The Pinecrest Board
Currently only two people serve on the Pinecrest Board. The boardcould use the help of homeowners that would be willing to give some of their time to serve on the board. The board meets four times a year. Generally, we meet once every three months. Please consider joining the board.
Inspection Letters
An inspection was performed early this summer by TWC and violation notices were sent to the homeowners. If you have any questions regarding the violation, please contact TWC at 703) 437-5800.
Volunteers Needed
At one time Pinecrest had block representatives that worked with the board. Everyone wants their individual block to look the best.
We need people that would be willing to work on a landscape / plant committee. It would give you a larger voice in what happens in the community. If you would consider volunteering for the a plant / landscape committee, or to help get a design committee started please call TWC and give your name to Kim Hendon. We do have someone in the community that would be willing to assist on a committee that would help in beautifying each block.. Kim will put you in touch with that person.
We also need a people that would be willing to sit down and review the design standards. It needs to be updated. If you would be willing to volunteer some time to review and update Pinecrest’s standards ( I believe ROA would help) this would be a huge help. Again, please call Kim Hendon at TWC so we can get this going.
