Useful Numbers for Code Compliance

If you notice a violation or a problem with code compliance you should do two things:

1. Contact an HOA Board Member with the details (villagesofchisholmridge@gmail.com), and
2. Contact the appropriate city division to report the problem

Taking both actions will help resolve the issue faster.  Here are a few handy numbers that I had found in my water bill that might be helpful to find the number you need to call.  There are many other helpful numbers, links and news articles at the Fort Worth City website.  (http://fortworthtexas.gov/)

Lawn Tips for a Green Yard

Tip #1: Spectrazied Weed Stop for Lawns for the Bermuda Grass formula is great for the grass.  It's applied with a garden hose and the Henbit weeds will be wiped out.  It's easy to get rid of but untreated it will take over the grass and kill the lawns. Let it set for a week then lay down new seed to fill in the bare spots.  

Tip #2: Large bags of used coffee beans from Starbucks is a great use of fertilizer.  

Tip #3: Ironite from Home Depot or Lowes comes in a big bag and applied to the grass will give them the extra neitrition needed to help grow thicker and greener.  

Tip #4: If you're mowing your back yards, it's best to mow at dusk so that it heals overnight and doesn't burn out.
