Let Remington MUD 1 Hear Your Vote – [email protected] or scan the QR Code below

Due to a number of residents that have expressed interest in NEIGHBORHOOD RECYCLING, SG Owners Inc is working with Remington MUD 1 to evaluate a weekly curbside recycling service throughout Stonegate, Canyon Lakes, and Canyon Lakes Village.

If approved, further details will follow during implementation by the provider, and a small additional cost not to exceed $4 per home per month would be included in your water bill.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Please send feedback on this matter to [email protected] and be sure to include your name and street address, or scan the QR code below with your smartphone!

Currently we have received 746 “yes” votes, 158 “no” votes and 25 “other” votes.

Update on Recycling Please help us keep our community beautiful by NOT THROWING trash and debris into the lakes. In addition, there is NO SWIMMING,BOATING OR FISHING in the LAKES.

KEEP OUR LAKES CLEANLITTERING HURTS US ALL

Neighborhood appearance is a major concern when choosing a new home. Trash bins left on the street, vehicles in disrepair, yards left unattended all contribute the image we project as Stone Gate and Canyon Lakes West residents.

Take a look around your property and see if there's anything you could do to improve things. If you have a neighbor who is struggling to keep up with the physical demands of home ownership, see if you can help without sounding critical. One gesture will surely lead to another, and we will all benefit.

This is what neighborhoods are all about.

It is a deed restriction violation if your pets are not confined to a fenced backyard or within your home. They must not be allowed to bark all night or cause a nuisance to your neighbors. They must also be on a leash at all times when not in a contained environment. It is also the pet owner’s responsibility to keep ALL areas of the community FREE from pet debris when walking your pets. Please remember that cats must also be confined. Animal Control can be reached at 281-999-3191.

Stone Gate Community has had many loose dogs & cats lately. Please do your part to keep your animals safe and contained on your property.

Please Control Your Pets!

If you happen to come across vicious dogs, or ANY loose dogs of this nature, please contact your

local Animal Control at 281-999-3191. If you are familiar with the property address

the pets belong to, please feel free to submit

that information to PMG – Mike

Crahan "mailto:[email protected]"[email protected]– to pursue the deed restriction violation. Notification and ample time must be given to the owner to correct the violation prior to any further pursuit by the Association.

Remember that all pets should always wear a collar with ID tag! Pet owners should also consider pet microchips for identification in case your pet looses their collar/ID tag.
