Two Dozen Property Owners Alerted About Prairie Restoration Plans

Several weeks ago the WMC Board authorized President Frank Remfrey to send a brief letter to the property owners who live near three areas under consideration for planting of native plant species.  The areas are near University Court, Turnberry Court and St. Andrews Court.  The letter invited the property owners to an informational meeting scheduled to begin at 9am on Saturday February 23rd at the West Wood Fitness Center.  The meeting will be held in the conference room located near the main reception desk on the first floor.  All WMC property owners are welcome to attend.

The purpose of the meeting is to advise the homeowners of the discussions that have taken place at WMC annual meetings the past two years regarding the conversion of several rather small areas in the Windings outlots from grass to native Wisconsin plant species.  The meeting will give the homeowners an opportunity to ask questions and provide input.

Presently, several Girl Scouts are planning a leadership project this spring to plant native species and are seeking permission to proceed with the project on one of the areas in the Windings.

In addition the to the 9 am meeting, a walking tour of the grounds under consideration will take place later on Saturday beginning at 1 pm.  The tour will begin near University Court.

If you have any questions or concerns about this topic, feel free to contact any of the WMC Board members.

Leaf Pickup Dates Announced


The annual leaf pickup schedule was included in your recent quarterly water bill from the City of Waukesha.  Since Windings residents live in Waukesha's 5th aldermanic district, the following dates have been assigned for leaf pickup in our neighborhood: 

October 17
November 5
November 28

In the past, City crews have removed a majority of the leaves prior to the assigned dates in an effort to stay ahead of the demand and did touchup work on the actual date. 

Keep in mind the leaves should be placed on the terrace between the sidewalk and the curb, not in the street.
