Bluebonnet Highlands

Hi there - my fiance and I are out of town this weekend and our cat sitter accidentally let our cat out of the house. He’s an orange and white cat, named Robert and probably very skittish.

If anyone spots him they can call my number 952-270-7554

We were saddened to hear that a BBH resident was spotted dumping something into a storm drain on the Fairhill side of BBH during this past holiday season.

The City makes it abundantly clear that storm drains are for rainwater only: https://www.brla.gov/2016/Storm-Drain-Dos-and-Donts

Please take three minutes to watch this informative video on why it is so detrimental to allow anything other than rainwater into our storm drains: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5CmJqd-7Ik

Local ordinances regarding storm drains can be found HERE (https://library.municode.com/la/baton_rouge,_east_baton_rouge_parish/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=TIT2STALSIBASE_CH8STRE) and HERE (https://library.municode.com/la/baton_rouge,_east_baton_rouge_parish/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=TIT2STALSIBASE_CH8STRE_S2_362COSTSTGEDIPR)

Lastly, the City encourages its residents to say something if we see something. Improper use of storm drains can have detrimental impacts on our waterways, wildlife, and safety from flooding. They encourage citizens to call 3-1-1 or use the Redstick 3-1-1 app to report violations: http://311.brla.gov/

Thank you to the 962 of 1,104 homeowners who paid their dues in full in 2024.

Dues are critical to maintaining common areas and to continue to enhance our collective property values.

Our deed restrictions allow for an assessment of late fees and filing of a lien on delinquent homes. The Council waived this ability during COVID to provide relief to homeowners. However, due to the increasing outstanding balances of a few, the Council will reinstate this ability. The reinstatement will be effective January 1, 2025.

At that time, to be fair to all who have paid, late fees of 20%, per month, will be assessed on delinquent dues, in accordance with the deed restrictions. Additionally, a lien will be filed on homes with an outstanding balance in excess of an amount to be determined by the Council. The cost of filing the lien will be added to the balance due.

The reinstatement of late fees encourages accountability and fairness for all homeowners. This policy is not intended to be punitive, but rather to maintain equitable responsibility and ensure we can meet our community's needs consistently.

If you have an outstanding balance, please reach out to [email protected].
