Estates Of Hickory Woods
Our Projects & Updates
The Board Members choose projects that need accomplished to maintain the quality of the neighborhood. The dues that we all pay yearly apply towards paying for these projects, or little surprises. These projects are for improvements, to maintain or update the common areas and to help create safety overall.
PLEASE NO INTENTIONAL DUMPING/LITTERING IN THE COMMON AREAS/TRAIL
Project #1. The Walking Trail
The common area trees in the center of the walking trail is always a top priority. We try to maintain the paved trail the developer left very natural, trim and cut down dead trees, clean up drainage that is mandatory by Metro from the street drainage. We have cleared a lot of trees since the builder left making the area more visible around the curves and feel safer to walk. We seal coated the asphalt Sept 2022.
We have considered finishing the unpaved trail entrances on the three remaining streets (they were left that way by the builder and developer sadly) We put out trail rules signs for no motorized vehicles, unleashed pets on the trail and no littering. We would like to eventually add some trash cans, park benches and dog pooping bag stations if that is something everyone would like. We are sorry, but no it can't be a playground or pool at this time. It is too costly to build, maintain and insure. There is also a possible sinkhole in the center of the trees. No we can't use Hickory Woods Pool behind us, we don't pay to maintain or use it. They are a separate HOA managed by Timmons Property.
**Always stay aware of your surroundings walking alone on the trail**
Project #2. The Entrance
At the last Board meeting we discussed the entrance sign upkeep, landscaping, irrigation repairs, another security camera in the back entrance and
vinyl fence cleaning/repairs. Example of Our Meeting Minutes
Metro Nashville repairs and maintains the Streets, Sidewalks, Street Signs
(unless it's a neighborhood sign) NES Street Lights and Metro Codes. You can report things on their site: hub.Nashville.gov and safe neighborhood watch is encouraged. It's up to all of us to keep OUR Neighborhood Nice!
* The white fence will be cleaned in Spring and flowers/trees maintained.
* The entrance sign letters were enhanced 2016, we will do again when needed.
* The landscaping and lawn care is Pride Lawn Care and we have been content.
* Spring/Fall the irrigation gets turned off-on/repaired, by Guzand Irrigation.
* We maintain and pay for the water & electricity at the entrance.
* We have a security camera HIK on solar panel and Verizon Cube.
**Please remind your children when waiting for the School Bus for school to not stand, sit or throw trash
in the entrance. It's the focal point to our community.**
Antioch's Future Development
Tanger Outlet Mall and Many Restaurants have opened in the area off exit 60. Starbucks built a new stand-alone location, In and Out Burger, Chic Fila, Texas Roadhouse, Eggspectation, and more. Mills Park opened on OHB someone donated the land for across from Cane Ridge High School. They did open a KIPP School at the Global Mall. They have started demolishing the old mall to create a new space that hopefully we can all enjoy. Plans
Metro Nashville built a police precinct they have been promising us for many years. Commander Carlos Lara is coming to make a difference. Carlos.Lara@nashville.gov
