BWP HOA Board Major Accomplishments:
The board members are always working behind the scenes to improve and maintain the integrity of our neighborhood.
Our primary goal is to be good stewards of the HOA finances in hope to maintain our property value.
Some of our major accomplishments and pictures are listed below:
Landscaping
Improved the appearance by having sod planted in the front entrance in places where there was dirt.
Installed 'stay off the grass' signs in strategic locations to deter vehicles from parking on the grass.
Spearheaded an investigation with Clayton County Water Authority due to BWP HOA rising water bills. A new sprinkler system was installed due to outdated underground pipes leaking.
Reduced landscaping contractors from two to one. The current contractor lives onsite, therefore has an invested interest.
Selected a new vendor to deliver and spread pine straw for the subdivision annually at $6.00 per bale at the front entrance and in common areas.
Lake/Pond Maintenance
Reduced lake/pond expenses by obtaining fourth quote to clean and remove the silt from two inlets at $2,200.00 twice a year.
Initially the board received three quotes with $40,000.00 being the least amount to clean and haul away silt from the pond and three inlets.
Regular maintenance of the spillway by removing debris and limbs to maintain the water flow.
Contacted the county for down or damaged trees.
Board Members | Member-at-Large
Appointed a treasurer to replace the vacant treasurer's position. Updated the secretary of state, banking and post office with new treasurer's contact information.
Recruited a 'Hospitality Committee Chair' to welcome new homeowners, send letters, cards, and to plan social activities.
HOA Attorney
Signed a retainer's agreement with a HOA attorney to handle legal issues pertaining to BWP HOA.
We would like to thank every homeowner for your support and the part you play to maintain Betony Wood Park subdivision.
Please share your thoughts, ideas and any suggestions you may have to improve our neighborhood.

No Parking on the Grass
Contractors must park in the homeowner's driveway that they are servicing. This includes no parking on the grass near the lake/pond area.
BWP Covenant Item #10 No vehicles, including automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, etc., shall be parked on any common areas of the development. No vehicles may be parked on the street in front of a lot other than the driveway or garage.
---------------------------------------------======================-------------------------
Lawn Care:
Each lot owner is responsible for the maintenance of their lawns. This means all the way to the streets.
BWP Covenant Item #25 The grounds of each lot upon which there is an occupied dwelling shall be maintained in a neat and attractive condition. Upon failure of any owner to so maintain his lot, the Declarant may, after ten (10) days' send notice to such owner, enter such lot and have grass and other vegetation cut when, as often as, the same is necessary in its judgement, and may have dead trees, weeds, shrubs and other plants removed therefrom.
Such owner shall be personally liable to the Declarant for the costs of any cutting, cleaning, and maintaining described above and the liability for amounts expanding for such cutting, clearing, and maintenance shall be a permanent charge and lien upon such a lot, enforceable by the Declarant by any appropriate proceeding at law or in equity.
All costs incurred by the Declarant on behalf of such owner shall be reasonable. Although notice given as herein above provided shall be sufficient to give the Declarant the right to enter upon such lots and perform the work required, entry for such purpose shall only be between the hours of 7:00 o’clock a.m. and 6:00 o’clock p.m. on any day except Sunday.

For Your Information:
Please use caution when entering and leaving the neighborhood at the traffic light. This is a dangerous intersection. Also, the intersection at Walt Stephens and Camp.
The back circle is a one-way street with signs posted. Please let your guests, workers and delivery drivers know ahead of time.
Please remember to drive slow in the neighborhood due to there are several children, people walking and constant deer crossing.
We live in a beautiful area with a lot of wildlife. Be aware we do have coyotes and fox so be careful if you have small animals. We also have copperhead’s
snakes in the area, and water moccasins by the pond.
Mail theft is a problem not just in our neighborhood but the surrounding areas as well. There is an online service where you can preview your mail and packages scheduled for arrival at USPS Inform Delivery website. https://www.usps.com/manage/informed-delivery.htm
Please help pick up any trash you see on our street as well as by the pond/lake after holiday events.

Annual Cleanup | Workday
BWP lot owners Spring Cleanup Workday is normally scheduled on the 2nd Saturday in April every year. There's always a backup day scheduled in the event it rains.
We meet at the lake/pond at 9:00 am (back area near the circle). We encourage everyone to participate. This is a great way for neighbors to work together as we get to know one another. Please wear comfortable clothes, shoes, work gloves. And if possible, please bring garden shears and rakes.
The HOA purchases about 180 bales of pine straw every year for the front entrance and specific common areas. The pine straw is delivered and spread by the vendor.
Let us work together to maintain this beautiful place we call home.
Lunch is always provided.
