It's time to renew your CHPNA membership for 2025!
give some green to the entrance medians
CHPNA continues to renovate the three Jones-Maltsberger medians alongside our subdivision. These prominent grassy islands serve as the face of our neighborhood, but have been in dire need of a landscaping overhaul. You can help by donating the equivalent of a shrub or tree!

Jones-Maltsberger Improvements Underway
Overdue safety improvements for increasingly busy Jones-Maltsberger have been installed and more are coming. CHPNA began lobbying the Public Works Dept to fund the project long before a developer announced plans for the nearby 15 acre apartment complex.
The roadway was recently expanded to create a center turn lane enabling safer turning into our neighborhood. Motorists will no longer risk collision due to blocking traffic while waiting for an opportunity to turn left into Marquis, Coronet or Colwyn Pass. The remaining entrance street, Trafalgar, will receive a different type of improvement in 2026 specially designed to mitigate patron traffic from the AHISD Athletic Center adjacent to the Robbins School.
Jones-Maltsberger has seen increased traffic congestion from the new Allora at Alamo Heights apartment complex. City engineers mandated the facility's main entrance align with Colwyn Pass and a traffic light will be installed at the intersection in 2026.
Natatorium overflow parking to be alleviated
Voters overwhelmingly approved the AHISD bond on the May 2023 ballot which included funding to modify the Robbins School campus on Trafalgar. The district has purchased a large vacant lot bordering Ramsey which will feature a new softball field and significantly more parking for the entire sports complex. Crews broke ground on the softball park in early 2025 and will wrap up in 2027. The Robbins School building will then be demolished to make way for an additional parking lot, however this phase of the project may not commence until 2028.
CHPNA members enjoy free swimming
CHPNA members in good standing can enjoy complimentary admission to the new AHISD Natatorium on Trafalgar. Member households can swim in the beautiful 650,000 gallon pool as often as they like throughout the current year. It's just one more reason to be a CHPNA member. As a reminder, memberships expire
each December 31, so be sure to start or renew your household membership for the current year to gain access.
CPS CAN LIGHT UP YOUR DARK YARD, ALLEY OR STREET
Residences with with poorly illuminated exterior spaces can request CPS add a supplemental flood light. The utility's All Night Security Light program is a low cost way to brighten up dark yards, alleys and streets. CPS will install a LED flood light to one of its existing poles or install a supplemental pole where desired. The fixture can be either aimed at the owner's dwelling or parallel to a roadway, but not into the roadway itself.
There are no installation or equipment costs, however a monthly charge is added to the homeowner's bill. Most residences are able to add a 100W fixture to an existing pole for as little as $9 per month plus a minor increase in energy used. There is a 3 year minimum commitment and penalty for early termination. To learn more contact the ANSL manager CPS by calling 210-760-4768 or click on the application button.
