SEcurity

Briar Village takes our security seriously. 

 For Security/Patrol Service we are contracted with  MJM Security. You may contact them directly at 832-356-3224. Program this number into your cell phone. 

Call 911 for Emergencies 24/7, and for non-emergency HPD at 713-884-3131.

Briar Village I.D. Stickers are periodically available for the back of your vehicles.  Watch the Newsletter for availability or check with Graham Management. This "Briar Rose" shows that you and your vehicle belong in Briar Village.

For security purposes, Briar Village does not encourage "outside" solicitors to solicit within the neighborhood. You can call MJM Security or HPD to report solicitors in the neighborhood.  You also have the right to request that any solicitor leave your premises and if they do not, it is a reportable offense.

BV safety is everyone’s job. 
Be Watchful and Alert.
If something doesn't look or feel right...Call and report it!
