Highland Park Golf League - Session 1 - Wednesday, May 5th

Spring is here and it is time to start thinking about knocking the dust off of the golf bag. 

The Highland Park golf league is a 9-hole social league open to all Highland Park resident golfers of any ability.  We will be playing on Wednesday evenings again this year at Bob-O-Links Golf Course.  The league will consist of 2 nine-week sessions this spring and summer.  The first session will start Wednesday, May 5th and run to the last week in June.  The first tee time is around 5:30pm and we will usually have 4-5 groups.  There are no advance parings.  We simply pair up as people get to the first tee.  You are welcome to participate in one or both of the sessions.  Discounted 9 hole green fees will be offered again this year and you must pay for the 9 week sessions in advance! The fee this year will be $121.50 and you will be given a league punch card.  You may pay your green fees at Bob-O-Link Golf Course anytime after April 14th.  Bring the card with you each week and present it to the starter at the first tee.  He will sign you in and punch your card for play.  In the event you are not able to play on a league Wednesday you will be able to use the card for golf on any other day should you decide to play on a non league day (special events and tournaments excluded).  There is no expiration date on the cards.

There will most likely be folks that head over to the course over the next couple week to get in some practice rounds.  If you would like to participate in the golf league this year please email Sean Flaherty at flahertysean@yahoo.com.

Highland Park Mailbox Repairs

"You never get a second chance to make a first impression."
One of the first things that people notice when they enter our development is what a great looking neighborhood this is.  There are many factors that contribute to the beauty of our development and one of the main things is the look and upkeep of the mailboxes.  It sounds silly but the mailboxes make a dramatic statement about the type of neighborhood that we live in and the overall appearance of the neighborhood can have an impact on property values.  Did you know that the Highland Park Code of Regulations mandates that all mailboxes be of uniform size, shape and color?  Did you know that the current replacement cost of the mailbox post and structure can run upwards of $400.00 and does not include installation?

Please do your part to paint a positive image of this development by painting your mailbox and post.

Here are the names of some of the local paint stores for your convenience.

Sherwin Williams - 32803 Walker Rd Avon Lake, OH 44012  (440) 933-8622             (Walker/Rt 83)

City of Avon Parking Ban

Avon City Council has enacted a new parking ban.  Vehicles are no longer permitted to park on Avon city streets between the hours of 2:00am - 6:00am daily.  Police can grant temporary parking permits but residents must request a permit from the Avon Police Department.  Neighboring cities such as Westlake, Avon Lake, North Ridgeville and Bay Village all have the same parking restriction in place.  The new parking law is designed to help police identify suspicious activities, allow emergency vehicles better access and also enhance the aesthetics of the city.  Officers will be issuing warnings during a 60 day grace period.  After the grace period expires formal citations will be issued.
