Lakemoor Hills Garden Club Offers Bows & Carpenter Bee Traps
Spring is getting closer every day and with spring we have Dogwood Festival and warm weather. The Lakemoor Hills Garden Club has constructed Carpenter Bee Traps ($15) to help you manage those pesky bugs that arrive with the warm weather and pink and green Bows ($3) for your mailbox. Both will be available at the homeowners meeting March 17 at 7 PM at Lake Hills Church. These funds will be used to help maintain common properties throughout the neighborhood.
Neighborhood Cleanup Day – March 28
We will hold the annual NEIGHBORHOOD CLEANUP DAY on March 28 from 9 – 12 AM. Volunteers will meet at the Lake Hills Church parking lot to receive their assignments and tools at 9 AM. The pink and green mailbox bows will also be available for purchase ($3) to adorn your street during Dogwood Art Festival. Pizza will be served at 11:30 in the church pavilion. If you have questions, call Kathy Proctor at 599-7783 or [email protected]. Thank you for helping make Lakemoor Hills beautiful!
Couple Looking for House to Rent
I received a request from a couple looking for a home to rent in Lakemoor Hills. If anyone knows of a house that is available, here is Matt Reed’s contact information and his request.
“Hi! My name is Matt Reed — my fiancé and I are looking for a home to rent beginning this summer 2015.
Lakemoor Hills would be ideal for us (I work downtown and my fiancé is a nurse at UT Med). If you know of anyone in your area trying to rent a full home, I’d greatly appreciate any information you might have! Thank you!”

Write Representative Duncan about Alcoa Hwy Improvements
This evening at the LHHA homeowner’s meeting we were encouraged to write to our representatives in Congress to encourage them to move a multi-year funding bill for federal highways forward, so the TN Department of Transportation (TDOT) can make longer range commitments and begin construction on much needed highway projects. Please write Representative Duncan and encourage him as our representative, and the chair of the Transportation Committee, to use his influence to get the funding required to address the improvements to the extremely dangerous Alcoa Highway. Here is his contact information:

Legacy Parks Visits LHHA
Many of you were present at the recent Lakemoor Hills Homeowners Association meeting. You were able to hear Carol Evans, Director of Legacy Parks, speak about their efforts to purchase land on Maloney Road and acquire an easement across Vulcan Materials property to connect the greenway from South Knoxville to I.C. King Park and later onward to the Smokies. This proposed greenway is one more part of the Urban Wilderness (1,000 acres of greenspace) which connects Ijams Park to various Civil War sites, quarries and other greenways in South Knoxville. Here is a link to a little more information about how this Knoxville Urban Wilderness is viewed. The Knoxville Urban Wilderness was listed as the #1 recreational area by USA today in our area – topping even the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. WOW!!
Let’s get behind Legacy Parks and help get the property needed to make the connection. It will be a huge benefit to our neighborhood and our community. You can do this by making donations to Legacy Parks (designated to “Fund the Gap” project) or even sharing your thoughts about now important this is to people you know in decision making positions at Vulcan Materials.
