SIGNIFICANT UPDATES FOR BRISTOL LAKES HOMEOWNERS

Please open each section below for important information.

NEW - SWA Vegetation Issue - 10/15/2026

Solid Waste Authority Vegetation Removal Issues as of 10/15/26 Impacting Bristol Lakes Homeowners

The Solid Wast Authority (SWA) has contracted Service Providers to provide Vegetation Removal services including residences in Bristol Lakes. As of 10/15/26, Bristol Lakes has had two Vegetation pick-ups by the new Service Provider. Unfortunately, the Service Provider apparently utilized a “claw” type device to pick up the vegetation which scraped and marred some driveways.

Vegetation, Refuse Removal and Recycling services are NOT services provided by Bristol Lakes HOA contracted Service Providers.

If your driveway was and/or is damaged by the Vegetation Removal Service Provider, please call SWA directly at 561-697-2700 to report the damage. SWA responsively advised that they will send a representative to examine the damage and will follow-up to deal with the situation. SWA further advised that they are proactively addressing the issue and exploring alternatives. SWA suggested that vegetation be left on the grassy swale rather than on driveway hard surfaces.

Please do not contact Bristol Lakes’ Property Management company or HOA Board Members regarding this matter.

Trash & Waste Collection

EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1, 2026

Please be advised that the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County (SWA) has posted changes to the pick-up schedules impacting Bristol Lakes Homeowners. Bristol Lakes is in Service Area 3. For more detailed information, please visit the SWA website.

PER THE SWA WEBSITE:

Garbage Collection Days: WEDNESDAY & SATURDAY mornings.

All garbage must be placed inside the SWA garbage cart provided by the contracted waste hauler.
Any garbage bags or other loose household debris placed outside of the cart will not be collected and must be placed inside the cart for collection on the following scheduled service day.
Place the garbage cart in front of your own home. Remember: The cart handles face your house, and the arrows on the lid face the street.
The cart should be within 6 feet of the roadway and at least 3 feet away from obstructions, such as additional SWA carts, recycling bins, mailboxes, fire hydrants, parked cars, yard waste piles, low-hanging tree limbs, etc.

Recycling Collection Day: WEDNESDAY mornings.

Not all items are accepted for recycling. It is important to only place accepted items into the recycling bins.
For more information, please visit SWA website.

Vegetation & Bulk Collection Day: SATURDAY mornings.

Service area 3 has a vegetation limit of 12 cubic yards or less of yard waste curbside per week.
Place bulk items like appliances, furniture and large household items that do not fit in the SWA cart at the curb.
Make sure nothing is stacked on top of water or gas meters, under low branches or utility wires or within 3 feet of mailboxes or fire hydrants.

Additional Pickup Guidelines

Some residents may find they need a second cart. Second carts are available from SWA for purchase at a one-time cost of $85.
Residents will not incur any additional SWA collection or disposal charges for the second cart.

For additional information please contact SWA Customer Information Services at 561-697-2700

Retention Ponds (a.k.a. Our Lakes)

The Bristol Lakes Retention Ponds (previously referred to as “The Lakes”) are considered Aberdeen property and are maintained by the Aberdeen Property Owners Association (POA).

The POA has repaired and updated the west retention pond fountain and electrical systems.
The fountains in both Bristol Lakes Retention Ponds will be operating daily from 9am to 11pm. All Aberdeen fountain operating hours have been modified by the POA.

Snakehead Fish have been observed in the Bristol Lakes Retention Ponds and are a significant threat to our Retention Ponds and the inhabitants of the Ponds.

Snakehead Fish should NOT be released back into the Ponds if caught. DO NOT transport these fish alive.
Photograph the Snakehead Fish and report the sighting to the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) Wildlife Alert Hotline at 888-404-FWCC (888-404-3922) and/or submit a tip at MyFWC.com/WildlifeAlert .

Fishing and other activities ARE NOT RECOMMENDED in the Bristol Lakes Retention Ponds from March thru May due to the presence of Cottonmouth Snakes (Agkistrodon piscivorus), also widely called the water moccasin. These venomous semi-aquatic pit viper snakes are hazardous to humans and should not be released back into the Retention Ponds.
