City Pride Award signs will remain in the above resident yards for about 3 weeks. They each have received a certificate signed by the Mayor!

Congratulations to each of these residents for keeping their properties up nicely and taking pride in their city!

To nominate other residents, please send the mayor an email to mayor@woodlawnpark.com with the address and brief reason why this resident should receive a city pride award. These awards can also be given for good deeds in the city!

Snow Removal Procedure

If 2" or more of snow falls, the roads of Woodlawn Park will be salted and plowed. Less than 2", the roads will be salted only.

Newsletter Changes

Now that we have the ability to email and create online newsletters, we will be doing so each and every month for you to read and keep up with current calendars and city happenings.

If you know of someone that would rather receive a printed newsletter, we can do that too! However, for the time being there will be one printed newsletter that comes out every July that will include the budget and ad valorem tax ordinances. That newsletter will be mailed to all residents.

In the mean time, we will publish an email version of a newsletter every month.
