Our contractor will be removing a Bradford Pear tree that is located on top of an irrigation leak on Saturday 9/10/22. The metal grate that the tree has fused to will also be removed. We will then be installing St. Augustine sod at a later date, after irrigation modifications are made. We expect the irrigation and landscape modifications to be completed by 9/16/2022. If you have any questions, please reach out to landscape@firstcolony.org.

Fort Bend County and the City of Missouri City will host an information session on Lexington Boulevard Reconstruction/Mobility Project September 12. Mark your calendar to join us at Southminster Presbyterian Church at 6:30 p.m.
