SECURITY PROGRAM SIGNUP
CONSTABLE SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM
The cost of the Constable program is paid for by subscriptions which are solicited on an annual basis from the MAMA community. The cost of the subscriptions are $550, $1100, and $1650 with the average donation around $800. We are grateful for the 25% of residents that carry the security program and are hopeful we can bring that number up by informing our neighbors of the many successes of the constable program. If the security program is not for you, please support MAMA by becoming a member of the civic association at the $50 level.
BENEFITS OF CONSTABLE SECURITY PROGRAM
- Decreased crime
Since this program started crime in MAMA has fallen significantly. In the past there were more than thirty home burglaries annually. After this program was instituted this decreased by 50-80%. We have compiled our annual crime statistics starting in 2019 with specific data for each street in MAMA. Interested MAMA subscribers/members can request this data by emailing us at security@mamahouston.org.
- Decreased time for emergency responses
Although there is a deputy constable patrolling our area 40 hours a week if emergencies occur after hours or if 911 is called a constable will arrive and, many times, will arrive earlier than HPD. The constable will also arrive sooner than HPD for alarm issues.
- Vacation Watch
Subscribers can also sign up for vacation watch where the deputy constable will check on your residence while on patrol. This service is offered through the Precinct 1 website and is for subscribers only.
- Signage
Subscribers will receive a yard sign to be placed in the front of their house letting the constable know they have supported the program
- Neighborhood disruption Intervention
Unfortunately, this year there have been several disruptions to the peace and quiet of our neighborhood due to Airbnb’s, a drug house, speeding and failure to obey stop signs. The security managers and board members worked with HPD, the constables and property owners to mitigate/minimize these issues with good success. Additionally every 4-6 weeks the security managers meet with constables to review and address issues which has strengthened this program. If there are issues in MAMA that you want us to address, please email us at
