VDOT Rt. 29 and Ashwood Blvd Update
11 Jul 2008  An FLCA sponsored meeting to discuss safety improvements for the Ashwood Blvd and 29 North intersection was held 7/1, during which over 160 members of our community attended. The speed limit of 29 North was officially reduced 7/3 to 45mph between Polo Grounds Rd and Airport Rd and new signs have been posted. VDOT’s response to community concerns also included additional signs, pavement markings, rumble strips, and flashing lights to warn drivers approaching the Ashwood Boulevard intersection. Brush and some trees along the road shoulders and median strip will be cleared to improve visibility. FLCA is looking into moving the South Entrance sign. VDOT is also working with the Albemarle County Police Department to make shoulder improvements in that area to allow officers to conduct enforcement operations.

Mailbox Review Update II
Updated 9 Aug 2008  The follow-up review of the mailboxes in Forest Lakes North has been completed. More than half of the mailboxes cited for deficiencies were corrected by the owner. Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to keep our community an attractive place to live. The mailman has also mentioned that his job is made easier when mailboxes are maintained under good repair and built to specification.

If you receive a second checklist, please repair your mailbox in a timely manner. More information and mailbox specifications can be found on the Architectural Review Board Page. If you have any questions please call Julia Stinnie, FLCA office Manager at 973-4596.
