Thank you to the residents that participated in the Environmental and Maintenance Committee Meeting Thursday evening. Here is a recap of the agenda and discussion items addressed by the committee.


Maintenance Team Update:

• Eleven native Redbud trees have been planted, replacing dying dogwoods. Nine of the eleven at the Hull Street entrance and three in the Resource Protection Area (RPA).

• Leaves - cleanup continues throughout Woodlake.

• The team was involved in the prep and take-down for the Fall Festival, and will be doing the same for the December 3 Santa's Market Square Event.

• Two Memorial Bench requests are being executed with a couple more in the pipeline.

• The team installed all of the holiday lights for the season.

• Beachwood Point's Stop-a-While permit has been obtained, and renovations are underway. Next up, the East Wast Stop-a-While will be scheduled for removal. This Stop-a-While will not be replaced.

• The team will be power washing the pool deck at the AFC Friday, December 2.

• Jim Eyerly, Director, Facilities and Grounds, noted that the Community Cleanup ends this weekend. Committee members shared feedback and comments noting that this year's process was outstanding. Having the month-long window worked very well and was well received. Jim added, that over 2000 cubic yards of debris has been collected at the SRC location. Hopefully this will contribute to less debris in the common areas.


Agenda Items Recap:

Planting potted trees from Santa visit. The committee discussed potential locations for the evergreen trees donated to Woodlake from the tree decorating event that is part of the big Santa event December 3.

IN THE COMMUNITY

Welcome Home Woodlake's

Staff Sergeant Jake Locas!


Staff Sergeant Locas has spent over a year serving our country in Baghdad. Jake has served in the Army National Guard since 2010. He had to leave behind a

2 month old daughter and his newlywed wife Jessica when he deployed.


Jake's friends and neighbors would like to invite you to Village Square Parkway @ Manor Gate, Saturday December 3 for his homecoming. Parking will be available in Millwood.


They are hoping to have him there between 6-7pm. Everyone is welcome to show support for his surprise homecoming. We hope to see you.

Utility Work Taking Place, Equipment Being Staged

Woodlake residents, if you see equipment and materials placed within our community, work will begin in the near future. At this time, the WCA does not have the details as to the scope of the work. We received a few calls asking about the equipment and potential impact on landscaping. We have inquired about the work taking place and are waiting on a response.

A Note from

Our Neighborhood Schools


For the safety and security of staff and students:

We ask residents to be mindful of school hours and to stay off school grounds and playground areas during the school day.


In addition, when visiting school grounds outside of school hours, please ensure pets are leashed.


Thank you for your cooperation in making Woodlake

an awesome and safe community.

Girl Scout Cadette Troop 5477 is collecting children's books at the AFC that will go to local nonprofits that support childhood literacy. There is a collection bin in front of the pool and we accept new and gently used children's books. We appreciate your contribution.

Please be mindful of your speed as you travel the roads in Woodlake. Please slow down when you see Woodlake Maintenance vehicles and Team Members working along the roadside.
