A note from Steve Cox:
My wife Sydney and I moved to the Oakwood neighborhood a little over six years ago. We previously had lived in Richardson for thirty years, and have lived in the DFW area for over 40 years. We had been active in our Richardson neighborhood HOA, although neither of us ever held a board position. When we moved to Oakwood we wanted to stay involved with HOA activities mainly as a way to meet our neighbors, but also to stay informed about what was going on locally. I am a licensed professional engineer and have been self-employed for over 24 years. The services I provide include electrical system assessments, energy use assessments, and other related engineering/technical services in addition to teaching technical training classes. Previously, I was employed by Texas Utilities Company (now Vista/Oncor), and my last role there was as a principal engineer overseeing a technical services group in the de-regulated Energy Services Division.
E-Bikes, E-Cycles, and Kids
Many times a week, neighbors have seen kids on motorized cycles riding in excess of posted speed limits, jumping speed bumps, riding in the middle of streets, and coasting on only 1 wheel through the neighborhood. It is dangerous for all involved: riders, drivers, and even pedestrians. PARENTS, please do not allow your kids to break Fairview laws, tell them to use caution and be courteous, and monitor what they are doing. Fairview police are aware of the issue, which has met with tragic results in other communities.
