City Council has announced Mike Fisco as their selection for Citizen of the Year from among the numerous nominations they received. Mr. Fisco, a resident on Shoreacres Blvd. is recognized for his many valuable contributions to the City.

Employee of the Year

City Council has announced Robin Eldridge as their selection for Employee of the Year. Ms. Eldridge has been on the City staff since 1998. Robin is a key part of a small team of employees who handle the day-to-day administrative affairs of City Hall. She can be relied on to handle her many responsibilities with a smile!

Public Recognition

You are invited to join City Council in publicly recognizing our Citizen & Employee of the Year at 7pm, Monday, April 25th at City Hall.

Shoreacres Civic Association

It’s time to renew your SCA membership (or join for the first time). Applications are available from Tracy Revak at 281.471.3425, by e-mail ThreeTRs@aol.com or at City Hall.

Donations Needed

The SCA is looking for a few good new or used cinderblocks for a garden project. Maybe you have a few left over from a project around your house? Contact Tracy at 281.471.3425 or ThreeTRs@aol.com.

Lending a Helping Hand

A community based effort is underway to assist a long-time Shoreacres resident whose home has fallen into serious disrepair. With assistance of the City, faith-based charities, and local volunteers we hope to see the exiting house demolished and replaced with a modest home that will allow a good person to remain one of our neighbors.

More volunteers and serious donations (including in-kind services) are needed to make this dream come true. Please consider pitching in to help. Contact Mayor Nancy Edmonson for more details at 281.471.2244 or by e-mail at mayor@cityofshoreacres.us.

Council to Discuss Storage of Oversized Vehicles

Concerns about oversized vehicles stored on residential lots will be discussed at the regular April 25th meeting of city council. This dialogue may lead to the development of an ordinance regulating the storage of large boats, trailers, trucks, buses and/or motor homes. Your input is welcome and encouraged.

Clean-Up Green-up – Saturday, April 30th – 8am to 3pm

You have one more opportunity to participate in our Spring Clean-Up Green-Up campaign. You trim and haul and we’ll grind and mulch. Vegetation and limbs up to 6-inches in diameter can be brought to the City’s yard just west of SH-146 (enter north and before the RR tracks) between the hours of 8am and 3pm. A City crew will meet you there with heavy equipment to unload and chip your limbs. Free mulch is even available for your return trip!

Heron Park Is In Bloom !

Heron Park has been professionally landscaped on the west side and in the pond area. Both spots are in bloom with iris. Thanks to all the volunteers who have worked hard at watering and mulching the trails, Please remember that the park is using 6-inch diameter limbs 5-feet in length to border the trails. Please do not dump plants, trees or branches at the park. Any item, including limbs, must be received by a member of the Parks Board, Heron Park Committee or the City’s Public Works Department.

For additional information please contact Mary Beth Maher at 281.4714145 or Tracy Revak at 281.471.3425.
