurately and gets out
to all the citizens. By the way, Debra
and Aileen get paid by the story not by
the hour.
West U Examiner's own George
Boehme believes "that all sides of ev-
ery issue ...are important and neces-
sary...for efficient decision making."
When George was not in attendance at
city meetings you might find Beverly
Building and Standards Commission
is also a five member, four alternate
body that hears appeals for variances to
the city's building process and works
with the chief building official to affect
changes to the building code.
Parks and Recreation Board consists
of nine members who focus on the city's
parks and recreation needs. This board
has recently worked with a designer to
complete a Master Plan for all West U
parks. In the next two years, members
will be involved primarily with Colonial
Park improvements and with improving
the city's recreational programs.
Recycling and Solid Waste Reduc-
tion Board is nine members who have
quality of life and environmental issues
as their focus. They recommend new
programs and assist with special projects
Iike the spring and fat! heavy trash days.
Members also volunteer one Saturday
each month to make improvements to
the recycling center on Dinkins.
Senior Services Board is 15 members
who study the needs of senior citizens
and recommend programs to accommo-
date them. This board prepares a quar-
terly newsletter for seniors and is cur-
rently implementing a Good Neighbor
Program.
These are the permanent boards to
which volunteers are appointed for a two
year term beginning September 1. Addi-
tionally, from time to time, council may
choose to appoint a special task force to
review issues such as traffic and neigh-
borhood safety. Typically, these are
shorter term appointments, and you are
invited to express your interest in these
opportunities as well as to apply for the
six boards described above.
Volunteering is an effective means for
connecting to your city and positively
impacting the place you have chosen to
call home. If you have questions, please
do not hesitate to contact me or go by
City Hall and pick up an application from
;ling. Debra lives in a neighborhood (Hord work- cont. on n.6) ; City Secretary Kaylynn Holloway.

After several hundred man-hours,
$45,000.00 in materials and equipment
and a lot of hard work and ingenu'
staff cleared the cement like ma
terial from the sanitary, sewer
line under Rutgers Street. This
was a large effort and we appre
date that you tolerated the mlisan
created in correcting the problem. Spe-
cial thanks to the citizens that brought
out sodas and tea during the hot hours
spent working on the problem.
We have made temporary repairs to
the new concrete street panels that were
cut to excavate down to the sewer line.
These temporary panels are necessary.
as we cannot get contractors scheduled
to make permanent repairs in a timely
® a e - i
fashion at a reasonable cost. We antici-
pate that permanent repairs will be
mpleted in October or November
of this year. At that time we will
have the paving removed from
construction joint to construc-
tion joint and we will have new
icrete paving poured.
The new concrete paving will bring
the total project cost to approximately
$60,000.00. While it is much less than
the first estimate of $154,000.00, it is still
a large sum of money to spend on a line
that will be abandoned in approximately
four years. Please report any suspicious
activity around any sewer manholes so
we can prevent this from happening
again.

Employee in
the ZZ0.3lootliuht
This month's Employee in the Spot-
light shines on Todd Parker, a 28 year
old Firefighter and Paramedic. Before
joining the West U team as a full-time
employee seven years ago, Todd was
an on-call fireman with the City for two
years. Throughout his career with the
City, Todd demonstrated an attraction
to emergency medicine that is apparent
in the many classes and conferences
he attends. Todd has enrolled in the Uni-
versity of Texas Houston to complete
his Bachelor of Science and Nursing de-
gree beginning this August. The pro-
gram, which lasts 20 months, is a key
step to becoming a CRNA (nurse anes-
thetist).
This summer will prove to be an ex-
citing summer for Todd. On August 7"',
Todd and Laura Grubb will be married
on the beach at Sunset in Tamorindo,
Costa Rica. Laura (who is a lieutenant
in the Navy) is completing her intern
year in pediatrics at the Navy hospital
Balboa in San Diego. Todd spends one
week a month in California where he
and Laura surf, bike and walk around
"sunset cliffs."
According to Fire Chief Terry
Stevenson, "Todd is a young and ener-
getic employee, who is a great asset to
the department. I support his quest for
education and think it will be beneficial
to the department and West U citizens."
Ordinance spotlight.. .
times require hours
As the weather warms and the days grow longer, residents are spending more
time outdoors. Outdoor activities are enjoyable and sometimes, well, a bit noisy.
Residential quiet hours are the hours when many people are sleeping or engaged
in quiet activities at home - Monday through Friday before 7:OOAM or after 8:00PM,
Saturday before 8:OOAM or after 8:00Pm, and Sunday before 12:00 NOON or after
8:00 PM. Making noise during these hours, which disturbs the peace and quiet of
those around you, is prohibited. The following would be in violation of the City's
noise ordinance, particularly during quiet hours:
• Honking a horn when not moving, unless signaling danger.
• Loud music from a radio, disc player, tape player or any musical instrument.
• Noisy automobile, motorcycle, or other vehicle so out of repair, so loaded or
operated that it creates loud or unnecessary racket.
• Loud noise resulting from construction or demolition unless permitted by the
Building Official.
• Excessive noise resulting from the loading or unloading of any vehicle or the
opening or destruction of bales, boxes, crates or containers.
• The sound made by loudspeakers or amplifiers on trucks or other vehicles.
• The sound made by leaf blowers, lawnmowers or other lawn maintenance equip-
ment if the equipment is gas powered and operated within 200 feet of a residence.
• The barking of a dog.
Just because it isn't listed, doesn't mean it's not covered z
in the ordinance. As a good neighbor, please do your part _
and think twice before revving up that Harley after mid-
night. .t .

Phase I paving work on Edloe Street is now underway. Phase I extends from about Goode
Street south to University Boulevard. Work in this area should continue for the next 30
days.
The Edloe Street project is scheduled for completion before West U Elementary School is
back in session on August 15. In addition to the school, the schedule is also designed to
ensure that Edloe Street businesses are effected the least amount of time. In order to help
contractors adhere to the deadline, the City implemented a small exception to the above
"quiet hour" rules. During the street improvement project on Edloe from Rice to University,
the contractor is allowed to work from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM seven days a week.

Each generation is luckier than the one
before when it comes to toys. Young
people now have some really neat toys.
One of the best that I have seen lately
is the motorized scooter, sometimes
called Go-Peds. I wouldn't mind having
one of them myself. Since these items
are enjoying a growing popularity, I
have received a number of questions
recently about the legality of their use.
Several months ago, the City passed
an ordinance requiring young people to
wear a helmet when riding a bicycle.
This ordinance was specific to bicycles
and, therefore, does not apply to scoot-
ers. However, given the unstable na-
ture of scooters and the ease with
which one can fall off one, I would
strongly encourage scooter riders, hu-
rnan or motor powered, to wear a hel-
met. It is very inexpensive insurance.
By statute, a scooter that is powered
by a motor, either electric or gasoline,
is defined as a "motor vehicle". It is a
violation of the law to operate a motor
vehicle on a public sidewalk, so a
scooter with a motor cannot be ridden
on a sidewalk. Similarly, a motor ve-
hicle operated on the street is going to
have to meet al l of the requirements of
a car or motorcycle - headlights, tail-
lights, brake lights, drivers license for
the operator, etc. Obviously, these scoot-
ers do not have this equipment.
I know that it isn't what many young
people want to hear, but the motorized
scooters cannot be legally operated on
either public streets or sidewalks. They
can be legally operated on private prop-
erty with the consent of the property
owner.
Thanks, and be safe!

has many impacts, including
increased disposal costs, injuries to trash

U residents have two options for HHW
disposal. The first is the City of Houston
facility on Westpark between Chimney
Rock and Fountain View. There is no
cost at this facility, which accepts latex

from the Houston-Galveston Area
Counci I and the Texas Natural Resource
Conservation Commission, West U has
purchased a limited number of vouch-
ers at $75 each, which allow residents
the use of this service. The facility ac-
cepts a broader spectrum of HHW, in-
cluding oil-based paints, thinners, aero-
sol cans, pesticides and some chemicals.

We have an excellent water
supply and City staff work long
hours to insure that a sufficient
supply is constantly available.
The Water Utilities Division of
Public Works attempts to repair all ma-
jor leaks within 24 hours of them being
reported and all leaks within one week.
We believe that water conservation
must start with the water supplier. That
is why we have set these high standards.
To help us achieve our goals it is neces-
sary for citizens to contact the Public
Works Department any time water is
seen in unusual locations. Please remem-
ber that we have personnel on-cal 124/7
including holidays.
Water Utilities has several pamphlets

rrn water management
( !~3 In an effort to meet new strin-
g a gent Federal Environmental
Protection Agency regulations,
the City is developing a Storm Water
Management Plan to control pollutants
that may be carried from our city by
storm water runoff.
Storm water from a rain event flows
across yards, streets and parking areas
to the storm water drainage system. This
storm water runoff flows through under-
ground piping and the Poor Farm Ditch
to Braes Bayou. After flowing through
Braes Bayou the runoff enters the Hous-
ton Ship Channel. Pollutants, including
litter, animal waste, herbicides, pesticides
and motor oil can be picked up and car-
ried with runoff water. All of these pol-
lutants eventually make their way to
Galveston Bay where they may damage
habitats for many species of wildlife.
The City has created a Storm Water
Management Program Team that will
prepare draft plans and present these at
public meetings later this year. Public
participation will be a critical element in
development and implementation of this
program. The meetings will be designed
to provide information on what the City
must do to meet regulations, information
about what other cities are doing, and
receive input from citizens wishing to par-
ticipate in program development.
To contact West U Water Utilities, call
the Public Works office at 713.662.5839
or pwalters@westu.org. For after-
hours emergencies call 713.662.5850.

Edwin Henry who said he also enjoys
covering West U because "people here
are fiercely independent, dynamic, some-
times confrontational, but for the most
part very passionate and thoughtful. All
of these components make a fertile
ground for great reporting." I tend to
agree with Mr. Henry and want to thank
the journalists for their work and hope
that they continue to utilize all of their
energy and resources in order to keep
all of us well informed of the happen-
ings in West U. I also want to thank
West U residents for electing me to City
Council. I will do my best to get infor-
