**Association Tree Service Tomorrow (Thursday)
Westbury will be having some annual tree service maintenance work done tomorrow (Thursday) July 22. The work will be done in Westbury common area behind Sheringham Lane. The contractor is Triple T Tree Service. The contact is Mark on 770 617 1121. Mark has offered very competitive rates to Westbury homeowners who need tree pruning or removal of clearly distressed or obviously diseased/dead trees. Contact Mark for a quote while he on site tomorrow.

Please be reminded you can only remove trees that are obviously dead (no green) or obviously in distress (50% or less green). Tall hardwoods that are 85% or more green are not considered distressed and should be given time to recover.


** Pool Party Saturday August 21
We have another pool party scheduled for Saturday August 21, 2010 from 5-7pm. The raindate is the following Sunday at 5pm. Pizza and drinks will be provided. Hope to see you there!


** PACT Meeting Coming Soon
In response to your inquiries, we are working with the City of Johns Creek Police to schedule Westbury to attend an upcoming PACT (Police and Community Together) meeting. The date is not finalized yet but we wanted to let you know we are working on it. We will announce a date in the coming week so please watch this mailing list for that information and plan for someone from your household to attend.

This new tool is now available from the City of Johns Creek Police Department:

** Don’t Forget to Restrain and Pickup After Your Dog
Fulton County and Johns Creek ordinances require that you always pickup after your dog and retrain your dog with a leash at all times. Failure to comply will result in a $250 fine without warning. We have issued violations this year. This problem still exists. Make sure to educate your dog sitter and family members looking after your pet this summer. Always walk with baggies in hand. Thank you for your cooperation.


** Please Remember No Glass at Pool
We’ve issued more $50 glass fines this year that ever before! Children seem to be the biggest violators. PLEASE educate your children that they cannot bring glass onto the pool deck because it’s almost impossible to clean up every shard when the glass breaks. We do not like fining our neighbors but the safety of your feet is our utmost concern. Please teach your teenagers and children to bring their beverages in plastic or cans. Thank you for your cooperation.


** Need a Pool Key?
If you need a key to the pool or tennis courts please contact board@westburyhoa.org.


** Johns Creek Fire Hydrant Testing
We have been notified by the City of Johns Creek that they will be testing fire hydrants in the area on July 20-21 and that mild water discoloration may occur.

Johns Creek Fire Department will conduct fire hydrant flow testing in the following areas:
- State Bridge Road at Medlock Bridge Road
- Medlock Bridge Road at Bobby Jones Drive
- Old Alabama Road at Cherbury Lane
- Old Alabama Road at Haynes Bridge Road
- Old Alabama Road at Nesbit Ferry Road
- Holcomb Bridge Road at Barnwell Road
- Barnwell Road at North Peak Drive
- Jones Bridge Road at Buice Road
- Morton Road at State Bridge Road
- Jones Bridge Road at Abbotts Bridge Road
- Jones Bridge Road at Douglas Road
- Abbotts Bridge Road at Medlock Bridge Road
- Johns Creek Parkway at Lakefield Drive
- McGinnis Ferry Road at Hospital Parkway
- McGinnis Ferry Road at Concord Hall Drive
- River Walk Landing at McGinnis Ferry Road
- Rogers Circle at Bell Road
- East Johns Crossing at Johns Creek Parkway
- Bell Road at Medlock Bridge Road

As a result of the flow testing, residents may experience some water discoloration on the following day after the hydrant flow tests are conducted. If this is the case, residents should flush their taps until the water runs clean, which usually takes from five to 10 minutes.
