a message from murphy’s law:

Beginning Monday, June 16th, turning left off N. Murphy Rd into the northern PSA driveway will be a no-no.

That is, unless you want to meet these guys (or the business end of an insurance claim).

Also, if you are looking for a great police Facebook page to follow, we just happen to have one that is serving up great information with a side of sass.

Re-roof

A re-roof permit isn’t just paperwork it’s protection. When a roof is replaced, things like vent pipes, flashing, and fire safety components can be disturbed Pulling a permit ensures a city inspector checks that everything’s still safe and up to code No missed gas vents No surprise leaks If a contractor says you don’t need one? �� That’s not just sketchy it’s dangerous.

Fences - Construction & Repair

Building or replacing a fence? Before you start digging post holes like you're planting a flag on the moon, stop and call 811 It's free, it's easy, and it makes sure you’re not about to hit gas, electric, water, or other buried utilities A fence permit also ensures you're not building on your neighbor’s property, over easements, or breaking setback rules. Basically: it keeps your project legal, safe, and drama-free If your contractor shrugs it off? �� Time to find one who actually knows what they're doing

water heater

Replacing your water heater? This isn’t a “just swap it out” kind of job. A permit is absolutely required and for good reason. We're talking gas lines, pressure relief valves, ventilation… aka stuff that, if installed wrong, can lead to leaks, explosions, or carbon monoxide buildup A permit triggers an inspection to make sure everything’s installed safely and up to code If your installer says, “You don’t really need one”? �� Nope. You need a pro who’s licensed, legit, and not cutting corners where it counts.

AND THE SURVEY SAYS...

Updates on things you mentioned in our recent survey

COMMUNICATION

“I checked a number of positive elements but honestly, i have no idea about whats really going on in the city, until it happens....There doesn’t seem to be a centralized way to communicate effectively with residents for everyday news....”

We are always looking for ways to communicate, in ways the community wants to be connected with. if you have ideas or suggestions, please drop us an email! socialmedia@murphytx.org

WALMART/MURPHYRD

A few years ago we revamped the cross access between the walmart and lowes shopping centers on north murphy road. We received several comments about how this has helped with accidents and we’ve noticed too!

several people mentioned they appreciate the hike/bike trails throughout the city, and some asked for more walkability.

if you see a need for a walking path, drop us a line/request via murphy connect!
