A Volunteer Application Form must be completed and submitted to the city.

Murphy Farms will be sponsoring some type of event from our HOA all TBD.

Recycling

Click on this link: http://www.murphytx.org/services/
recycle.asp for more information about the new recycling bins and
program by Waste Management. Remember all green trash containers and
gray recycling containers need to be screened from view from the
street on non trash days. Do not place the trash cans in the street
on Thursday, trash day before 4:00pm and must be removed by noon on
Friday.

Murphy Farms Calendar

Please check the Murphy Farms web site calendar for HOA events and events listed by homeowners.  Homeowners can send information to Sandi Whisenant our web editor to add events for all homeowners or ladies to attend, items for sale, lost pets, contractor referrals, and put your business card on the web site for services offered by residents.

Website Submissions

Submissions to the web site: Items for Sale or for Free, Company/Contractor Referrals, Lost or Found Pets and Services Offered by Residents now require that you complete the form on each page and then submit to Sandi to add to the web site. Unfortunately, this is due to spammers who have put non HOA items on these pages. Sorry that this makes it more difficult for you the homeowner, but it does keep the integrity of our HOA site.
 

National Night Out

National Night Out in Texas for 2008 will be Tuesday, October 7 from 6-8 pm. The theme is "Give Crime a Going Away Party". Past years our HOA has held a cookout/swim party, but the event was in August. Texas decided to change the date this year due to the summer heat. Police and fire departments will come and visit each neighborhood.

A chair person and volunteers are needed to plan and execute this event for Murphy Farms and the Board has allocated funds for this event. Please contact Virginia at pres@murphyfarms.org if you would like to volunteer.

ACC News

If you are replacing and/or upgrading your fence an ACC request needs to be filed. Also, if you are going to add Solar Screens you will need to submit an ACC request. Solar film on windows does not require an ACC request. If you have any questions before you start a project, please call or email ACC chairman, Patrick Tiner (make this the ACC link so it goes to his home email). You can find their contact information and all the forms on the Murphy Farms website under ACC. The ACC meets every 2 weeks, so please allow plenty of time to submit your request prior to the start of your project.

Street Light Outages

Is there a street light out near your home?  If so, Oncor has an online form that you can submit to report the outage.  Please allow 15 business days for the repair to be completed before contacting Oncor again.
