Updated Bridle Path Cleanup Process
Due to the new Bulk Trash pickup from the City of Phoenix, a new Bridle Path Cleanup Policy has been approved by the Board, effective 10/1/2024. Please note the change is regarding the notification timeline and process – the specifications for the bridle path clearing remain as they have been for decades:
It is the homeowner’s responsibility to maintain the bridle path in a manner that allows irrigators to easily access the irrigation valves, that does not cause damage to the District vehicle, and that does not pose a hazard to employees. As a standard, homeowners should remove vegetation in the bridle path in excess of 6 inches in height and any that protrude more than 6 inches from the fence line. Overhanging branches less than 13.5 feet in height must be removed.
Properties not in compliance with the stated standards will be identified for cleanup to be done by a commercial company, and property owners will be billed for the service provided. The homeowner will receive a notification giving 3 weeks notice prior to the cleanup being performed and they may be billed up to $500 for the cleanup (ARS 48-2978.13 & 17A, ARS 45-454) There will be no further notices. If the homeowner cleans up their bridle path prior to the end of the 3 weeks, they must notify the Irrigation District at (602)938-8760 or manager@sbfidphx.com to prevent the commercial company from incurring a trip charge.
For bridle path blockages that create an emergency condition, the Board will determine the course of action.
