Board approves extra security coverage, donations encouraged

9/23/2017

 
Dear Neighbors,

Your Linkwood Civic Club Board recently held an emergency meeting to discuss security patrol in Linkwood.  Neighborhood watch is proven to be one of the best forms of crime prevention, and Linkwood has always been diligent in this form of home protection. 120 of the 146 homes in Linkwood flooded, and most will be unoccupied for some time.
 
Due to this sudden void of our neighborhood watch, the board voted to increase the number of Seal patrol hours by 50%, an additional 20 hours per week. This increase will apply to Linkwood alone. Night and weekend hours will be added, in addition to our current shared weekday patrol with Woodside and Westridge. The cost for this patrol increase is approximately $10,000 for the remainder of the year. This additional cost was not included in our 2017 Linkwood Civic Club budget. The $10,000 will be taken from the civic club reserve account. The board, with members representing both flooded and non-flooded homes, was unanimous in its decision. 

The Civic Club reserve funds were established for events such as legal and emergency needs. If you are able, the Civic Club encourages each household to assist in replenishing the $10,0000 we will use in reserve funds for this emergency need. You may contribute any amount by the following means:

By Check:
Payable to LINKWOOD CIVIC CLUB
"Security" in memo line
c/o Jenna Arnold
3811 Linkwood Drive
Houston, TX 77025
 
By Debit Card:
If you would like to donate towards security costs via debit card, visit https://cash.me/$linkwoodcivicclub and enter the amount that will be deposited directly to the Linkwood Civic Club's account.
 
By Credit Card:
If you would like to pay via credit card, please email Treasurer, Caroline Walker, [email protected] with the amount to be donated, and she will issue you an invoice to pay online.
