The monthly Water’s Edge Board of Director's meeting as well as future ARC meetings will not be held in person until further notice. This change is for the safety and health of all participants. The Board and ARC will meet monthly via video and/or audio conference at their usual dates and times.
Please be assured that the Board and SCS will continue to manage the HOA's operations and continue to work issues and projects as best possible under the Governor's Executive Order #55 Stay-At-Home Order. The aRC will continue to review exterior aplications and assist homeowners in projects.
If as a homeowner you have a critical need to attend a Board meeting, please contact Anastasia Demos, our Community Manager at 703-631-2003 or via email at ademos@scs-management.com and let her know the specific issue or question you have. If necessary and possible, we will attempt to conference in the homeowner or address the issue offline.
If you need the ARC's assistance, have questions or need advice on an exterior project, please contact them at WatersEdgeARC@gmail.com.
Additionally, weekly trash (Mondays and Thursdays) and recycling (Mondays) will continue as normal. However, all special "bulk" pick-ups of large items, appliances, furniture, and other items has been discontinued by American Disposal Service, until further notice.
Please DO NOT place large items curbside. Please take them to the I-66 West Ox Recycling and Transfer Station across form Costco Plaza or contact a private trash hauler such as 1-800-GOT-JUNK to remove the items.
Please watch this web page for updates and additional information regarding Board meetings or other HOA news.

Trash & Recycling Containers
Help Keep Water's Edge Looking Great
Since the HOA provided all residents with the new larger covered trash and recycling containers, trash from blowing winds and unsecured trash and recycling around our community has decreased dramatically. Yet on windy days, trash containers still get blown over causing tops to open and wind picks up items and scatters them all over the community.
So we ask that you always:
- Secure the lid of trash containers.
- Never overload containers so they can’t be closed.
- Break down all boxes and place them in your recycling container.
- Place Styrofoam packaging in your trash container, not next to your container.
- Please remember that trash and recycling may not be placed curbside before 6:00 pm the night before pick-up. On collection days, residents need to place their trash and recycling at the curb before 6:00 am.
Containers must be removed from the street and stored out of site by 8:00 pm on collection day. The storage of totes or bins in the front of a home, in your driveway or on the side of your home is not allowed.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping Water’s Edge clean and beautiful.
Guest Parking...
We ask all residents to please be a good neighbor and fully utilize all of their private parking spaces - their garage and driveway first, before parking their cars in our limited number of guest parking spots.
Taking up a parking space with it's not absolutely necessary, can result in someone having to carry groceries much further in the rain, make seniors or disabled guests walk further to visit residents, or parents to carry infants further than needed. Plus, it's the neighborly thing to do.
We thank you for your neighborly cooperation.

Volunteer to Help |
|
The Association is looking for several volunteers for help out on a couple committees:
- Architectural Review (ARC)
- Landscaping and Grounds
- Social
- Website & Newsletter
The community needs a couple people for the ARC and the Landscaping and Grounds Committee to keep our community looking good and property values high. It's also tough to create a "sense of community" without getting to know your neighbors so a social Committee is needed to help people get out and meet their neighbors on a social basis, plan a few friendly events and get people involved. And lastly, the website and expanded newsletter won't create itself without a few volunteers for the Website and Newsletter Committee helping write and edit our resident communications.
If you would like to volunteer for a committee, and WE NEED YOUR HELP. Please use the Contact Us form and send your message directly to the specific committee. You may also complete the Committee Volunteer form and submit it directly to SCS. The form is located on the Forms & Documents page.
