HACKBERRY CREEK RESIDENT UPDATE!
July 13th, 2022

The temperatures continue to soar here in DFW so we hope you are staying cool and enjoying the sunshine! While you are inside enjoying the A/C, take out a moment to check out our new homeowner forum on the community website. We have added 3 categories for residents: A homeowner referral section where you can ask for or provide recommendations for contractors in various trades, a lost pet forum, and a Q&A section for the Village Manager. They are brand new without comments yet but the more people who use the forum the more robust it will be and a great source of information!

Other info in this mid-week update includes...

  • Homeowner Poll - City Trash Services - Please Take The Poll!
  • Street Work - Final Construction, Clean Up, Landscaping and Repairs
  • Southern Oak Park and Village Greens NOW OPEN
  • Schedule Your Free Irrigation Check
  • Leash Law Reminder
  • Board Meeting Next Week
  • Food Truck Menu

Enjoy the heat and have a great rest of your week!

PETS MUST BE LEASHED AT ALL TIMES
The city's leash law makes it illegal for animals to be at large (running free, unrestrained) within the city limits, even with an owner present (unless inside the city's dog park). Dogs must be restrained using a properly fitted leash, chain, collar, or harness that is being held by the owner at all times.

If you see a pet/animal without a leash or if you see any type of animal that you feel poses a threat to your safety please call Irving Animal Services at 972-721-2256 and/or the Irving Police Department immediately.
If you witness a dangerous act by an animal, the City of Irving has an affidavit you can fill out to report. Go to: https://www.cityofirving.org/146/Codes-and-Forms

You can find the entire City of Irving animal code here.
SOUTHERN OAK PARK & VILLAGE GREENS
NOW OPEN
Both Village Greens and Southern Oak Park work has been completed. Southern Oak Park had the gazebo re-stained and the playground shade canopy pressure-washed. Village Greens had all woodwork re-stained, concrete playing surfaces re-painted, sidewalks caulked and the stamped concrete walkways sealed. The fountain and waterfall is turned off until repairs can be made and cleaned.
STREET REPAIRS WRAPPING UP
The street contractors have completed all concrete pours and sidewalk repairs in the neighborhood. Over the next week they will be doing dirt / sod work in areas along concrete replacements in all locations where needed as well as address any sprinkler issues. They will do a final walk-thru as a team, then the Village Manager will conduct a walk with the engineer to confirm everything has been addressed late next week. Sealing of concrete joints will be done tomorrow and Friday.
FREE IRRIGATION CHECK BY THE CITY!
The City of Irving offers an irrigation checkup as a courtesy to all residential home owners. Upon your request, one or more representatives of the City of Irving Water Department will schedule and conduct an investigation of your irrigation system and notify you of any leaks or problems that are detected. Follow-up repairs or modification will be the responsibility of the homeowner. Department staff will provide coaching on the cycle-soak method.
FOOD TRUCK THURSDAY - 5PM to 7PM
AT SOUTHERN OAK PARK
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us!
