Vehicle Parking - SidewalksSidewalks are designed and installed to provide pedestrians an area to walk outside of the roadway, keeping pedestrians and vehicular traffic separate. When someone parks their vehicle in a manner that obstructs a sidewalk, it causes a dangerous situation forcing pedestrians to walk in the roadway to get around. It is for this reason that the State and City have laws making obstructing a sidewalk illegal. It is also a HOA violation to obstruct sidewalks.
Vehicle Parking - Commercial Vehicles
Commercial Vehicles are not permitted to park in driveways in HPN. We define a commercial vehicle as having a gross combination weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 pounds or more; or a gross vehicle weight (GVWR) of 10,001 pounds or more; or is longer than 24 linear feet.

Lawncare Advice

July through January is the best time of year to trim back oak tree branches. City of Pflugerville ordinances require that trees must hang no less than 8 ft. above sidewalks and 14 ft. above the street. These ordinances ensure that recreational sidewalk use and emergency vehicle roadway use is not inhibited by tree growth or limbs.
Oak Wilt Disease Prevention The freshly-cut stumps of oak limbs should always be immediately painted with tree-wound dressing as a prophylactic measure against the spread of Oak Wilt Disease. Oak Wilt is spread by tiny wood-boring beetles that are attracted to the sap of oak trees. Fresh wounds on oak trees draw these beetles like porch lights draw moths.
In Texas, typically the best months to plant trees are October and November as the temperature is cool and the tree has time to establish before rigors of summer. When planting a tree, you might use tree wrap, supports and stakes. When planted, trees might benefit from wraps, support ties and poles to help the tree withstand wind and to help the growing tree's root system get established to support its rapid growth. A newly planted tree should be able to sway gently as root growth is established, the ties and supports should not be "TIGHT" around the trunk or to the support.
Do you know when to remove wraps and supports? As a tree strengthens over time, it is important that the ties are removed to avoid permanent damage to the tree. Most trees do not need supports after 6 months and practically never after two years. If not removed in time, a tree can grow over the wraps and ties which can strangle the tree, causing severe injury or even loss of the tree. Be sure to take care of your trees by properly trimming them and removing supports when no longer needed.
Broken limbs hanging over a sidewalk need to be removed immediately. Trees with over 90% dead branches with little or no live foliage visible during the growing season must be removed. Stumps need to be removed from sight by cutting level with the ground and covering with ground cover or removed with a stump grinder. HPN governing docs do not allow stumps to be used as yard art, planters or other purposes. A minimum of 2 trees must be maintained on your lot. If you need additional time to remove a stump or replant a tree, please email manager@hpnhoa.org to request an extension from the board.
