Pay dues by April 1st and you could win one of SEVEN gift cards up for grabs.

Let's keep the momentum going from last year, when the vast majority of dues came in ahead of the deadline. Getting the dues in on time is a huge help, and there's even more incentive this year with SEVEN winners.

Ask an arborist first.
Mailbox renovation season
An arborist NOT connected to a tree service will provide unbiased expertise on tree health, growth expectations, recommendations for trimming, etc. They can save you a lot of grief and the cost is not that much. For a list of independent, certified arborists, email Bruce.
Have you actually looked at your mailbox lately? Chances are, it's tired or dirty or crooked. We hadn’t looked closely at our’s in probably 30 years. It was embarrasingly tired and faded, so we pressure washed it, repainted the lid, and added new street numbers. Night and day.

Thank YOU for doing your part to keep our neighborhood a great place to live.
Why paying the dues is important.
Our HOA is dedicated to maintaining the qualities that attracted us all to Terrell Mill Estates. YOU play a vital role by paying dues.
The dues cover the costs of having an attractive entrance: landscaping, flowers, water, electricity, upkeep of the irrigation and lighting systems, and maintenance of the brickwork, stonework and ironwork.
We also have the cost of keeping all our homeowners informed on neighborhood matters. Email is our mainstay, but to make sure everyone gets key information, we also have to print and distribute newsletters and the directory.
Your dues also support our website, which provides a convenient and secure place to make your payment, and it has news about TME clubs and events. Other costs covered by dues are state registration, tax filing, and insurance.
The dues are genuinely important and are reflected in our healthy home values. Our goal this year is to have all payments by April 1st, so please take a minute now to send yours.
Thanks very much!
The Board and all our HOA volunteers.
Congrats to last year's gift card winners.

The Ivy Wars
The Bad News... Ivy can bring down limbs and even trees.
Ivy vines are deceivingly heavy. When the vines get up into trees, the vines that are encircling the limbs put a lot of extra weight on those limbs. They also make the tree top heavy and more prone to toppling. Some of our power outages are due to ivy-weighted limbs falling on power lines.
The Good News... You can kill the ivy up in your trees by yourself.
In a nutshell, cut the vines near the ground and the ivy growing up the tree and onto the limbs will die. Depending on how big your vines are, you'll likely need a hand saw or a lopper. There are some reecommended techniques, but it's a straightforward process.
This impressive ivy removal at 1221 Timberland Drive has been done gradually over about 6 months. Owner Najah Abukhdeir says the ground ivy was removed by using a Weed Eater and then some selected follow-up spraying. Killing the ivy growing up into the branches requires cutting the vines a few inches from the ground, and, again, several feet higher.
Ivy vines can be thick, so you may need a lopper or hatchet. Once cut, the vines die. It's recommended to let them fall off, rather than pull them off. If pulling them off, be careful, since even dead vines can be heavy. If you’d like to ask Najah questions, feel free to email her.
Georgia’s gardening expert, Walter Reeves, has a good Q & A on why ivy up in trees is bad and should be removed. It's on Walter’s website.
Library expands on Beechwood
A first for the neighborhood! The “Little Free Library” is open curbside at 3160 Beechwood, the home of “librarian” Natalie Wood. And due to the popularity, a separate kids "building" has been added! Natalie invites you to come by and take a book/leave a book. The selection of books changes with every visit, so come often. Free parking!
TME Covenants on the website
When you buy in Terrell Mill Estates, you come under our covenants automatically. They are straightforward and have served us well in maintaining neighborhood standards and home values. The covenants are printed in your directory and can be downloaded from the Covenants page of this website. Of particular note... If you're planning an addition, outbuilding, shed, etc., please read the covenants carefully and contact the HOA to make sure what you're planning will be in compliance. There is RARELY any problem, but better safe than sorry.
Is your yard in the street?
