Take a look at Charles Todd Helton Architect,Inc. ( charlestoddhelton@yahoo.com) We currently have hired him to come up with a design here in Woodland Heights area. Very Pleased With Him! Easy to communicate with and caught on really quick with our vision. Good Luck!

I think you've miss took my "BAR SCENE" comment. These are target rich area's for thieves/thugs. Due to parking problems in the area there's no real security outside those businesses. Plus there's easy access to major freeways for thier getaways. I agree that many of the Patron's to these businesses are in good standing within the community. I just like to see more aggressive / active patrol for these area's. Just ask those business owner's how many Burglary of Motor Vehicle's occur during the week. I'd like to see a more active patrol for daytime hours (While the Cats away the Mice will play), daytime is the primetime for home burglary's. I think it takes citizens reporting susp.activity and rapid response by the police. I'd like to see some of the downtown bike patrol unit's pulled and put into the Heights Area.

I've lived in the Heights area for approx. 8 yrs. and I've noticed a slight increase in crime since the Bar Scene set in. But crime overall in Houston has increased. We don't have half the problems the "BURBS" do. I've also heard that HPD is putting a Tac/Hotspot/Gang Unit together to enforce ZERO TOLERANCE in trouble area's. I'm not a big fan of Contract Patrol (Constables) why should I be DOULBE TAXED for police protection? Maybe the supervisors with HPD should be held accountable for the productivity of their current officer's on the street. Maybe a more PROACTIVE approach to patrol? How many times have you seen pro active patrol (traffic stops,DWI enforcement,TABC bar checks,susp.persons/vehicle stops etc...) in the area ? I can count on one hand how many times I've seen a traffic stops being made in the area. Walk like DUCK ,act like a DUCK ---- GUESS WHAT??? IT's A DUCK!
