Winner of the City Council Neighborhood Enhancement Award for 2009 Efforts to be “green,” resident safety, quality of life, community education, outreach and activities: all played a factor in the City Council's choosing The Woodlands—Winding Brook Homeowners Association for this award. Board members and Green Team members accepted the award Saturday, June 6 during a special presentation at the Farmers Market. (See pictures from the event) Many of these improvements were the results of the homeowners association's effort to implement a long-range, comprehensive for the neighborhood. The Green Team, which advises the HOA board, has worked to find environmentally and aesthetically pleasing solutions to storm water and retention pond problems and to develp strategies for protecting neighborhood trees. The Council also recognized Winding Brook Homeowners Asociation for building community by organizing events for residents, including cook-outs, garage sales and grounds clean-ups. Reaching beyond the Woodlands, members of The Green Team presented a course March 3 through People's University on how other neighborhoods can accomplish similar goals. This willingness to share with other Bloomington neighborhoods also impressed The Council. |
