FAQ

All Homeowners or Property Owners Associations in the State of Texas must follow The State Property Code. Every 2 years (odd-numbered) the state legislature meets to review and amend these laws which are constantly changing. Both County and State laws supersede/trump your dedicatory documents so it is important to use these instruments hand in hand.
 

Charlie Riley (County Commissioner): There should be a notification sign up and visible if night work is planned. Resident stated this was not done previously and Mr.Riley will be checking into this going forward.

Charlie Riley (County Commissioner): NO SPEED BUMPS are allowed they are too much of a liability. The county also can not afford the cost and the roads through out the association are public roads therefore they can not be installed. Mr.Tim Hollifield has been hired by the commissioners office to look into speeding issues and he will be researching the Woodland Oaks Association however there will be a zero tolerance once this begins. If you see the same speeders every day or a reoccurring time report this to Officer Marshal Williams or To Mr.Hollifield.

Charlie Riley (County Commissioner) In order to widen the road all mail boxes need to be on the same side. Attendee asked if the commissioners office could send a letter to all Woodland Oaks Drive property owners asking them to move their mail boxes. Mr.Riley will have to look into that to see if it is even an option.

Charlie Riley (County Commissioner): Studies have been done and he has looked at the intersection himself as well as the intersections at Gunnison and Wiley and Hinsdale however there is not enough traffic to warrant a stop sign. The association has been studied. To justify a new stop sign a road must have an average of 800 cars an hour for 5 hours. Mr.Riley will put a counter at Hinsdale and Woodland Oaks to do a count however this will be a hard number to reach.

Report all street issues and drainage issues to Mr.Charlie Riley (County Commissioner) (281)255-6492.
