Briarmeadow Subdivision - Houston, TX

Smoke Detectors/Fire Safety

Last Updated on October 5, 2009

As reported in the October Briarmeadow Broadcast, October is National Fire Prevention Month.  One of the easiest, cheapest, and most effective things you can do to increase your level of safety is to install smoke detectors in your home.  If you cannot afford one, every HFD Fire Station should have a supply of free smoke detectors.  The closest fire station to Briarmeadow is Station 60 at 2925 Jeanetta @ the NE corner of Clarkcrest (77063).  If Station 60 is out of free smoke detectors, or you need help installing yours, call the HFD Public Affairs Office at (713) 495-7900, or you can contact Paul Box of the HFD Public Affairs Division:

Adult Swim - Not Before 12 on Mondays

Last Updated on August 17, 2009

A message to all Briarmeadow "adult swimmers". Effective August 24, 2009, there will be no swimming (by anyone) allowed on Mondays prior to 12:00 noon. The pool is cleaned every Monday between 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. and our pool guy has a hard time getting everything vacuumed if someone is in the pool or someone has just been in the pool (dirt is floating around un-settled from the movement of swimmers). If you choose to swim at noon on Mondays, please be advised that the chlorine levels may possibly be higher than normal if the pool needs to be shocked that day.
