Events:

Community Rules:
All homeowners and tenants must comply with BHHCA rules.
The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, & Restrictions
is on the website at www.bhhca.org
under “Bylaws and Declaration” and public records of Jefferson
County. The Board of
Directors does not police the community looking for violations.
We rely on neighbors to bring their concerns to the Board’s
attention. All complaints
are kept confidential.
Street Parking & Towing:
Recently, we had to tow vehicles due to repeat violations.
Vehicles are to be kept in the garage or driveway. Street parking is
limited to 10 continuous hours and no more than 24 hours in a
calendar year. When a
violation is reported, a sticker is placed on the vehicle and letter
mailed to the homeowner.
Continued violations will result in the vehicle being towed at owner’s
expense. The tow company BHHCA uses is Derby City Towing of Louisville
located at 2800 Millers Lane, Louisville, KY 40216.
Signs are also posted throughout the neighborhood.
Please note:
It is also a violation of BHHCA restrictions and Jefferson County
Ordinance to block the sidewalk or park in the yard.
RV’s, Boats, & Trailers: No bus, mobile home, motor
home, trailer, truck, motorcycle, commercial vehicle, camper trailer,
camping unit, camping vehicle or boat shall be parked or kept on any Lot
at any time unless housed in a closed garage.
Animals: No animals, including without limitation, reptiles, livestock or poultry
of any kind, shall be raised, bred or kept on any Lot, except that a
reasonable number of dogs, cats or other traditional household pets may
be kept in the residence.
Chain Link Fences: No new
chain link fences are allowed under any circumstances and existing ones
cannot be replaced.
Car Break-Ins:
Car break-ins continue.
The police recommend
you remove
valuables, lock
doors, turn on outside lights, and report suspicious activity to LMPD
non-emergency at 502-574-7111.
For emergencies call 911.
LMPD requests ALL break-ins be reported, even if nothing is taken
so they can update their crime maps and target enforcement.
Meaning more police patrols in
our area.
Trash Cans & Service:
Please promptly remove trash cans after collection and store them
out of sight from the street. Curb appeal is important!
New homeowners can contact Republic Services at 502-638-9000 to
arrange for our special community rates or get information about
collection dates. Trash pick-up is weekly.
Recycling is an optional service that is every other week.
Pothole or Sidewalk Repair:
Homeowners can contact Louisville Metro Call – online at
http://louisville.gov/government/metrocall-311 or call 311 to
request a repair.
Street Light Out:
Call LG&E at 589-1444 and provide the address of the home closest
to the light. We pay a flat rate per light, whether the light works or
not, and repairs are included.
Any homeowner can request a repair.

Upcoming Events
Community Yard Sale
Community Yard Sale – Saturday, June 2, 2024 – The first Saturday in June, 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., rain or shine.
Annual Meeting –
Tuesday, August 20, 2024 – 7:00pm, Hope Lutheran Church, 4200 Shenandoah Dr.
Facebook:
We have a
page. Be sure to
us to stay up to date with all the
happenings in your neighborhood! We often get emails regarding a
lost or found pet, suspicious activity or people wanting to promote
their yard sale. Now you can do so yourself by posting on our
Facebook page. We would love to see ALL our residents using this
as it is a great way to communicate with your and watch out for your
fellow neighbors!
Trash Cans:
We have received several complaints about trash
cans being stored in front of or next to garages, sometimes overflowing
with trash.
This hurts curb appeal and is a violation
of the community restrictions.
Trash cans must be stored where they are
not visible from the street.
This means in your garage, storage shed,
backyard, etc.
We are asking for everyone’s cooperation.
Going forward, individual homeowners will
be cited for violations if the Board receives complaints.
ANNUAL MEETING:
Brooks of Hickory Hollow Annual Meeting will be held
in August, at 7:00pm at Hope Lutheran
Church. Exact date will be made
available when it is known.
This is YOUR neighborhood and your input is always
welcomed. Please try to attend!
YOUR DISTRICT COUNCILMAN is Marcus Winkler: Do you have concerns or suggestions on how to make the neighborhood, community, city or county better? Or perhaps you would just like to know what is going on? Our Councilman MARKUS WINKLER wants to hear from you! Contact his office to be put on his mailing list to know what is happening in your community.
Old News:
We have received additional questions about snow removal and
will try to answer them.
Hickory Hollow Subdivision is responsible for that intersection.
This area is NOT in the Brooks of Hickory Hollow and NOT our
responsibility. Our
subdivision begins/ends at the front entrance near the granite signs.
Hickory Hollow does not have snow removal.
However, at our request, the
company we use does go up into the intersection when they brine/plow and
turns around in the intersection.
Otherwise, there would be nothing done to that intersection.
There is no question the hill and intersection at Accomack and
Shenandoah are very dangerous when there is snow and ice.
This is yet another reason we have tried for years to make this a 4 way
stop.
We strongly recommend
homeowners DO NOT use that intersection when there is snow/ice on the
road.
We
have 3 other entrances/exits from our subdivision and the others do not
have a steep hill with a stop sign to maneuver like the one at Accomack.
In fact, Fincastle and Craig’s
Creek have snow removal like we do.
It is much easier to go through any subdivision other than
Hickory Hollow. If you have
kids to drop at a bus stop at that intersection, you can still avoid the
hill by going through Eagles Cove, Craig’s Creek or Fincastle and back
around to Accomack.
·
Some snow will get piled up at the end of your
driveway. There is no way to
avoid this when snow is plowed.
· Don’t park on the street. This allows the whole street to be plowed and snow won’t get piled up around your vehicle.
·
Please don’t stop the driver and ask him to plow
your driveway. He is paid by
the hour to plow our streets - not individual driveways.
Unnecessary delays cost everyone more.
·
Plenty of space is left between the plow and
mailboxes. However, the
force of plowed snow flying off the blade can knock down posts,
mailboxes and “for sale” signs that are not firmly secured.
The plow operator is not responsible for such damage.
CHAIN LINK FENCES: Chain
link fences are not allowed in the Brooks of Hickory Hollow per the
Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions.
Properties already identified as having existing chain link
fences may keep them as long as they remain in good condition.
If any repair is needed, the fence must be removed and cannot be
repaired or replaced.
NO NEW CHAIN LINK FENCES ARE
ALLOWED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Additional information and a list of properties allowed to keep
existing fences are on the BHHCA website listed above.
Please let new homeowners know they are not allowed to install a
chain link fence.
THANK YOU FOR HELPING MAKE THE BROOKS OF HICKORY HOLLOW A GREAT PLACE TO
LIVE!
