WATERING VIOLATIONS
 

It is standard policy that when watering restrictions are not being followed, for the first violation, Ordinance Enforcement will send the resident a warning letter advising of the possible oversight of the watering restrictions.  The warning letter advises the resident if a second or third violation occurs, a citation will be issued.    

  

If a citation is issued for violating the watering restrictions two or more times, a mandatory court appearance is required and you will be assessed a fine plus court costs as set out in the schedule below:  

 

Second Violation: Citation and Fine of up to $250 plus Court Costs of $61.00  

 

Third Violation: Citation and Fine of up to $500 plus Court Costs of $61.00

 

ALL residents are encouraged to ensure that their sprinkler systems are set correctly to avoid notices and possible citations.  Please remember that if your system is unplugged or the electricity goes off, it will reset itself when turned back on and will need to be reprogrammed.  There will be no leniency for systems set incorrectly.

BRUSH/LIMB PICKUP SERVICE
limbs
City chipper crews will collect and chip brush trimmings every Thursday of each week. You MUST call the Public Works Department at (830) 693-2951 by 4 p.m. on Wednesday to get on the brush pickup list. 

City Chipper Guidelines:
Our crews will only collect brush and limbs at least one (1) inch in diameter and no larger than 4 inches in diameter. Brush trimmings less than one (1) inch in diameter should be bundled as below for pickup by Allied.

Trimmings from banana and palm trees, vines, rose bushes, pampas grass, oleander and other fibrous plants must be bundled as below for pickup by Allied. Such items cannot be chipped due to their fibrous nature.

Residents and property owners who contract or hire a third party to trim shrubs and trees shall require the contractor to dispose of all trimmings. This includes waste generated from lawn maintenance such as leaves and grass clippings.  Neither Allied Waste nor the city will be responsible for pickup.

Charges:  There is no charge for the first 15 minutes of chipping.  After 15 minutes, you will be charged $20 for each additional 15 minute intervals with a minimum $20 charge.

Please note that brush, leaves or trash cannot be temporarily or permanently stored or deposited on any public or other private property including the streets.

Allied Waste Guidelines:
Small brush trimmings, twigs, sticks (anything less than one inch in diameter) shall be bundled tightly with string or wire in a bundle, not exceeding 4 feet in length and 50 pounds in weight for each bundle for bulk pickup by Allied Waste.

The next Allied Waste bulk pickup day is Friday, March 28th then every other Friday thereafter.

*Neither Allied Waste nor the city will be responsible for brush pickup that is greater than incidental prunings and clippings. Incidental pruning and clippings is defined as minor trimmings from a normal household/lot cleanup as would be appropriate for a residential family home owner to do in a usual home garden operation.
