ACC Fast Track Guidelines. Examples include:

• Repainting the same color does not require prior ACC approval.
• Repainting and changing colors does require prior ACC approval. 

 

‼️ At one time, DR Horton had all component and paint information for homes built after 2007, including paint colors, floor types and color, cabinet information, and more. DR Horton might still have this information. To find out, you can call the DR Horton Warranty Department at 512-345-4663.

 

Issues with the white picket fences in Association common areas (example: the fences facing AW Grimes that do not border a specific owner lot) should be reported to the management company by email with confirming information.

Fence issues should be reported by email with confirming information to their management company.

Fences that belong to an owner are the owner's responsibility. The Master Association has found a couple of vendors who claim to sell and service vinyl fences like ours. The Association has not used these vendors, so we are only sharing contact info.

 AusTex Fence and Deck was the original installer with DR Horton, and may still offer parts and repairs. Our experience is that they are expensive and slow.

 

‼️ The picket lengths and post specs for the Association fences along AW Grimes - 40 and 44" tall are probably different than yours. You’ll need to measure the pickets you are replacing so you can order the appropriate length. You’ll also want to confirm the distance from the top rail cutout to the top of the post and the distance between the upper and lower rail cutouts. Fences were installed over a 10-year period so there are likely to be differences in measurements. 

Per our Supplemental Notice of Dedicatory Instruments, Townhome owners are responsible for 100% replacement-cost insurance coverage.

 

It is common for attached units, like townhomes or condos, to be covered by the Association for the dwelling/structure. But that is not how we were organized by DR Horton.

 

The Master Association only purchases insurance for common areas. Townhome owners are required by our Governing Documents to carry 100% replacement cost coverage. This ensures that all units affected by a loss can be rebuilt.

Per Attachment 3: Solar Device Policy / Energy Efficient Roofing Policy of the Turtle Creek Village PUD Community Manual:

 

The Recreation Committee has tentatively set the last weekend in May and the first weekend in September for these. Spring and Fall... good times for cleaning out!
TCV Committees.

The committee usually posts the sale on the TCV FB page, NextDoor, our TCV Calendar, etc. They also hang banners on the fence near each main entrance on AW Grimes on the day of the sale.

 

Anyone can post ads or put up additional signs for your street to help promote the sale. A neighborhood garage sale benefits all who participate. 

 

TCV sections were built years apart, and include different home types. Some people host their sale in the garage and front-facing driveway.  Others host in their alley-side garage and parking pad. Whatever works best for your setup, but this means you may need extra signage to help shoppers find your home.

 

You are - of course - welcome to have your own sale anytime. Although, you might get more traffic on the group sale date.

 

Violations are frustrating for a couple of reasons.
Violations Process for more information about the process, including:

• Reporting methods
• Confirming information
• A process flow chart
• Notification and fine timelines

 

Hopefully this will help explain.  

 

When a suspected violation is reported, it has to be confirmed.
Report a Suspected Violation and Confirm a Violation.

 

After a suspected violation is reported, the management company and the Board cannot provide any status information to the reporting party, as violation information is part of the owner’s account. We cannot share one owner’s account information with anyone else. The only update we can provide is that the issue has been noted.  

 

Sometimes, violation letters are sent, and the owner just ignores the violation notice, until we get to the stage that gets their attention by imposing fines. Sometimes owners may contact the management company about special or extenuating circumstances. In those instances, the Board has to work with the owner to resolve the issue. All of this happens without any information given to the reporting (and definitely frustrated) party. 

 

Once a violation reaches the fine stage, we are required to send notifications by Certified Mail. Some owners think if they ignore the certified notice on their door, they can claim that they were never notified. Once the Post Office makes the first certified attempt, the attempt is recorded and maintained with the Post Office tracking service. Texas Property Code considers the recorded delivery attempt adequate proof that the owner was notified. 

 

Texas Property Code also requires that we offer an owner a “reasonable amount of time” to correct a violation. Vague much? Meanwhile, the notification process keeps going. Unless the owner cures the violation, the reporting party thinks that nothing is being done. That is not the case. The violation and notification cycle continues, but it often takes multiple letters and fines (happening in 2-week intervals) for an owner to cure the violation. 

 

To summarize, the Association and management company addresses violations as quickly and aggressively as Texas Property Code allows. It just never happens as fast as owners would want, and we definitely understand the frustration.

 

Violations Process.

 

Street trees are the trees between the sidewalk and the curb, and they belong to the owner. Street trees are required by our PUD contract with the city, so removal requires replacement. 

 

Section 7.04 (d) of our Declaration for information on irrigation and maintenance of street trees. When referring to maintenance, routine maintenance includes replacement when needed.  

 

Section 7.04 (b) of our Declaration for the list of suitable shade trees that are permitted. Additional tree species may be used with the approval of the City Urban Forester. Permission to remove and not replace a street tree also requires approval of the City Urban Forester.

 

Street Tree Replacement Resolution.

 

We have not found a list of approved yard trees in our Governing Documents. But the City of Round Rock has an approved list of trees.

Appendix B of the Tree Technical Manual: Standards and Specifications.

 

If a different species of tree is desired, the Board recommends choosing a tree that is already used in other TCV yards. If choosing a different species than the tree to be replaced, replacement requires prior approval from the Architecture Control Committee.

ACC – Committee and Process.

 

• General inquiries.
• Road striping and issues.
• Street signs.
• Traffic signals.

• Potholes and paving.
• Street and drainage issues.

‼️ Service requests related to streets, signs, lights, signals, curbs, sidewalks, paving, and drainage should be submitted to the City online or using the RRTX Mobile App.

Other important contact numbers and links can be found on the Round Rock Customer Service Directory.

 

Although our Governing Documents mention pets and waste, these are also Code Enforcement violations. You will get a faster response from the City, and the owner is likely to respond quicker to the City, than the Association.
 
Noise and pet sanitation fall under Code Enforcement and can be reported:

• Online.
• On the RRTX Mobile App.
• By telephone to the Code Enforcement office at 512-341-3329.
• By telephone to the RRPD non-emergency line at 512-218-5500.

 

If an issue is addressed in our Governing Documents and is not a Code Enforcement or police issue, it should be reported to the management company with confirming information.
