Watters Texas Neighborhood Coalition (TNC) Warns of Impending Threat to Single-Family Neighborhoods in 2025 Legislative
Session
|
|
|
TNC is sounding the alarm that 2025 Texas legislators could remove zoning powers from local governments and eliminate
single-family neighborhoods statewide. TNC emphasizes that only locally elected officials who are intimately connected
to their communities can make intelligent zoning regulations. Read more HERE..

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.

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
