Hi Neighbors!

Here’s The Latest Shannon Ridge News: 

1.  Sign up for the Shannon Ridge Garage Sale, Saturday, March 3, 8:00 AM – 1:30 PM: 

If you haven’t already signed up, please provide your name, address, and phone number. 

 To indicate your participation to customers on the day of the sale, you can place balloons at the front of your property.  When the sale is over, please help keep our community looking good by placing all unsold items back in storage, out of sight of your neighbors and visitors, and dispose of all litter, balloons, and refuse on the roadside and on your property.  If it rains on March 3, it will be held on Saturday, March 10.   

2.  Spring cleaning – for your lot:  Spring is a great time to spruce up your property.

     a. Storage of materials such as stone, tile, bricks, cinder blocks, lumber, pipes, and metal:  Unless you are actively engaged in a construction project that is proceeding without delay, these items must be stored so that they are not visible from any road.   

     b. Maintenance of structures including sheds, dog houses, garages, and other outbuildings:  This is a great time to make necessary repairs and give them a fresh coat of paint.  

     c. Unfinished construction:  If you have begun construction of a structure, please finish it so that it is of neat appearance. 

     d. Waste concrete, stone, brick, and ceramic tile:  These items can be dumped, for free, on the “Fill Wanted” lot at the intersection of Hwy 181 and CR 131 just south of Ewald Tractor. 

     e. Metal of all kinds:  Metal can be sold for cash at a salvage company such as Ashley Salvage (210-922-7631) at 4918 Roosevelt Ave, San Antonio, TX.  If you are not concerned about the cash, small amounts of metal can be taken to JP’s Automotive (830-393-2318), 511 10^th St, Floresville, TX, and placed on their back patio to be hauled away with their scrap metal. 

     f. Litter, refuse, and junk:  Much of this can be disposed of in your trash.  If you have a large amount of refuse and junk, you can haul it to the Wilson County landfill (830-393-0085) or call one of the following waste disposal companies to make arrangements to have them haul it away for you:  Tiger Sanitation (210-333-4287), Towerlake Disposal (210-636-8354), or Waste Management (866-729-6476). 

     g. Vehicles:  All vehicles in our subdivision must be operative and have current registration and safety inspection.  Yellowpages.com lists several companies that will pay you and haul away junk vehicles.  If you have an inoperable vehicle that you are planning to repair or restore, the restrictions require that it be kept inside an enclosed garage (with the door shut) or within an enclosure (such as a privacy fence) to completely shield it and equipment, tools, parts, supplies and materials from the view of the public and your surrounding neighbors.  Semis are strictly forbidden.
 

3.  Need help cleaning up your lot?  My wife, Janelle, and I welcome the opportunity to help you.   Just contact me below.

4.  Many thanks to:

     a. All of you who do such a great job keeping your property well maintained and attractive.  We are very blessed to have so many conscientious property owners. 

     b. Judy Fuege for organizing the upcoming garage sale.
 

5.  Please join us so we can continue to keep Shannon Ridge a great place to live.  Annual dues are still only $50.   Please take a moment to write a check to Shannon Ridge HOA and fill out the form below.  To save you the trouble of mailing them, don’t hesitate to call me, and I will gladly pick them up!  Or you can give me your check when you see my wife, Janelle, and me picking up trash along our roads.

Thanks so much for your support!
