Keep Our Kids Safe
Our community’s streets have relatively low traffic and hopefully all drivers are ALWAYS driving slowly and carefully. Yet as the summer approaches and children are out of school, it’s more likely children will be at play in our community.
We ask you teach your children, especially the younger ones, NOT to play in the street and that young children are ALWAYS supervised by an adult. It only takes a second for a distracted driver and a preoccupied child to end in disaster or injury.
Good Neighbor Parking...
We ask all residents to please be a good neighbor and fully utilize ALL of their private parking spaces, including your garage and driveway BEFORE parking your vehicle in our limited guest parking spots. This way we always have enough spots for overflow parking of residents and guests. We thank you for your cooperation.
To help keep trash and recyclables from blowing around our community, please remember the follow recommendations:
- Do not bag your recyclable items; leave items loose in your tote. Bagged items will not get recycled.
- Remember, glass is no longer recycled in Fairfax County. You can recycle your glass at the I-66 Transfer station on West Ox Road.
- Do not overfill trash bins. Please only load totes so the top can fully close. Excess trash and recyclables can spill out and blow around the community. Save your excess trash for the next collection day.
- Patriot Disposal will not pick up large items that will not fit in the tote such as mattresses, furniture, large toys, etc. For pick-up of large or bulky items, contact Patriot (fee may apply) at 703-257-7100, or a junk removal service directly.
- Place your totes in the street, not on the area between the street and the sidewalk, with the silver handle toward the sidewalk.
- Remove your tote from the street by the end of trash pick-up day and store it out of site in your garage or backyard.
- If during inclement weather, holidays, etc., trash or recycling is not picked up, please store your tote out of site until the next scheduled pick-up date.
THANK YOU!

The problem of pet waste continues to be an issue in the community. Several owners have brought to management’s attention that dog walkers are allowing their pets to do their business on private lawns and driveways. This is necessitating homeowners and residents who do not even own dogs to pick up dog feces.
If you walk a dog, please be responsible and keep your dog from doing its business on private property. Direct the dog to a common area and, in any case, pick up your dog’s waste and dispose of in your own household trash.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Water’s Edge Board of Directors

Water's Edge News |
The summer season means vacations, kids out of school, and more open doors letting in fresh air. It also is signaled by an increase in crime and vandalism. Therefore, we are asking all residents to be extra vigilant this summer, by looking out for your neighbors and our the safety of our collective neighborhood.
If you witness a crime or other incident that appears to be a crime or vandalism, please report the incident to the Fairfax County Police non-emergency line at 703-691-2131, no matter how small the incident may be. Also let your neighbors know so that, if they have video surveillance of the incident, that can be shared with law enforcement. This way, we can all help the Police be more effective and help determine whether there are any patterns or trends in a neighborhood. Please also report all incidents to Anastasia Demos at SCS at admos@scs-management.com.
Collectively, we all have a stake in Water’s Edge safety and each of use has a responsibility to help maintain the safety and security of our homes and community.
