Remington Municipal Utility District No. 1

Dear Residents of Remington MUD No. 1,

To help alleviate the impact of the chaotic weather last Thursday, May 16, the MUD Board has contracted with Best Trash to conduct a one-time pick up of storm debris in the District next Wednesday, May 29.

Please note that this will be a collection of only tree trunks, tree limbs and branches, and damaged fences. Such debris should be placed on your curb the night before or before 6 a.m. next Wednesday. Other debris, garbage, heavy trash, and recycling will not be picked up in this collection run.

If you have questions, please contact Best Trash directly.

Sincerely,

Your MUD Board of Directors.

Best Trash extends sympathy to all of our customers that have been impacted by the recent storms. We will do our best to help get everyone back to normal. Please clearly separate the regular household garbage from the storm debris.

Tree limbs may not exceed 4 inches in diameter, no longer than 4 feet and tied and bundled not heavier than 40 lbs. and separate to show they are tied/bundled. Crews may collect up to 3 bundles each service day.

We ask that residents be patient during times like this as the crews have been instructed to prioritize the household trash and then the storm debris. Please understand that all the debris will not be collected at one time. Residents may contact customerservice@besttrashtexas.com with a picture of their debris and their address/neighborhood name for a quote for special one-time collection.

The West Harris County Regional Water Authority has moved into Stage 1 drought status.

As a result, Remington MUD must also move into Stage 1 Drought Status. During Stage 1, all users are asked to voluntarily conserve water whenever possible.

Below are suggestions on how to conserve water.

Five Ways to Conserve Water

• Bathroom
• Kitchen
• Yard

If you see a water leak, please reach out to Inframark directly at their 24/7 Emergency Number (281) 398-8211 so that the matter can be investigated immediately.

Thank you for your participation in this community conservation efforts. Every drop counts!

Winter weather and freezing temperatures are expected this week across Texas. The National Weather Service is forecasting widespread freezing temperatures on Friday and Saturday mornings. Residents should closely monitor media and the National Weather Service for updates to the forecast. We wanted to assure you that the teams at Inframark are monitoring and working diligently in preparation for a freezing weather event to safeguard your facilities. It is also important that you take action as well in protecting the “Four P’s”: People, pets, pipes and plants.

People

• Keep warm, stay inside if possible.
• If you need to go out, dress in layers and wear hats, gloves and an appropriate coat.
• Avoid overexertion, as cold weather puts added strain on your body.

Pets

• Bring pets inside, and move other animals or livestock to sheltered areas.
• Keep adequate food and water available.

Pipes

• Disconnect outdoor hoses, drain and store in protected area.
• Wrap exposed faucets and pipes – including those outside the house or in unheated crawl spaces, attics, garages and other areas.

Plants

• Bring potted plants inside or store in garage near interior wall to provide extra warmth and protection from wind.
• For cold-sensitive outdoor plants, put down extra mulch and consider covering with a cloth fabric of some kind to shield the plants from wind and frost.

If you have an irrigation system, turn off the water to the system at your backflow preventer and then drain the system so your irrigation pipes and sprinkler heads are not damaged. As always, if you see any leaks, please report them immediately to Inframark’s 24/7 Emergency Number – (281) 398-8211.

Dear Remington MUD Residents,

Despite the sporadic rain we’ve received over the past few weeks, our region is remains in a drought. As today is August 1^st, the beginning of the driest month of the year, we ask that you continue your efforts to conserve water.

Please limit your outdoor water usage to the following:

• Sundays and Thursdays for even numbered addresses
• Saturdays and Wednesdays for odd numbered addresses.

Please limit this outdoor consumption to the hours of 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM.

Every drop counts, and remaining mindful with your water consumption, especially during peak consumption periods (4 am to 8 am and 4 pm to 8 pm), makes a big impact on our community’s water system.

If you see a water leak anywhere in our subdivision please report it immediately by calling (832) 398-8211 or by writing in to MUDCustomerService@Inframark.com.

Dear Residents,

The West Harris County Regional Water Authority (WHCRWA) has requested that all Municipal Utility Districts within its boundaries voluntarily reduce their water usage.

In the event of Mild Drought Conditions, we’re asking residents and other users to voluntarily reduce outdoor water usage as follows:

• Sundays and Thursdays for even numbered addresses
• Saturdays and Wednesdays for odd numbered addresses

To help reduce the strain on our water system, please limit your outdoor usage to between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6 a.m.

While we have had small bouts of rain over the past few days, the overall drought continues to strain our water system and those other systems which help supply us. We ask that you help reduce this stress on our community’s water system by remaining mindful, especially during peak consumption periods (4 a.m. to 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.). Please ensure that your irrigation systems are leak free.

If you see a water leak anywhere in our subdivision please report it immediately by calling (832) 398-8211 or by writing in to MUDCustomerService@Inframark.com.

Richard Cannon was re-elected, and Douglas Miksch was not. Mr. Miksch’s spot on the Board will be filled by Larry Connelly.

Note: These are unofficial results. The official results will be approved at a special Board meeting set to occur next Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. at 16500 Houston National Blvd, Houston, TX 77095.
