TRASH:  We have a new one year contract with Industrial Disposal (ID) from 1/1/12 to 12/31/12 with no change in rates.  Please store trash cans so they are not visible from the street to enhance the community curb appeal. 

 

SNOW REMOVAL:  We continue to use the same snow removal contractor we have had from the beginning.  He addressed the concerns expressed last year and we have received several compliments this year about his service. 

 

FRONT ENTRANCE IMPROVEMENTS:  Over the past year, several improvements were made to the front entrance that included permanent curbing around the flower beds, removal of the damaged birch trees, new beds, irrigation system, rubber mulch and clearing out dead trees and debris of the area along the creek.  Most of the improvements were intended to cut down on vandalism and provide long-term cost savings. 

 

4-WAY STOP:  With help from Councilman Glen Stuckel and the Hickory Hollow subdivision, we finally have a 4-way stop at the intersection of Accomack and Shenandoah.  Councilman Stuckel was also instrumental in getting the uneven payment on Shenandoah near Hickory Cove Court repaired.

 

NO SOLICITING:  We have received complaints of people soliciting door-to-door despite the “no-soliciting” signs posted at all 4 entrances.  You can let solicitors know that we have signs posted and soliciting is not allowed in our community.  If they continue to solicit or become argumentative, call LMPD’s non-emergency number at 574-2111.     

 

RULES REMINDERS:

·         Vehicles should be parked in your driveway or garage – not on the street or grass. Street parking is ONLY for temporary guests or workers.     

·         Boats, trailers, campers, motor homes, commercial trucks, jet skis, etc. are not allowed in our community unless kept in a closed garage. 

·         All properties must be maintained in a neat and attractive manner.  Please keep grass trimmed - including ditches and behind fences. 

·         It’s illegal to put anything in the creeks or ditches.  MSD can issue fines and require you to clean it up.

·         Always pick up after your pets.  It’s the law!

 

If you contact the board with a rules violation, you MUST furnish the address of the homeowner and provide specific details about the violation.  All complaints are confidential.  If you receive a violation letter, it means the board received a complaint from another homeowner.  You can email the board at AskTheBoard@bhhca.org.

 

VIOLATION COMPLAINTS:  Please contact Metro Call at 311 or www.louisvilleky.gov/MetroCall for enforcement of Jefferson County ordinances.  Anyone can request this service from Metro Call. Ordinance violations include:

ü  Vehicle parked on the street for 24 hours or more.

ü  Grass/weeds taller than 10 inches.

ü  Vehicles, boats, RVs parked on the grass or vehicles blocking the sidewalk. 

 

CHAIN LINK FENCES:  Chain link fences are not allowed in the Brooks of Hickory Hollow per the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions.  Properties already identified in 2009 as having existing chain link fences may keep them as long as they remain in good condition.  If any repair is needed, the fence must be removed and cannot be repaired or replaced.  NO NEW CHAIN LINK FENCES ARE ALLOWED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. 

 

FAQs:

1.       A streetlight is out.  Why doesn’t the board get it fixed?  We rely on the homeowners living near the streetlight to report it to LG&E.  We pay a flat rate per light whether they work or not and repairs are included at no extra charge.  Please report problems to LG&E at 589-1444 and give them the address of the home next to the light. 

2.       How do I get more information about the community or contact a board member?  The best source of information is the community website – www.bhhca.org.  Board member contact info is listed on the website or you can email us at AskTheBoard@bhhca.org. 

3.       I want to know what the deed restrictions and community rules are.  Where can I find them?  They are recorded in the public records of Jefferson County and also on our website listed above.  The document is called the Brooks of Hickory Hollow Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions.

4.       What do our annual dues pay for?  We pay for the streetlights, snow removal, dues billing, stamps, supplies, collections, repairs/maintenance of the front entrance, landscaping, website, P.O. Box, etc.  We review the budget and expenses at the annual meeting in August and encourage everyone to attend.
