Q. How much are the annual homeowners dues and when are they assessed?
A. Dues are $189.00 per year assessed on January 1st. You will receive an invoice from the office and must submit your payment before January 31st to avoid interest charges. Fees cover all upkeep and maintenance of the green ways along the parkway as well as the 6 miles of trails. Depending on which Woodcroft neighborhood you reside, you may also pay HOA fees to your individual community. This is the case for all town home communities as well as some of the single family home neighborhoods such as Cross Timbers. See the New Residents page for more details.
Q. Are Woodcroft residents automatically members of the Swim and Tennis Club?
A. No, the club is a seperate entity with a different fee structure. For more information please visit the Woodcroft Club website.
Q. I’m having a yard sale this spring. Why can’t I post my signs on the Parkway?
A. The Woodcroft Community Association policy is intended to keep the parkway appearing “clean and green”, part of what makes this community so special. We count on each Woodcroft resident to help uphold this policy in a responsible manner.
Q. Does installing a satellite dish require architectural board approval?
A. Acceptable satellite dishes must be 18” or less in diameter, antennae much be placed in the most unobtrusive location on the homeowner’s property and cannot be visible from the street. No mast to which the antennae are to be attached may be more than 12 feet in height. If your dish meets this criteria, you do not have to submit an ARB application. If you dish is outside these parameters you must make an application. The ARB submission deadlines and meeting dates can be found under “calendar of events”.
