2015 District 3 Council Corner

Hello neighbors, I just want to take a quick minute to express my appreciation to the Lakewood Civic Association and Lakewood Garden Club for their continued efforts of ensuring we have a beautiful neighborhood to enjoy. We are very fortunate to have such an active neighborhood community.
I also want to update you on a few neighborhood and city-wide issues. Currently Holly Drive is under construction and should be completed soon. When I look back and measure the condition of our neighborhood streets now compared to 10 years ago I can see that we have made much improvement throughout the neighborhood. Our work is not done, however it is always good to see your hard earned tax dollars at work. Also, the safety of you and your family is very important to me and I continue to ask for increased police patrols and communication with our residents when it comes to getting rid of the criminal elements. If you see any suspicious individuals or activities please report it to the police, 281-422-8371 for non-emergency calls. We continue to enhance or fire protection system in hopes of achieving an improved ISO rating that should result in lower insurance rates for home owners.
This spring city council will be very busy interviewing and selecting a new city manager because of the retirement of Bob Leiper. The city manager is responsible for overseeing the day to day activities of city personnel and implementing policy as directed by city council. We continue to focus on litter abatement and removing blighted properties around the city, but we must begin with what is in our individual control. Please take a moment to remove piles of debris and materials from your property. The city-wide Trash-Off will be April 11th, from 9am-2pm. Household hazardous waste and electronic waste can be dropped off at 1200 Lee Dr., that same day and hours, please visit our new website for more details at www.baytown.org . Our economic development efforts continue to bring new restaurants, retailers and improved grocery store choices. With this growth comes increased traffic, we have hired an engineering firm to design road improvements for our most congested areas of Garth road. I believe there will be great and exciting news throughout the year regarding new development and initiatives, stayed tuned…
It is my distinct privilege to represent you on Baytown City Council and I look forward to seeing you out and about in the community. Please feel free to contact me by e-mail at district3@baytown.org. May God Bless you and your family.

Brandon Capetillo
