Minor Correction Needed to 2020 FHA Directory

The beautiful new Fearrington Homeowners Association Directory recently delivered to our front porches contains one minor error. The Directory lists an inaccurate address for our new management company, Mill House Properties.  The correct address is 1720 E. Franklin Street, Chapel Hill, NC 27312.  Please adjust your records accordingly.

Tree Pruning Will Begin Tuesday, November 26

Davey Tree will begin a large tree pruning project on Tuesday, 11/26/19.  They will continue work on Tuesday, 12/3/19.  They may possibly need a third day.  This is just the beginning of the major tree work project scheduled for the entire community.  Pruning/tree removal that is not completed in December will be completed in the January/February 2020 timeframe.  The Tree Pruning signs will be out for the next several weeks in December and then taken down.  They will be put up again when the January/February work continues.  We request that homeowners refrain from stopping the workers to question or make requests.  We have a contract and Davey Tree will honor only those items on it.  As a reminder, Davey Tree did a complete walk throughout the property in early fall to determine what needed pruning or removal based on safely concerns and preservation of roofs.

Fall Leaf Cleanup Planned

Ruppert will be on the premises on Thursday, November 14 or Friday, November 15, 2019, to blow the leaves off walkways, only.  They will be on site on Wednesday, November 20, 2019, to do regular maintenance, branch and brown bag pick up, and blow all areas for leaves.

NC Division of Highways Road Work

You probably have seen the roadwork along the sides of Weathersfield Road this week.  The WSG Board has called NC Division of Highways to learn the reason behind the grading work.  The Highway Division says the work is to address drainage problems.  They plan to repair damage caused by their work by reseeding the road shoulders and covering with straw.  There is no date as yet for when the repairs will be done.

You will notice this work is continuing along Millcroft and other roads in Fearrington.  Weathersfield and the other roads are state roads and NC Division of Highways has the right of access and maintenance.  Your WSG Board will continue to follow developments and keep the Division of Highways aware of their responsibility to repair the damage to the roadsides their work has caused.
