PARKER COUNTY PCT 4 has informed the HOA Board that the county will be fog sealing the McDavid Estates roads starting this week and will continue into next week January 20th, 2026. Road work will follow the PCT 4 work week which is Monday - Thursday (Note: January 19 is a federal holiday observed by Parker County). 

 

FOG sealing is a protective coating applied to help prolong the life of the asphalt roadway. (Note: Some repairs/patching to roadway have been or will be made/completed prior to sealing.)

HOA election results - All 2025 board members were re-elected December 9, 2025, to serve another one year term beginning January 1, 2026. There was a total of 49 ballets received. A valid election requires a minimum of 45 members to vote. Of the 49 ballots, 47 were submitted via the provided email link and two were paper ballots. There were no write-ins.

 

The electronic email voting process makes voting fast and easy. We encourage all members to be sure that they have provided the HOA with their current email address. We hope that will help the HOA have an even larger voting turnout in future HOA elections.

 

Unfortunately, this has been a record year for deer and vehicle collisions on Hwy 5, as well as, within our subdivision. 

• To report dead animals for removal on State Hwy 5 - call TXDOT - at 682-229-2800.
• To report dead animals in the subdivision that are laying on the county road/right-a-way, call Parker County Precinct 4 at 817-596-0004 for free removal. 

(All roads in McDavid Estates are county roads.)

• If a deer dies on your property, you can call the Texas Game Wardens for Parker County at 469-797-5192 or 817-596-8814, they can provide you with contact information for “FEE BASED” removal services.

 

We continue to work on getting the HOA fence repaired at the Hwy 5 and E. Bankhead Road intersection. Dealing with one of the insurance companies has proved difficult. But, we will be moving forward with clearing and cleaning up that area as part of our end of year HOA Hwy 5 fence line maintenance. UPDATE: Yet another vehicle has run off the road at this intersection on December 13! At the time of this writing, any additional damage to the fence has yet to be determined.

 

Finally, on behalf of the McDavid Estates HOA Board of Directors to all our members and their families have a safe and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

 

P.T. Wright

President, McDavid Estates HOA

 

As we welcome Fall and cooler weather, the Board wishes to inform the membership on recent board actions and HOA activities.

The first weekend of October saw the return of the Fall subdivision-wide garage sale. This event has returned at the request of numerous members and we hope that they had successful sales. The next subdivision wide sale will be the last weekend of April 2026. 

At the September Board Meeting several important topics were discussed and actions taken. 

            • “Fence line clearing” of the HOA’s Highway 5 fence, by the HOA’s landscaping crew, was approved. Clearing will include cutting, trimming and/or removal of vegetation which has grown within the fence line’s area during the year. Homeowners whose lots back to Highway 5, with vegetation that is growing in the fence line area should be sure to maintain that area to ensure that it does not encroach within the fence line as it will be subject to trimming or removal.

 

            • Repairs to the damaged HOA fence, at HWY 5 and Bankhead Rd, remain on hold as we continue to pursue reimbursement for damage from the insurance company of the second vehicle that crashed the fence. 

 

            • Funding was approved for two Parker County Sheriff’s Deputies to be on duty to patrol in the subdivision this coming Halloween Night.  

 

            • December 9, 2025, was chosen for the Annual Members Meeting and 2026 Board Election.  A notice was posted on the website on September 15th and sent to the membership via e-mail to solicit nominations for candidates for election to Board positions. 

 

            • A homeowner presented a petition to amend Covenant XVII, of the McDavid Estates Consolidated Reservations, Restrictions and Covenants, to allow the raising of chickens (hens only) and rabbits. Any changes to the HOA’s covenants must be submitted to the membership for a vote. The Board received the petition to verify that all signers were McDavid Estates property/homeowners. This review determined, that of the 40 collected signatures, three could not be verified using County tax rolls or HOA records as property owners. Since the petition failed to achieve the necessary valid signatures, the proposed amendment will not be presented to the membership for a vote.

We are looking forward to seeing many of you at the Annual Meeting December 9, 2025.  But, if you will not be able to attend be sure to vote by sending your electronic proxy vote, using the subdivision’s ballot drop box or mailing your paper proxy vote ballet. Voting instructions and information will be mailed, as part of your voter ballot packet, in November.

 

To all our members and their family, the Board wishes you a safe and prosperous Fall season!
