Thanks to the hard work of the Tree Committee, Board member Bill Newby, and Councilman David Ryu’s Office, the Highland Median has been mowed and cleaned! Drive by and take a look and thanks to everyone who’s helped prod the City to get this done.
HPHOA Block Captains met with the HPHOA Board in September to go over Security, Parkway trees, the HPOZ, Filming and Transportation. Thanks to the all the block captains and Board Members who Zoomed in to ask questions and make sure we keep our neighbors informed and safe. The Block Captains are the key to keeping our neighborhood safe and beautiful and we thank them for volunteering.
