At the fall meeting of the Woodland Lake Homeowners Association in 2019, the members authorized the Board of Directors to take the necessary actions to sell the “community” lot. The reason to sell the lot is to use the sale proceeds to pave our road. The money from the sale would ONLY BE USED TO PAVE UP TO THE END OF THE ASSOCIATION road by the apartments, including Carols Drive.
It has been determined during a preliminary meeting with the township that the community lot could be rezoned and then sold.
In order to rezone the lot all owners in WLSHA No.1 need to approve the rezoning. We will be discussing this at our June 5th Meeting.
A list of Q&A is below. If your question is not covered on the list please contact Anna Chatten via email. presidentwlsha@gmail.com
Each owner in WLSHA #1 will be mailed, emailed or delivered a form to sign to approve the rezoning and sale of the community lot.
Following the approval of owners, the rezoning process will be initiated. There is a possibility that the community lot could be divided into two lots. The WLSHA board and some volunteers will prepare a process to be followed to:
QUESTIONS and ANSWERS.
Will Association members be given preference to purchase a lot? NO, in fairness to all members, the Association must accept the highest sale price.
Will Carols Drive be paved/ YES.
What will happen to left over funds? Until all paving is complete and all bills are paid nobody knows how much money will be left if any.
Will the Road Fund assessment be eliminated? YES
Once again WLSHA organized the pot hole patching of Woodland Shore Drive. The cost for the main section from Hacker to the Apartments is shared by all who use that portion of the road. The cost for WLSHA's private roads is paid for by funds generated from your WLSHA dues. The work was completed April 15th. Hopefully it will hold us over until next time.
OWL has applied for and been approved for a permitt for chemical application weed control. A copy of the treatment notice was included in your 2021 newsletter. Dick Pinagle (Aqua Weed Control) and Anita Grapentien (OWL President) will be doing a survey on 5-13 to identify areas that require treatment. Treatments are not scheduled on weekends or holidays. Please look for the bright yellow signs posted on the lakeside of your property for the notice of the application. Weed control is financed through the Aquatic SAD and organized by OWL.
The goose round up program for 2021 has been approved. The 2020 program had been approved but was cancelled because of COVID. The nest destruction and egg removal process is a requirement to participate in the round up. GOOSE BUSTERS is the licensed contractor hired to accomplish this goal. The time frame of this program is April 17th- May 20th. Round up is usually during the last 3 weeks of June. Dates are dictated by the Department of Agriculture. The funds generated by the Aquatic SAD finically provide for this program. OWL coordinates the hiring of the contractor and the scheduling.
The Annual General Meeting for the Organization of Woodland Lake for 2021 will take place this year. However, because of COVID, the Brighton Twp. Hall is not available. A meeting in 2020 was scheduled, but because of COVID and the lockdown, that meeting was canceled. Not much has changed by the way of executive orders for this year so Brighton Twp. Hall is still unavailable. The OWL board has decided to schedule the Annual General Meeting via ZOOM. Mark your calendar and join us for the first ever Annual General Meeting for OWL via ZOOM on Wednesday May 19th, 2021 @ 7:00pm.
