Avalon Terrace HOA asks council to approve funding agreement for perimeter-fence project

Representatives of Avalon Terrace asked Pearland City Council to approve a funding agreement that would help the homeowners association replace aging perimeter fencing for HOA‑maintained green spaces.

Victoria Forsberg, vice president of the Avalon Terrace Board of Directors, told the council the neighborhood is undertaking an eight‑phase project to replace perimeter fencing and that the requested partnership is a one‑time opportunity made possible by the dissolution of Municipal Utility District 16 and Avalon Terrace’s annexation into the city effective Jan. 1, 2025. "This project has been a top priority for our community for years," Forsberg said. She asked council to support consent‑agenda item d, which she described as the next step to allow the HOA to stretch limited reserves and improve safety and appearance.

Council action: Council approved the consent agenda (items a through m, with item h pulled) by a vote of 7‑0. The transcript shows staff removed item h from the consent list after public comments; the remainder including the Avalon Terrace funding agreement passed on the consent calendar.

Why it matters: Forsberg said the funding agreement would allow Avalon Terrace to proceed with phased work beginning in August and would signal reinvestment following years of deferred maintenance.

Next steps: If implementation follows Forsberg’s timeline, the HOA will start the eight‑phase replacement in August. Staff and the city attorney were thanked by the speaker for work helping reach the funding proposal. The city manager and external affairs director were also acknowledged in the public comments; the council did not vote on additional funding beyond the consent approval tonight.
