ANNUAL MEETING
The Middlebrook Community Association Annual Meeting is February 1, 2010 at the Armand Bayou Elementary School.  Pull into the parking lot on Running Springs and go into the doors facing Running Springs closest to Hickory Knoll.  The meeting will begin at 7:00pm.  There will be door prizes and refreshments in case you have to come straight from work.

City Councilman Mike Sullivan and Houston Police Community Liaison Officer Randy Derr will speak.  Last year they were both fabulous at updating us with City Council plans and activities along with current crime and deterrents.  These things directly affect our lives, and we need to be aware of them.   The community thanks them for coming.

Last year's MCA Board activities and upcoming plans will also be discussed.  There are lots of plans.  The Board welcomes your support and ideas.  There are 4 board positions that will be voted on.

There needs to be at least one-third of the community present for any decisions to be made.  Please help us and make your voice heard.  Middlebrook is truly a community run neighborhood.  You need to be there.  We need your support to make Middlebrook a fantastic place to live.

Increase in Home Burglaries
There has been an increase in home burglaries in surrounding subdivisions over the past few months. In fact, there have been 33 burglaries in the past 30 days in the Clear Lake area --- 25 of them this month.  To date they have been south of Clear Lake City Blvd and to the west of Brook Forest Dr.  These are happening during the daytime.  The criminals are going into the backyard and breaking a window or door to enter.  A red car, possibly a Honda or a hatchback seems to be connected.

Please be aware and alert.  Call the police with any information you may know and any suspicious activity you may see or be aware of.  The police need your eyes and ears.  The criminals even parked their car in the driveway next door.  The homeowners were home and wondered why someone would park in their driveway, but never got a license plate number or called the police.  Please don't let this be you.  Call the police with anything suspicious.
