Enjoy exercising, or walking the dog in our beautiful acres of green belts, with a 1/2 mile long gravel trail, which stretches from the North to the South ends of the neighborhood. The private gated community park is centrally located in our community, and the trail makes a loop around it as well. There are also activities for kids along the trail to spark their interest to be outdoors. The beautiful painted elm trees has become quite the landmark along the trail. These particular trees were killed by one of the worst freezes in Houston's recorded history, on February 14, 2021. The elm "redwood" is some of the finest wood, and we locked them in time with a vivid color scheme.
Neighborhood kids love to visit the park to hangout, swing, and play on the kids gym! Great central location in the community for gatherings, parties, and socialization.
In addition to getting some walking, or jogging exercise, we have great outdoor fitness gym for adults & teens, to get fit, and stay in shape! It also allows adults a great option for an activity while their kids play at the park!

Neighborhood Fences adjoining the Greenway must be maintained in a neat and attractive condition at all times. Greenway fences must be six (6) feet in height (6ft 6inch maximum height with base rot board) with pickets six or eight (6-8) inches in width, 5/8"-1" inch thickness, and must be installed in the shadow box construction, with 3" spacing to provide privacy. It's also recommended to have 3# 2x4" support rails that are vertically flipped instead of flat horizontal to provide better strength, and prevent fence sagging. It is the responsibility of each homeowner to repair or replace deteriorated greenway fences.
In addition the spacing between pickets can be the same as the picket width, but most neighbors will agree that less spacing between the pickets looks better and offers a little more privacy. Discuss this with your contractor before starting. (Example: Six inch pickets can have a spacing of 3-6 inches and Eight inch pickets can have a spacing of 5-8 inches.) The Architectural Control Committee
recommends using Cedar Pickets, but there are options for pressure treated & stained white wood which are more affordable. Find "fence builders guide" in the drive folder link below -https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/162CNOsDTizkM44eg3in2uKLjke3RfrDu?usp=sharing
There are no deed restrictions for fences between the houses and it is up to the homeowners to resolve any disputes.
{Deed restrictions make for a beautiful and orderly neighborhood. They ensure you and your neighbors adhere to proper lawn and house care to keep property values up.}
Deed restrictions exist to protect your property values and quality of life. Without them, and especially given its location, Northbrook would quickly deteriorate into a hodgepodge of homes, shops, businesses, and a haven for crime.
How do we know this?
Because of the number and variety of nuisances that we have had to handle over the years - everything from brothels to chop shops and resale shops in garages to transient shelters in homes to, would you believe it, a horse kept in the back yard.
Why do people get so upset with enforcement?
Most don't, of course, but for those that do we suspect it is mostly a combination of ignorance and cussedness. (A neighbor of yours in the past has threatened to kill our deed restriction committee chair or anyone else who tried to enforce the restrictions.) Most of the problems come from people who have never read the Northbrook deed restrictions or just don't like them. Deed restrictions are fine for someone else, but not me.
What about that guy down the street?
Yeah, his place looks bad too, but we're working on it. Sometimes it takes a little longer, especially if the place is in receivership, has been abandoned, or is otherwise tied up in the law.
Can you really enforce them?
We sure can and do. First, when you bought your property, you agreed to abide by the covenants with which it came. You gave the Association the right to do whatever is required to obtain compliance. Second, we have a pretty good track record of enforcement. Third, your state legislature recently enacted some new rules governing property owners, property owners associations, and the like. The legislature gave some very clear rules for owner's rights, but it also gave us better structure for the procedures.
So, what is the process?
In most cases, you would first get a reminder/nice letter pointing out the problem. If that gets ignored, or immediately in special cases, you would get a certified letter indicating the problem and your rights and responsibilities. When you get that notice, the meter is running. Your responsibility will be to make a correction or respond in writing within thirty days. If you let the meter run out, we turn the matter over to our attorney, and you become responsible for all further costs.
What if I don't accept the certified letter?
That doesn't change anything. How about leniency? If you mean letting you off the hook, no way. If you mean giving you more time or help, we do that all the time. Of course, if you have given us a lot of trouble in the matter, you are not likely to get much forgiveness.
Who makes the decision on what constitutes a violation?
In most cases, the decision is already made by the deed restrictions. It is right there in black and white. In some cases, it is up to your neighbors serving on the Board and/or acting as the Architectural Control Committee.
