park dedicating. The park  was named in  honor of  her
late husband who was a former Mayor of the city of Kemah.  A  55 acre Kemah park is  planned  here

It is with great sadness that I must share with you that Frances Foster passed away
Wednesday evening.  Frances was the wife of James Foster, Kemah's third mayor, and the mother of Mark Foster, our local justice of the peace and municipal judge for Kemah and Clear Lake Shores.  Frances was born in west Texas but moved to Kemah shortly after high school where she met and married James Frances  worked for Jimmie Walker and later served as the court clerk for the City of Kemah.  My enduring memory of Frances will be her dry, pithy wit, of which Mark was frequently the target.  She will be greatly missed, especially by her buddies in the Kemah Kronies.  Please keep Mark and his family in your thoughts and prayers during this time.

 Real estate’s ‘dirty little secret’

‘Appraisal inflation’ a worry for housing experts

By Jane Wells
Reporter
CNBC
It is often referred to as “appraisal inflation” and it could be the dirty little secret of the housing industry.

The practice — when real estate appraisers bend the numbers to satisfy clients and stay in business — is a growing problem, according to real estate experts.


Dear Fellow Residents: 

Early voting begins in the Kemah City elections in about two weeks.  On this ballot will be the office of mayor, two council positions and a non-binding referendum on how you would like to see KCDC funds prioritized.  I believe this is a very important election that presents a fundamental choice about the future of our city.

Dr. Nora Janjan Professor of Radiation Oncology at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center on the left and Houston City Council Member Dr. Shelley Sekula-Gibbs  on the right were here to support Kemah Council members struggle to draw up a  smoking ordinance. Both  Doctors stressed the unacceptable risk to the public health smoking posed. No action could be  taken on the first reading. The ordinance if approved will resemble Houston's and could possibly be passed as soon as next council meeting. A proposal submitted by councilman Wayne Rast that would have gone a step further and eliminated smoking in  restaurant  bars too was rejected at this time.  Tim Anderson GM, Kemah Boardwalk and Berry Terrell, Owner T-Bone Tom's Restaurant and Backyard questioned the council about the final implementation and how it would work. Mr. Anderson also said most of these measures were already in place at the Kemah Boardwalk.
