Neighbor Rita McKenzie of the Selby Apartments suggested that we share the following information…

She is a retired urban forester from Purdue University. She wanted us to share this link and inform people of the potential damage they are doing to their trees by allowing ivy to grow on them.

Many thanks to outgoing President Rachael Dorthy and Vice President Matt Lenky.

Are you keeping up with the Colonial Hills Courier? We post it online of course, and the link is here. Thank you to all our neighbors who have been participating in the block watch. A criminal was caught breaking into cars on Loveman Avenue in early January after and alert neighbor saw them (at 3:30 am!!!) and called the police. Calls to police about “solicitors” have been up as well, and it is all good. Keep up the good work, keep your cars empty of valuables and let’s work together to make Colonial Hills as unfriendly to prowlers as possible.
