Woodlands Committee

Please see full arborists report posted in the document library. 

 

A young willow planted at the south end of the beach was intentionally chopped down. In addition, costly evergreen trees planted in recent years have mysteriously died in spite of careful tending. It has been suggested they may have been poisoned. Perhaps most are unaware that these evergreens were mitigation trees required by State and Federal law to replace ones blown or taken down. (In one recent year alone, we lost 22 trees!) The dead trees will have to be replaced taking WABA funds that could have been used in much better ways.

Vandals have destroyed inventory/monitoring tags placed on WABA trees as part of the arborist assessment. These, too, will be replaced and at a cost. Please be vigilant and stop any harmful activity.

 

When there are Woodlands reports available, they will be posted in the document library with the agendas and minutes. 

 

Please see the Arborists report in the document library posted with the Minutes and other reports.

In an effort to protect the recently restored Woodlands areas, and clarify existing rules the WABA dog policies have been updated and revised.

Message From Our Dock Master

There continues to be a wait list for year-round water-ski size slips, there are several vacant slips in the marina. There are 30 foot, 40 foot, and seasonal slips available. In addition, there are vacant spaces on the platform and racks for smaller vessels. Please think ahead to the summer boating season and let me know if you are interested in a slip. – Dock Master Bernard van de Kamp
