Welcome to the Houston Heights Association

GENERAL MEETING IS SECOND MONDAY OF EVERY MONTH
Please join us for “Recycling – Green Ideas for Everyone!” on Monday, July 13th at 7:00 PM at the old Heights City Hall & Firestation, 107 W. 12th @ Yale. Mike Palmer, recycling educator for the City of Houston, will outline the basics you’ll need to get started and how easy it can be to participate. For those already recycling regularly, Palmer will review ways to improve your contribution to the Houston Recycling Program.  In the meantime, if you would like to obtain or replace a  recycling bin, you can order online by clicking here.

Additionally, the City of Houston’s has a new pilot program that started this spring using single-stream recycling! We will learn about this pilot program and the projected timelines for expansion into other neighborhoods. It is certain that increasing the Heights participation in our current curbside recycling will put our neighborhood in line to be added to this exciting new program.  Single-stream recycling will allow residents to throw all recyclables – including glass – into a single, large bin. The new single-stream containers will be picked up curbside using the automated arm system that our trash trucks currently use.

Please join us for this most important meeting that is sure to enhance not only our knowledge of the best practices in recycling that have a direct impact on our beautiful Heights neighborhood and the environment in general. We look forward to seeing you there!

Design Guide for Historic Heights Districts will be available to purchase for $30 each at these meetings or click here to purchase online.
