Frequently Asked Questions


Streets and Roads, Potholes and Problems

All of the streets in Woodlake belong to the State road system. Potholes and other problems may be reported to the VDOT web site or at 674-2800. All questions regarding traffic or parked vehicles on the streets should be directed to the Chesterfield County non-emergency Police department at 748-1251.


Pools, Tennis, Fitness Facilities

The swimming pools, tennis and fitness facilities are not operated by the Community Association. Questions should be directed to The Swim and Racquet Club Membership Office at 739-9095.


Animal Problems

The Community Association has no authority to take action in response to animal problems. Call Chesterfield County Animal Control at 748-1683.


Yard Sales

Permission is not required to hold individual or neighborhood yard sales; however, only one sign is permitted at the neighborhood entrance on the day of the sale, and an official sign must be obtained from the WCA. There is a $20 deposit for the sign which is refunded when the sign is returned in good condition. The Community Association will list neighborhood yard sales (three or more homes participating in the same neighborhood) on the marquee signs when space permits.

The WCA also sponsors a Community-Wide Yard Sale once a year in the spring. Residents hold the sale at their own home, but the WCA does all the advertising. Watch the newsletter and website for announcements regarding the date of the Community-Wide Sale.

See the blue pages of the Woodlake Directory for complete policies regarding yard sale signs.


Signs

Specific signage policies are listed in the blue pages of the Residents Telephone Directory. No signs should be tacked to permanent signage or traffic signage. No signs are to be placed on the Parkways at any time. "Yard Sale", "Lost Pet", "For Sale By Owner" and "For Lease By Owner" signs are available from the WCA. No other signs may be used. Call the WCA at 739-4344 for more information.


Lost and Found

Lost or found items or pets should be reported to the WCA office at 739-4344. Lost and Found is published in the monthly Life on the Lake when space permits and on the WCA website.
