- Light up your property.
- Install (1) "No trespassing signs" (2) "Video surveillance signs" (3) residential alarms and (4) cameras.
- Secure your valuables.
Please see San Jacinto County Constable Pct 4 Brian Cosme's contact information and valuable information on how to keep our community safe: Page 1 and Page 2
Please let the Board of Directors know if you are interested in heading up or participating in a Neighborhood Watch committee. Or, if you have other ideas to keep our community safe.
You can email the Board at forestcovepb@gmail.com or by completing the form below.
Your Volunteer Board of Directors/Officers Respectively Requests That...
property owners do not, either verbally or in writing, use language that can be construed as threatening, intimidating, aggressive, foul-mouthed, or any other offensive communication to others. These altercations may be recorded and provided to the proper authorities. The Board is always open for civil discussion and will assist however possible, including helping to find a solution that will work for everyone.
Annual maintenance fees are currently $125.00 per lot. These funds are used for:
- Financial Management of POA Dues
- Maintenance of common areas throughout the subdivision which helps to keep our community attractive and contributes to safety.
- Community communications via email
- Overseeing installation of streetlights
- Installing and maintenance of street signs.
- Community fishing pier maintenance.
- Maintenance of foot bridge between Section 3 and Section 2.
- Common area tree trimming as needed and as approved by the FC POA.
- Paying all utilities and oversight of street lights and signage for safety.
- Clubhouse rentals managed by POA Secretary.
- Ensuring Bylaws and Deed Restrictions are kept current as required by Texas State Laws or to keep in line with changing times.
- Invoicing annually for POA Maintenance fees.
- Collections of past due maintenance fees, including court appearances, as necessary.
- Major repairs of POA bulkheads.
- And many more items not mentioned here. Join us at our quarterly POA meetings to learn more and to present your ideas for a better community.
The Board highly encourages each one of you to secure your personal environments which can be done with lock and key, cameras, or however you deem necessary. Your neighbor is not always going to be home and driving through an entrance to Sections 1 & 3 or Section 2 is only one way to access the community.
Thank you!
