A Few Reminders
|
|
|
HOUSE NUMBERS: All homes within Watters Crossing have carved stone house numbers on the front elevation. It is recommended to trim and maintain adjacent
landscaping such that these numbers are visible from the street. Also, there are a significant number of homes within Watters Crossing which have had the house
numbers removed that were originally above the garage doors. These are extremely important to emergency vehicles in locating the correct property if they have to access
the home via the alleys. If you have a sliding driveway gate, your numbers on your garage may not be visible to the alley. House numbers then should be mounted on
your driveway gate. Rear house numbers are required by the City of Allen.
TRASH AND RECYCLE POLYCARTS: Carts must be stored in areas not visible to any street. This includes visibility between houses and through alley entries. If you can see
your polycart from any street, it is a violation of City of Allen code and your WCHOA Covenants. Guidelines are
HERE.
DOG STATIONS: Dog Waste Stations are located throughout Watters Crossing. It is both in your Covenants and in the City of Allen codes to pick up after your dog.

ACC Reminders Roof Replacement
|
|
|
All exterior improvements must be submitted to the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) for review and approval prior to any work commencing. This includes all roof replacements. Please
submit a Roof Replacement form from www.watterscrossing.com when planning on roof
replacement. Guidelines for Roof Replacement are located HERE.
The ACC does expedite roof reviews. Note that the most common roof color in Watters Crossing is typically referred to as "Weathered Wood".
Also, no contractor signs are permitted at any time in Watters Crossing. Installations of such signs will result in violation letters to the homeowner. We appreciate your help with this.

Trees and the Contractors who “Trim”
|
|
|
We would alert homeowners to use caution when selecting anyone to trim your trees. There are many groups driving the neighborhood offering the
service of “tree trimming”. Please ensure you research who you are using. Yes, you can get a lower price, but results can be a problem. Some
flags to look for:
- The contractor leaves all the limbs and debris from the trimming. The City of Allen requires that all contractors trimming trees remove
from the property all trimming and debris.
- The “trimming” results in stumps
- Limbs should be trimmed to natural joints. When stumps are left, typically the stub will rot back to the tree. This is usually
after it has sent out multiple suckers. The canopy of the tree is destroyed.
-
The overall limb structure is weakened, making the tree susceptible to ice and storm damage
