Brightwater Involvement

Brightwater needs its residents' input and involvement to help the Board make decisions that benefit us all. We have a number of upcoming projects that could use homeowners' opinions and feedback. And it would be great to get someone to report on the progress from the perspective of the neighborhood. If you have the inclination and time, please contact a Board member or come to a HOA monthly meeting. We are looking for short-term oversight, but long-term interest is welcome as well.

Feeding the Ducks

If you wish to feed the ducks, please do so only on the grassy areas and away from the Clubhouse, parking lot, sidewalks, pier and dock. This will provide a healthier environment for everyone by eliminating duck poop on the benches and walkways in our common areas used by many of our residents.  Thank you!  

 

Neighborhood Parking is Concern ... Don't Get a Ticket! 

Missouri City Police are concerned about the parking situation in neighborhoods. Emergency vehicles must have clearance turning onto streets, turning in cul de sacs and moving between parked vehicles. Personal vehicles will be damaged if blocking the way of emergency personnel. Be alert to these rules to avoid being ticketed by MCPD:

  • Always park 15 feet or more from a fire hydrant
  • Always park 20 feet or more from a corner with a traffic device (Stop Sign, etc.)
  • Always parallel park with your right tires to curb
  • Never park with your left tires to curb - It is illegal
  • Never park along a cul-de-sac esplanade - It is illegal
  • It is illegal to drive across the street and park in front of the mail boxes to get your mail (Parking left tires to curb is illegal even temporally)
  • Operable vehicles on public streets must be moved every 48 hours
  • Inoperable vehicles are not allowed on public streets - towed at owner's expense after given a 48 hour warning
  • It is illegal to park Boats and RV campers on the street for reasons other than unloading

MCPD urges citizens to park in their garage or driveway at night as a safety precaution. Avoid parking on the street as much as possible during the day to give full access to emergency vehicles. Park a safe distance from all corners to avoid meeting oncoming cars head-on. 

To report illegal parking or other illegal activities, contact Missouri City Police at 281-403-8700.

 

Note: Please Do Not Call "911" unless it is a Police Emergency.

 

Pick Up After Your Pet

webassets/BWpetsigns.jpgOver the years there have been a number of complaints regarding pet owners who walk their dogs on private and public property and do not pick up after them. Residents walking along the lake have had to be especially careful when stepping off the sidewalk to allow others to pass because of dog waste left by inconsiderate pet owners.

As a result, the HOA installed signs informing our residents that Missouri City ordinances require that (a) dogs be on leash and (b) pet owners must clean up after their dog.  Violations of these City ordinances carry fines of up to $500.  Please be respectful of others and pick up after your pet!
