Beautiful spring weather is the perfect time to be thinking about home improvements and catching up on exterior maintenance. New landscaping, tree removal, painting, and replacement of fencing, windows, decks and roofs have become commonplace as our community reaches the 25-year mark. This necessary maintenance to your home is essential for keeping our neighborhood beautiful and to retaining property values. Before undertaking a project, please review the Hamilton Mill Community Association Modification and Maintenance Rules document at HMILL.com and submit a Modification Request Form. All new exterior projects require approval from the Modification Committee which ensures a cohesive, Hometown appeal for our community.

Just a few reminders when considering modifications to the exterior of your home:

• Be prepared: Modification requests must include a site plan, a detailed description of work, a list of materials, pictures if applicable and any other information specifically required by the Covenants and/or Design Guidelines. Both are available on HMILL.com.

• Plan ahead: Modification Committee has up to 30 days from receipt of application to make a decision but tries it’s best to reduce the review process timeframe. Incomplete applications will cause delays.

• The Modification Committee reviews aesthetics ONLY and is not responsible for design, choice of materials or compliance with city/ state/county regulations.

• NO work should begin without prior approval. A fine of $500 will be imposed for violations.

• Submit all documentation to Property Management using the drop box at 1669 Hamiliton Mill Parkway, Dacula or email to maureen@ shabenandassociates.com.

Also, be sure you are receiving HOA correspondence and Newsletters via email by logging into HMILL.com and going to Resident Info to verify your contact information. Please contact Property Management at 678-546-3737 for any questions concerning modifications to your home.

Thank you!

BOARD OF DIRECTORS, HAMILTON MILL

HAMMERHEADS ARE BACK!!

Practices will begin on Monday, May 13 after school (transitioning to mornings once school gets out). The team swims five meets against nearby teams. This year, Hamilton Mill will host three home meets on May 30, June 13, and June 27 (all Thursday nights). All practices and home meets are at the Lakeview pool.

Swimmers must be able to swim at least 1 length of the pool without assistance. Practice is offered every day, with no minimum or maximum attendance requirements.

The team also has a small Guppies program for swimmers that can swim more than halfway across the pool but may not have the stamina to complete the lap. This program’s goal is to introduce swimmers to competitive (and fun!) swimming and be able to grow and swim in the meets by the end of the season. The overall goal of the Hammerheads is to provide a fun experience of competitive swimming at the grass roots level. Our coaches, Head Coach Amy Smith, and Assistant Coaches Joni Graves and Anna Smith, have been with the team for years and bring an incredible combination of experienced coaching, teaching, and most importantly, FUN!!!

Registration is still open at https://hamiltonmill.swimtopia.com. If you have any questions, please email hmsthammerheads@gmail.com. A representative from from the Board will respond as soon as possible. We can’t wait to see you at the pool!
