Recreational Vehicles (RV’s) and/or sports equipment [example: Trailered Boats, Trailered All-Terrain Vehicles (ATV), etc.] shall be parked in a garage or off-site. RV’s and sports equipment may be temporarily parked in the driveway or in the street directly in front of the home for loading and unloading only over a short a period of time not to exceed 24 hours, and not to exceed 7 days per calendar year.

Do you know the official rules for properly displaying the U.S. flag?

• Display the flag outside from sunrise to sunset. If you want to fly it after dark, it will need to be lit.
• Don’t fly the flag during inclement weather, unless it’s an all-weather flag.
• The union of the flag--the blue section with white stars--should be placed at the peak of the staff
• When the flag is displayed on a flat surface like a wall, the union should be at the top left.
• The flag should never touch anything beneath it, so make sure it’s hoisted at the proper height.
• Half-staff: During periods of mourning, it is common to see the flag flying at half-staff. Only presidents can proclaim such periods for a national remembrance. Governors can also declare mourning periods at a local level. Traditionally, states and local governments follow the president’s proclamation during a period of national mourning.
• Take care of your flag. Store your flag in a well-ventilated area. If it gets wet, make sure it’s completely dry before storing it.
• If the flag is damaged or worn out, it should be burned and disposed of with dignity.
  • The Veterans of Foreign War will take and properly dispose of American flags. The closest post is at 3613 Jeannine Drive (Near the intersection of Academy Blvd and Austin Bluffs Blvd). Outside the front door they have what looks like an old postal box where you can deposit worn out flags 24/7.

2.1.1      HOUSES PAINTING TRIM, ACCENT AND GARAGE DOORS ONLY
Residents painting the trim, accent and/or garage doors only are required to paint a small sample on the existing surface(s)

Please do not block any residential sidewalk with cars, RVs, trailers, trucks, visiting vehicles, etc. so pedestrians can navigate the neighborhood easily and safely. Many residents and visitors enjoy using the sidewalks daily and often have difficulties navigating around a sidewalk obstruction.  It can be dangerous if they are required to walk in the street and leave the safety of the sidewalk.

City Code prohibits the blocking of sidewalks.
10.12.101: STOPPING, STANDING OR PARKING IN SPECIFIED PLACES:
No person shall stop, stand or park a vehicle except when necessary to avoid conflict with other traffic, vehicular or pedestrian, or in compliance with directions of a police officer or traffic control device on a sidewalk or pedestrian walking area.

​Tree selection is one of the most important investment decisions a home owner makes when landscaping a new home or replacing a tree lost to damage or disease. Most trees can outlive the people who plant them, therefore the impact of this decision is one that can influence a lifetime. Matching the tree to the site is critical.
