Town Hall Meeting August 30!

Come hear the recommendations that the subcommittees have been working hard to compile for the park-like amenities for the old Clear Lake golf course!

Thursday, August 30 from 7p to 9p at St. Bernadette's Parish Hall.

Our community has really come together with hundreds of people providing input and ideas in what will surely be, in Doug Peterson's great quote, "the crown jewel of Clear Lake!"

The proposals will be officially submitted to the CLCWA board on the 30th, and the review process will begin.  All the pieces of this fantastic project will be put together over the next months and our community will benefit from state of the art storm water management as well as a beautiful and eco-friendly green space to enjoy for generations to come.

A hardy thank you to all of you who are checking on this project through our blog (over 4,000 page views!), our website and the Facebook page, and to the tireless efforts of the volunteers who have dedicated themselves to excellence and professionalism as we have moved forward.

See you on the 30th!

  1. Very new to this blog and glad to see people stepping up to make a positive difference in our community. Not sure if this has been discussed, however. We've been residents of CLC for 15 years and have a seen a noticeable increase in crime in this area in the last few years, especially. We've seen homeless people bedding down over by the Kroger on El Camino. My neighbor across the street has had his house broken into 3 times. I'm not sure I would ever feel safe using any of the recreational facilities on the site of the old golf course as it can be pretty remote. Has this been a consideration?

  2. The safety and security issues are a high priority, especially after dark. As a golf course, there were no issues, and we expect as more people walk and bike and walk their dogs, and generally come out and use it, there will be nominal negative situations. The HPD and Harris county are in the loop, and have been doing a great job since the closure of the course a few years ago.
