Think You Have Foundation Problems?
It doesn’t always take a specialist to tell you that you have foundation problems. You can determine this for yourself if you examine your house carefully. Here is a checklist for you to follow:
Problems like these should not be taken lightly. Cracks in the interior walls are unsightly and reduce the value of your house. Cracks in the brick walls admit wind and rain that damage the sheathing insulation and interior wall. Poorly fitted windowsills and doors let in outside air and result in high utility bills. Roof leaks damage the wooden beams, insulation, interior walls and ceiling, and electrical wiring. Shifting of the soil foundation may cause gas and water lines to loosen or bend, creating unsafe conditions and fire hazards.
Save your investment and keep your family safe.
Sugar Land continues to encourage voluntary water
conservation as the state continues to experience one of the worst
droughts in Texas history.
Rainfall data collected at Sugar Land Regional Airport is well below
last year’s average.
Sugar Land residents, homeowner associations and commercial properties
are asked to limit outdoor irrigation to no more than two days a week;
however, the following voluntary restrictions have been lifted:
With weather forecasts predicting very little precipitation during the
normally wet winter and spring months, water providers across the state
are keeping restrictions in place to preserve the state’s water
resources.
“Sustainable water sources are one of our top priorities,” said
Water Resources Manager Colleen Spencer. “Even though the City has
secured adequate resources to meet demands and adhere to future
subsidence district regulations that will limit groundwater withdrawals,
water conservation should be a top priority for all of us.”
For more information on the City’s voluntary irrigation restrictions,
call the Sugar Land Utilities Department at (281) 275-2450.
If you have ever had the unfortunate event of falling victim to a violent crime, you know all too well the devastation it can leave behind. Victims and their families may experience physical, financial, and emotional trauma in the aftermath of a violent crime. The Crime Victims’ Compensation (CVC) Program provides financial reimbursement of expenses associated with these injuries along with the invaluable assistance of victim service providers.
Some of the assistance that is offered at the Sugar Land Police Department for crime victims are emotional support for victims and families, crises intervention counseling immediately following violent crime, either at the scene or at the police department, referrals for long-term counseling, legal assistance, shelters, and other services, notification and assistance in applying for crime victim compensation, advocacy for victims rights and services on local and state level, and assistance in making arrangements or appointments following violent crime.
It is your right as an innocent victim of crime to request and use these services. The Crime Victim Assistance Coordinator can be reached by calling the Sugar Land Police Department at 281-275-2500.
