A Non-Profit Incorporated OrganizationLOW INCOME APARTMENTS

Once again we have stopped the development of another low income complex, the one within the main entrance of the Stone Gate community on Queenston near Barker Cypress. This was an apartment complex for the low income elderly. We held two meetings, one with Amy Peck with Senator Patrick’s office and Edith Gibson with Rep. Elkin’s office. The second meeting was with the developer, Galaxy Companies (San Antonio) who had filed with TDHCA for the 2013 9% tax credit. The developer was planning to build a Five (5) story complex with 98 units and roughly 200 parking spaces. It was to be located on a lot three acres in size, pie-shaped, and located directly behind Romero’s restaurant and the State Farm office. The Coalition registered with the TDHCA as an entity that can give or remove points, which affects whether a developer would receive approval from TDHCA. In a formal letter sent to the developer via email, we informed him that we were registered with the TDHCA and that we were opposing this project. We also informed him that we were going to request our elected officials to do the same. A short time later, he replied back with one brief sentence, “We will not be moving forward with this project.”

We chose to oppose this to TDHCA for the following reasons:• The location that has been selected is too small for the facility. It is not

feasible to build a 98 unit complex with 200 parking spaces on a 3-acre lot (Pie-shaped).

• The structure that is being considered will be five (5) stories in height, backed up to a residential community, and there are no structures beyond two stories within a several mile radius.

• The area does not have mass transit to accommodate the elderly who can no longer drive.

• The proposed complex will not provide transportation for those elderly who can no longer drive.

• This complex is being proposed outside the city limits and there are no social services to aid the low income residents.As reported in last month’s issue, a second developer, Kilday Realty

Corporation, had also filed for a 9% tax credit to build a low income housing development. It was planned to be built on West Road just west

of Telge right next door to the new Kid’s World Learning Center. After the Coalition spoke with Mr. Kilday on three separate occasions,

he chose to withdraw his application. Mr. Kilday held up his agreement not to proceed as it is no longer listed on the TDHCA March 2013 Application Log. March 1st was the deadline to file for full application.

PARKING OF 18 WHEELERSA few months ago, a resident from Copper Grove informed the

Coalition that 18 wheelers were parking on Grove Park Drive, a street that connects between Copper Grove and Northmeade of Copperfield. These 18 wheelers were parking for extended periods of time and have been noted to have on occasion the drivers sleeping in their cabs. These trucks were also leaking excessive amounts of diesel motor oil and hydraulic fluid on the street. The Coalition contacted Commissioner Steve Radack’s office and requested the placement of no parking signs for commercial vehicles. After a couple of emails back and forth, we received a call from Commissioner Radack’s office informing us that on February 26 a No Overnight Parking sign was installed. We would like to thank Commissioner Radack’s office for assisting us with this issue. If you see any commercial vehicles parking on Grove Park Drive, please call the Sheriff Department’s non-emergency number and request it to either receive a citation or be towed. If you see any 18 wheelers parking within the Coalition boundaries that are not on commercial property, please inform us so we may address the issue.

MONTHLY MEETINGS OPEN TO ALLCome to one of our meetings and find out what we are all about. If you

COPPER CORNERS SERVICE UNITGIRL SCOUTS OF SAN JACINTO COUNCIL

Copper Corners Service Unit held a “Me and My Guy event” on March 2 at Aragon Middle School. Girls and their special guys (dads, granddads, uncles…) participated in “Passport to Italy

It was a regular red carpet night and fashion display, as the young ladies and their chosen escorts arrived. Sequins and sparkles, velvet and lace all were part of the fashion parade. A number of couples were also elegantly color-coordinated. Wrist corsages of ribbon roses or real flowers added a stylish note, and we noticed one young lady with a bouquet of beautiful yellow tulips!

The event began with a delicious dinner of penne pasta, sauce, and meatballs, served with salad and rolls. and cake for dessert. The cafeteria was transformed into an Italian restaurant, with red checked table cloths and flower centerpieces.

Girls made trinket boxes and spoon puppets, and also built “leaning towers” out of marshmallows and toothpicks. - along with pyramids and geodesic domes and other creative constructions. The “goodie walk” and bingo areas were also popular, and girls learned about different pasta shapes and trivia .A “Photograph by Misty” made a great souvenir of the evening. Can’t help wondering how many of the mustache party favors made an appearance in the photographs!

It is always such fun to see the girls dancing with their dads or other special guys. DJ’s Andy and Caroline Bartos provided a mix of Italian favorites (like “Amore”) and more current musical selections that enlivened dinner, and got a group of very lively dancers out on the floor!

Many thanks to all who helped to make the evening a success, especially Elaine Boubenider, Jerilyn Kortegast and Kristin Kolb, our event chairs. We also are thankful to the older Scouts, who ran the goodie walk. and bingo games, as well as helping in many other areas. Thanks, also to all our adult volunteers, and to Donna Fontenot, Windee Falla and Felicia Ferguson. of our steering committee

April 28 is the scheduled date for our Daisy Day Event. Information has been sent to all our Daisy troops about this afternoon event. Contact Diane Massie for more information at 281-550-9148/[email protected].

We are expecting to have information on Brownie Day soon, as well as a service unit Bridging event, for troops who are moving to the next Girl Scout Level. Look for more information coming soon!

Daisy troop 16465 dressed up in their rodeo outfits for a visit from children’s book author Melanie Chrismer. She read to the girls from her book “Phoebe Clapsaddle and the Tumbleweed Gang, and they had a great time visiting with the popular author. Looks like they may have learned a rope trick or two, as well! (See pictures)

Girl Scouts also celebrated the 101st anniversary (March 12) of Girl Scouting in the United States. Many of our Girl Scouts participated in Girl Scout Sunday/Sabbath/Shabbat at their places of worship.

Sales of Girl Scout cookies continued through March, but if you didn’t stock up, you might have to wait until next year! Cookie sales are a major source of funding for individual troops, and help to equip

and maintain our great camps. The most recent issue of the “Golden Link” had information on day and twilight camps- some in our area.

Girl Scouting is open to all girls aged 5 (must be in kindergarten) to 18, who are willing to live by the Girl Scout Promise and Law. Girls may join at any time and any level, and no previous Scouting experience is required. Copper Corners serves girls in the residence areas for Birkes, Fiest and Lowery Elementary schools, Aragon and Labay Middle schools, and the corresponding high schools. Home schooled and private school students are always welcome.

It is never too late to get involved in all that Girl Scouts has to offer. Give us a call- we’d love to talk to you! Please contact Dianne Massie at 281-550-9148 for more information.

COPPERFIELD COURIERMaking Waves in Texas/Red Dirt Music Scene

The Brandon McDermott Band heads to Cypress Saloon onApril 20th.From Galveston to Amarillo to College Station and now coming to the

Cypress area, the Brandon McDermott Band has been bringing their exciting brand of Texas country music to stages all across the Lone Star State. The Brandon McDermott Band started in College Station, TX when McDermott, a graduate of Texas A&M University, began writing songs and playing at open mics. After moving back to his hometown of Galveston and playing some solo acoustic shows, he met up with island musicians Kevin Anderson (lead guitar, harmonica, vocals), Clark Duhon (bass) and Broc Adams (drums, vocals), to form the rest of the band. It didn’t take long for audiences to take notice and start filling up local venues to watch them play. “I think people come out to our shows because we play fun music that they can identify with. We’re not trying to change the world with the songs we write. We just play songs that are fun to drink beer and dance to,” McDermott says. “I’m pretty sure our brand of music could best be described as a river of invaluable information spoken at just the right temperature for skinny dipping,” jokes the band. While the Brandon McDermott Band got their start on Galveston island and has developed a very loyal following there, they have fans all over the state and by no means do they limit their appearances to south of the causeway. The band has made their presence known in the Houston music scene and beyond, and has been sharing the stage with some of Texas music’s biggest names such

as the Josh Abbott Band, Reckless Kelly, Aaron Watson, Brandon Rhyder, Honeybrowne and Bri Bagwell.

With the release of their first album, “Mile Marker Zero,” the Brandon McDermott Band has really made their mark on the Texas/Red Dirt music scene. “There is a definitive honesty to the songs on the record… a ‘been there, done that, why do you think I’m drinking?’ quality” that most people can relate to. The album, which is available on iTunes and Amazon, does a great job at capturing the energy and enthusiasm the band brings to their live shows. Currently the band is gearing up to return to the studio to begin recording their second album. On April 20th, The Brandon McDermott Band will be rolling into the Cyfair area for the first time to bring their brand of Texas/Red Dirt Music to the exciting Cypress Saloon. Their live shows have drawn impressive reviews from country music publications and industry people alike; and promises to be chock-full of fun energetic music that is guaranteed to make all in attendance have a heck of a time and asking for more. So mark your calendars, call your friends, put those boots on and make plans to be at the Cypress Saloon on April 20th for the first of hopefully many more visits from the Brandon McDermott Band. You won’t be disappointed.

registration session for all middle and high school athletes and their parents interested in joining for the 2013 season. The event will be held on Friday, April 12th, from 7:00 – 8:30 PM in the small commons at Cypress Creek High School, 9815 Grant Rd., Houston.

The Northwest Flyers is a youth (ages 6 -18) track organization, affiliated with USA Track & Field. The club provides a full program of “track” events such as sprints, hurdles, middle distance, distance and relays, and “field” events such as long jump, triple jump, high jump, pole vault, discus, shot put and javelin. It is an excellent “off-season” program for young athletes who currently compete on their middle school or high school track teams.

The club was founded 26 years ago by Olympic gold medalist Fred Newhouse to foster the development of youth track & field in the northwest Houston area. Last year, the Northwest Flyers sent 106 young athletes to compete at U.S. Junior Olympics National Championships in Baltimore, Maryland and Albuquerque, New Mexico.
