Eagle Ridge Owners Association

If you are planning a yard sale, this weekend (Saturday, April 29) is a great time to do it! Each home is responsible for their own publicity and directions to their house. We encourage you to post on Nextdoor, Facebook Marketplace, and wherever else you like. Happy sales!

ARCHITECTURAL COMMITTEE MEMBERS NEEDED! With recent changes to state legislation, the Eagle Ridge Owners Association has only one member on the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) and we need more to serve our neighborhood wisely and equitably.

Committee members only serve a few hours per month depending on the number of reviews requested. All requests for home modifications received by the ACC are reviewed based on EROA Bylaws, which are available on Eagle Ridge TownSq under Documents > ERH.GOV.xx.20131231.AmendmentofRulesandRegulations.pdf.

If you are interested in becoming a member of the Architectural Committee, please send a direct message.

CONGRATUILATIONS!!! I presented the award today to Sherman and Janice Prim of 3722 Bird House Drive, Round Rock. Folks, I tell you it's worth a drive by just to see the front lawn! Newly laid this spring Zoysia grass is now the most lush green lawn I believe I've ever seen!! Sherman spent many hours preparing his yard for the sod by clearing the St. Augustine grass and leveling the turf. He said it was worth it but doesn't think he would undertake it again.
Janice's share of the landscaping adds the color that makes it so eye popping. I call it the wow factor. The little islands of plantings that are scattered about the yard puts color into the green Zoysia lawn. Very nice. I have a thing for little figurines and absolutely loved the frogs she has cleverly hidden in her plantings. She told me a lady from the neighborhood said yesterday, "I'll bet you win Yard of the Month " and the committee agreed!! The couple won the award in 2018 and certainly have done a great job of maintaining their yard. Congratulations and Thank you for making Eagle Ridge a beautiful place to live.

Congratulations to Roger and Paula Hall for being selected as July 2021 Yard of the Month's recipients! Their residence is located in the newest area of Eagle Ridges Owners Association at 3732 Ram's Horn Way.
The pictures I have posted of their backyard tell it all. Paula is the gardener in the family but as they so kindly walked me around Roger knew names of the plants and would add little comments about Paula's work so it was obvious to me that it was still a team effort. The willow tree in the back yard with the bell shaped blossoms was my favorite. It blooms all summer and had a very pleasant scent. The walkway picture with the carpet of Bermuda grass lined with greenery on both sides is something right out of the movies. I could easily see someone getting down on their knee in that area and no, not to tie their shoe, ha! I've asked Paula to provide a little more detail about her plantings for those of us that would like to add something to our own landscaping. She described her plants and her reasons for using them where she did and I thought a short tutorial by her might be useful to some amateurs like myself. I will add that on a later post.
Thank you Roger and Paula for inviting me into your home and taking time to show me around and also for the very pleasant chat we had. It was a special morning for me. Also for making our community beautiful.
