Looking for other info ?
ID Cards - ID cards must be carried with you
when using Hickory Hills' facilities. They are a necessary security device
to help identify you as a resident who has a right to use the facilities.
People who do not have ID cards will be asked to leave the premises.
Parents, please make sure your children carry ID cards.
Parking Stickers - Parking stickers are free
to residents whose fees are paid. To get your sticker, please bring a copy
of your vehicle registration to the office. These stickers are required to
park in the beach area parking lots. Guests of those residents in good
standing must park outside the parking area. Parking along Townsend Harbor Rd.
is prohibited.
Rental Property - Property owners are
responsible for the behavior of their tenants, and must inform tenants of
rules and regulations of the License. Owners please call the office so we
can put your tenants on our newsletter list.
Reminder: The Board of Directors meets the
second Thursday of every month at the office building on Island Rd. Anyone
having business for the Board, please contact the office in writing, prior
to the meeting.
Releases - Please Note!
Landowners must RELEASE all property in Hickory Hills before a homeowner can
sell, transfer, refinance, or change names on deeds. All of these transactions
must comply with a provision in our deeds, which grants the corporation a Right
of First Refusal to purchase a property, and the corporation waives this right
in the RELEASE.
To obtain your RELEASE in time for any property sales, you must request your
RELEASE from our office manager in writing (can be emailed or faxed). Usually
you would request this when you sign a purchase and sale agreement. You must
include:
- SELLER(S) - name(s), property address and phone number; agreed price for transaction, and any other conditions of sale.
- BUYER(S) - name(s), address, and contact person for the office to get the rest of information needed (realtor, closing attorney or financial institution).
Without a RELEASE the sale of a property cannot be completed, and the buyer cannot obtain clear title to the property.
When you complete a property sale with the proper RELEASE, that RELEASE is recorded at the Registry of Deeds with your new deed, and it is given a new Registry Book/Page number.
Our office procedure is as follows:
- The RELEASE must be requested in writing at least 14 working days prior to closing.
- When the RELEASE is requested by a property owner, attorney, bank/financial institution or realtor, our office manager will immediately confirm the transaction with the property owner. Once the information needed for the transaction has been confirmed, the property owner must pay Landowners' fee to prepare the paperwork.
- If the property owner's license fee is past due or if any other fees owed to Landowners are outstanding, the fees must be paid by the owner before the RELEASE is prepared prior to the closing.
- Any RELEASES which are completed by our office manager for a property owner must be paid for by the property owner whether or not the closing occurs.
Please plan ahead and give our office manager ample time to complete your RELEASE properly, so that your closing will not be delayed, and you will have a smooth transfer of your property. Rates are:
Release
Shareholder $40
Non-shareholder $80
Stock Changes
Please call the office to make arrangements for any stock changes due to death, divorce, name change, etc. Our office manager needs to be notified in order to issue a stock in the new owner(s) name when buyer purchases the prior owner's share. Remember stockholders receive a 50% discount for ID cards, boat stickers, and release fees. If you are interested in purchasing a share of stock please contact the office.
Sweatshirts
We have large & x-large sweatshirts in white with our logo in blue around the pocket area and also blue ones with the white logo. If you would like other sizes they can be ordered if prepaid. The cost is $15.00.
Lake Pictures - We had colored aerials done of
the lake area. We have them in the office for anyone who wants to view
them. We can have enlargements made by request. The 8 X 10 pictures
are $24.
HHL StickersThe famous Euro car stickers
are available in the office for Hickory Hills. Proceeds go towards the
new office building.
