Milwood Neighborhood Assoc.

Construction work is beginning today on the Creekside Trail on the west edge of Balcones Park from Duval overpass to baseball fields, so please plan your route accordingly. It should last approximately 2 months.

This is the result of the grant to get much needed holes repaired on the trail for safety. To learn more about our fundraising needs and volunteer hours needed for this grant visit: click here

An update on the grant fundraising as of 12/20/17, funds raised for the creekside trail repairs grant are now at $2,971, so we are only $6,332 away from what we need to provide our portion of the grant which will cover trail signage, maps, relandscaping of the pool and new trashcans. Want to donate? Look out for our Amplify Austin fundraising event coming up or click here to give today! Every penny you give will be more than doubled through the grant and given to our park improvements.

We are also still in need of approx. 300 volunteer hours in the park so if you can join us for It’s My Park Day on Saturday, March 3rd from 10am to 1pm please do! We will post the registration soon!

Thanks! For questions please contact mnaboard@milwoodna.com

Hi Neighbors!
We hope you can attend this presentation provided by the developers who want to rezone a Waters Park Road lot to a Cocktail Lounge. This could have a big affect on our neighborhood so please try to join the MNA Board to ask questions and hear details regarding the proposed development. If you can attend please RSVP below so we will have the room set accordingly.

The addresses they are trying to rezone are: 12219, 12219 1/2 and 12221 Waters Park Rd

Take a minute and drive down Waters Park Rd to get an idea of the project’s location. (At night and day if possible.)

Hi MNA Members! If you are current on your dues then you should find a Membership Vote in your email’s inbox. Please respond in the next 48 hours.
If you did not receive the email then your dues have expired but if you want to participate in the vote regarding the rezoning of a property on Waters Park Rd to Cocktail Lounge, simply pay your dues ASAP www.milwoodna.com/the-association/pay-dues/

We are working to strengthen our Block Captain & Neighborhood Watch Program! However we can’t do it without YOU!

So we hope you can join us this Saturday, Nov 18 at 10:30am at Milwood Baptist Church, 12217 Cassady Dr, Austin, TX 78727.

We hope it is the first big step to strengthening the program n our neighborhood and stopping crime! But again it will be nothing but a meeting if we can’t get active residents who are interested in making a difference attend! If you can attend please RSVP here so we can have the correct amount of handouts and chairs set-up.

Officer Hebbe will have handouts and a presentation ready for us as well as give us some real direction to help us make changes in our area.

We certainly appreciate your past support and look forward to the future!

Thanks!
