The Highlands at Woodbrook Community Organization consists of all 56 households in the Highlands. Every homeowner gets a voice — through voting at the annual meeting, approving the yearly budget, and attending the board meetings on the first Thursday of each month. The mission of the organization is straightforward: To ensure that the neighborhood is appealing and attractive, that its amenities are well managed, that disagreements are quickly resolved, and that property values are maintained and enhanced.

See something that needs improving? Ask the board if you can take it on as a project. You’ll feel good about improving the place where you live — and your neighbors will be grateful!
