FAQs
(Frequently Asked Questions)
Hopefully, the following will help answer some of the questions we have received over the years.
Q: Why are there no streetlights in BWP?
BWP lot owners will have to sign a petition agreeing to the streetlights and to pay the cost
to have underground cables, poles and the streetlights installed. The cost as of 2023 isbetween $15,000.00 for five (5) lights, and $55,000.00 for twenty-four (24) lights. The
lot owners will be responsible for the cost which will be reflected on their property tax bill.
Q: Can BWP guests' fish in the pond/lake and keep the fish?
BWP lot owners must be present with their guests to fish. The pond/lake is catch and
release only.
Q: Why is BWP not a gated community?
Our neighborhood (BWP) would be responsible for the street maintenance and may
have to construct a bridge due to there is a beaver's dam in the first pond inlet. Also, we
would be responsible for fallen trees. However, if a tree falls and blocks the street, the
county is responsible for the removal.
Q: Can lot owners remove oak trees that lines the road in front of their property?
The planted oak trees which provide a canopy that lines the road are the property and the
responsibility of the BWP HOA subdivision. Therefore, prior to any oak tree(s) being
altered and/or removed pre-approval must be obtained from the BWP Board of Directors.
Q: What method does the board use to come up with the figures to determine the budget?
The board does a budget projection each year to determine anticipated expenses. Also,
additional funds are added to the projection for the next year to cover cost-of-living price
increase and unexpected expenses (pond, front entrance accidents not covered by
insurance).
