June 2009 Newsletter


See you at the Annual Meeting on July 9 at 7:00 p.m. RAIN DATE Saturday, July 11 at 10:00 a.m.

Next month, the Wood Hollow sub-division will hold its annual meeting at the gazebo on Thursday, July 9 at 7:00 p.m. with a rain date of Saturday, July 11 at 10:00 a.m. The current board members have each indicated a desire to continue in their respective roles.

The covenants allow any resident, in good standing, to run for office. All that is required is a letter of intent indicating your qualifications / credentials for the desired position. This letter should be mailed to the board no later than Wednesday, July 1. Should there be residents interested in running for an office, an election of officers would be held at the annual meeting.

I encourage residents to attend the 2009 annual meeting. It’s one way to meet with your neighbors and have face-to-face input with board members.

Hope to see you at the Annual Meeting! Best regards, Ellen

Need a Copy of the Covenants? The covenants for Wood Hollow are very simple but often times trying to get through the legal-ease and the numerous pages can be over-whelming. The board has abbreviated the covenants for easy reading. If you would like a copy, please contact
Dick Hayden at 1708 Sylvia Court or 770-682-1974.

As part of your yard maintenance, please maintain the sidewalk of your property so that the lower branches of the curb-side trees are cut so that passersby do not need to stoop under the branches or enter the street to continue on their walk. Likewise, trim any shrubs near or at the side walk.

----

County ordinance states that blowing yard waste (clippings and leaves) into the street or the storm drain or the retention / detention pond is not allowed.

The Wood Hollow BOD appreciates the cooperation of all residents in adhering to this ordinance.

----

Once again the board is asking for residents to not dump their grass clippings into the 50-foot buffer surrounding the sub-division.

These clippings will eventually suffocate the tree roots and the trees will die.

Please do your part to maintain our real estate.

----

The Gwinnett Fire Marshall’s Office has issued a total ban on all outdoor burning until September 30, 2009. For more information please visit www.gwinnettfiremarshall.com

----

If you smoke, please discard your cigarette butts in a proper receptacle and not your neighbor’s lawn or the street.

----

Due to lack of interest, the proposed April yard sale was canceled. We’ll try again next year.

----

It’s an unpleasant chore to pick-up after your own pooch; however it’s even worse to
pick-up after a neighbor’s dog.

When walking your dog, please pick-up their waste in a plastic bag and dispose of it in your trash.

Your neighbors will thank you.

----

The board has had some residents comment on their lack of having full use of the
sidewalk due to parked vehicles blocking their way. Please be mindful of not blocking the sidewalk with your vehicle.

----

Once again, the board hired an arborist to examine the condition of the trees in the buffer. Several trees were felled. Our insurance company has applauded our stand on this issue.
