  • Residential Design Review Committee

    Each developed village in The Woodlands has a Residential Design Review Committee (RDRC). Committee members serve in a volunteer capacity and represent the resident viewpoint essential to the evaluation and approval process. The RDRC meets at least once a month to review property owners' applications for modifications or additions to their properties.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE

The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) is part of every Village in The Woodlands. The CERT Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization and disaster medical operations.

Held at The Woodlands Emergency Training Center over an eight-week period, the Woodlands CERT course is taught by a team of expert first responders with a full-scale disaster simulation exercise conducted at graduation. Classes meet one night a week for three hours with most sessions involving practical exercises as well as classroom instruction.

For more information or to register for CERT, please e-mail info@twcert.com, go to http://twcert.com or call the Montgomery County Office of Emergency Management at 936-523-3903.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS

Residents of The Woodlands are encouraged to develop emergency preparedness plans for their families and neighborhoods. The Neighborhood Services Department, along with The Woodlands Fire Department, can assist residents with these plans through its Get Ready - The Woodlands program, which provides information on how to prepare for both natural and man-made emergencies.

In addition to basic emergency preparedness steps outlined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on the Ready.gov Web site, Neighborhood Services provides information that pertains specifically to The Woodlands, including how to obtain information on local services and ways neighbors can work together before and after an emergency.

Neighborhood Services can provide Get Ready presentations that last anywhere from a 15 minute introduction to emergency preparedness to a one hour interactive presentation that provides in-depth training. Our staff can hold these events in a resident's home, a central neighborhood location such as a park, or through community organizations including churches, service organizations or schools.

To schedule an emergency preparedness presentation, please contact the Neighborhood Services Department at 281-210-3885.

The basic steps are as outlined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on the Ready.gov web site.

Step One: Get a Kit of Emergency Supplies These supplies should include:

Battery-powered radio and extra batteries Filter mask or cotton T-shirt - to help filter the air First Aid kit Flashlight and extra batteries Food - at least a three-day supply of non-perishable food per person Garbage bags and plastic ties - for personal sanitation Manual can opener - for canned goods Moist Towelettes - for sanitation Plastic sheeting and duct tape - to shelter-in-place Unique family needs - such as medications or baby needs Water - one gallon per person per day for drinking and sanitation Whistle to signal for help Wrench or pliers - to turn off utilities

Step Two: Make A Plan Your family may not be together when disaster strikes, so it is important to plan in advance:

How you will contact one another? How you will get back together? What you will do in different situations?

Step Three: Be Informed About What Might Happen

Assemble your kit and prepare yourself by visiting Ready.gov.

Step Four: Get Involved in Preparing Your Community Join volunteer groups such as CERT.

Create a plan with your neighbors to assist each other and share resources.
