Temple Hills. A residential community in Franklin, Tennessee

Welcome

Our THHA website serves as an informative resource for both our neighborhood and our local community. Please feel free to contact us with your comments and suggestions.

Voting is now OPEN for the 2021 THHA BUDGET.

The ballot is to adopt our 2021 Budget. Online voting is available from now through December 9, 2020. You can review the 2021 Budget documents by mousing over the main navigation link "Business" and clicking on the dropdown link titled "*Budget Vote*." The documents available for review are the Budget Ballot Letter, Proposed 2021 Budget and 2021 Budget Explanations.

The easiest way for you to cast your vote is to go to our online voting. The link is available on our "Budget Vote" page. Printed ballots will only be sent in the mail to those without an active email address in their thha.net website account. If you would prefer to print out a copy of the 2021 Budget Ballot and mail it into the THHA office, there is a link to a PDF file on the budget page. The ballot must be mailed or hand delivered not later than Saturday, December 5, 2020.

Please take the time for this important vote as soon as possible. If we do not have enough votes for a quorum by our December 10 meeting, we will need to extend the balloting at additional expense.

Your vote is very important. Thanks for participating!

With so many of us sheltering at home these days, this is a great time to tackle those clean-up and fix-up projects. Please remember to reach out to your Architectural Review Committee (ARC) for approval of any exterior projects. You can print out a copy of the ARC Project Guidelines by clicking on this link.

Last but not least, if you or any of your neighbors are in need of any special assistance during this time, please respond to this email and a volunteer will contact you. We are fortunate to have 30+ Temple Hills residents step up to serve as volunteers, so please let us know if we can help you.

Welcome New Residents

SNEED ROAD AND FRONT ENTRANCES

The major redesign of our entrance intersection is still 3 to 6 years off, according to David Horwath of Land Innovations (project manager for Stephens Valley). The County requires Stephens Valley to complete substantial improvements to the intersection of Temple and Sneed Rd. prior to the County approving the plotting of 350 or more lots for Stephens Valley. Stephens Valley had recorded 136 lots by March, 2019, and has moved a bit more slowly than the pace of 50 to 60 lots per year as originally projected.

DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT WORK

The Drainage Committee meets monthly to manage current and new drainage projects. Current projects include:

Pond 1 (Hole #14): Relocating the emergency spillway to the north side of the lake is being evaluated.
GIS Mapping: Identifying and locating all drainage structures within Temple Hills for the purpose of planning future maintenance of these structures and the related costs.

Stormwater runoff problems are an ongoing concern at Temple Hills, and your Drainage Committee is working hard to maintain or improve the existing infrastructure. Please report any problems or questions to Steve Westerman, Drainage Committee chair, steven.westerman@att.net.

Planning to make improvements to your home exterior or property?
Get it approved by the ARC!

The Architectural Review Committee (ARC) is composed of volunteers whose mission is to ensure the aesthetical harmony of homes in Temple Hills to protect the ongoing enjoyment and property values for all homeowners. The "ARC Project Guidelines" serve as the basis for this mission. Project request forms need to be received by the ARC by the first of the month to allow time for review and consideration at the regular ARC meeting for that month. For information and instructions click on the sidebar "ARC Application".

BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR...AVOID THESE COMMON COMPLAINTS

1. Trash barrels must be kept concealed from view except on trash day. If you have a steep or long driveway, you might consider a trash service that will drive up to your house. Hughes Disposal will do this, (615) 791-0482.

2. On-Street Parking is an ongoing issue in Temple Hills. Parking in the grass or partially in the yard is also prohibited, and is an eyesore. Consider cleaning out garages or constructing an overflow parking pad to the side or rear of the home if space permits. ARC approval is required for parking pads!

PROTECT OUR STREET SIGNS

Your dues paid for our very nice street posts & signs - Pease do not attach anything to them! Tapes, string and wire can damage the finish. Also, when walking your pet, please do not allow it to relieve itself on the post. Pet urine is very acidic and will damage the finish.

POSTING OF PUBLIC NOTICE SIGNS

Please place Open House, For Sale, Lost/Found, etc. signs at the front entrances to the left or right of the landscaped areas. Also, For Sale signs are allowed in yards and only 2 days prior to an Open House. Please keep all signs OFF our medians and mulched areas.

FREE PAPER SHREDDING

HAZARDOUS WASTE RECYCLING

Williamson County recycling information can be found at http://www.williamsoncounty-tn.gov/index.aspx?NID=913. Information includes drop-off location, materials accepted, hours of operation, etc.

TEMPLE HILLS MAILBOX PROGRAM

The HOA has adopted a standard mailbox design for new mailboxes in Temple Hills (not including The Links or The Reserve…which have their own standard mailbox designs).

The standard mailbox includes an upgraded, heavy-gauge steel mailbox, fluted base with round top finial, and custom address plate with reflective letters.

Upgrading our mailboxes to this standard design gives Temple Hills a more consistent look and matches our street signs.

Studies have shown that neighborhoods with standardized mailboxes and street signs have higher property values…up to 7%...while enhancing curb appeal. Please consider this upgrade if you have an old mailbox or one in need of replacement.

Our approved vendor for the mailbox system is Bozman Signs, 862 Easthagen Dr., Nashville, TN 37217. Email: mailboxes@bozmansigns.com or call 615-331-0805.

To order a new mailbox, click here to download the price list order form, then email the completed form to Bozman.

Pricing for a complete new mailbox system is $505.00. This is a turnkey price and includes the mailbox system, shipping, and professional installation. If removal of the old post and concrete is required, add $55.00. Tax not included.

Contact Williamson County Animal Control for domestic animal issues: 615-790-5590 and for wildlilfe issues: 781-6622. To file an official complaint, please download the Animal Control - Temple Hills Complaint Form on our Animal Control page.
