Swim & Racquet Center Pool Project Update

UPDATE – January 13, 2022

• While costs have increased from our original estimates, the Board and management team have a plan to ensure the project continues to move forward with the financial means to complete the project. (As all are aware, the pandemic has greatly impacted pricing through general inflation, the supply chain, and labor.)

• The project continues to be in line with what the community desires with the various features and amenities that have been requested by the membership. 

• The project documents for the Building Permit will be submitted to the Chesterfield County building department for review within the next few weeks. 

• Groundbreaking on the new complex is currently scheduled for March 2022. Anticipated construction will take 1 year. (The SRC pool will be closed for the summer 2022 season.) 

• The link below is to the Power Point presentation scheduled to be presented at the Town Hall on January 20, 2022 @ 6:30 PM. Due to the rising Covid numbers and in the interest of safety to all, the Town Hall will be conducted virtually. We are providing the power point presentation so that residents can view the documents prior to the Town Hall and provide any advance questions that they would like to see addressed. Please send emails to manager@woodlakeonline.com.

THANK YOU ARBORSCAPES!

A big thank you goes out to Arborscapes for sponsoring this year's Christmas Tree Recycling event at the SRC. We would also like to thank all of our residents who brought over 300 trees to the parking lot. We appreciate your role in helping to keep Woodlake beautiful and environmentally conscious.

Be a Good Steward of the Environment

Protecting our environment is essential for protecting our investments in our individual homes and our community property. In recognition of the fact that our community lies within the Swift Creek Reservoir watershed, it is imperative that we work to protect and enhance the lake. How we use our yards, roads, green-space, and common areas directly or indirectly influences water quality in the reservoir. Our intent is to operate as a community, and as individual residents, in ways consistent with the long-term sustainability of our community and the Swift Creek watershed and ecosystem within which we all live, work, and play. We believe that sound environmental performance on every lot is a key component of protecting and enhancing property values as a whole. 

With these goals in mind, please check out the following links.

• Plant natives when possible: Natives will grow better with less care and work. Follow the right tree, right place guidelines for plants and trees - https://www.arborday.org/trees/righttreeandplace

• Protect the Reservoir: Due to our proximity to the reservoir, resource protection areas/riparian areas (land within 100 feet of streams and lakes) need special attention. For more information, visit the Shoreline page on our website HERE.
