It’s S.T.A.R. (Sad Trees Along Road) season, when local “residents bring whimsy and holiday cheer by decorating trees along public roads,” the city of Highland Village said in a statement on Monday.
Local cities and towns are asking residents to follow some rules before they participate:
- Choose a tree in a safe location, and be cautious when crossing streets
- Avoid roads managed by the Texas Department of Transportation, such as FMs 407, 2499 and 1171, and Hwy 377
- Ask permission before decorating a tree on private property
- Follow all HOA rules
- Use decorations that are not dangerous to wildlife, and make sure they are attached securely
- Clean up all decorations by Jan. 3
