As our community of 126 homes enters its fourth decade of existence, Timberlawn’s beauty, neighborly appeal and location continue to make it a sought after community in North Bethesda.
The Timberlawn Homeowners Association (“THOA”) board intends to use this community website as the primary method of communicating with all unit owners and residents. This will provide more timely, improved communications and at a time that is convenient for you.

| Woodward High School |
|
For background on the Woodward High School Project click on this link.
As part of a plan to demolish the current school building on that site and build a new and expanded high school, which we support, the Montgomery County Public Schools ("MCPS") is considering building a stadium/garage.
We have been working with four other homeowner association communities along Edson Lane to oppose only the stadium (not the fields), preserve the Forest, and save money at a time when MCPS and the County as a whole are facing enormous fiscal challenges.
We ask that you support our efforts by sending an e-mail (sample below)
To:
County Executive at Marc.Elrich@montgomerycountymd.gov,
County Councilmembers at County.Council@MontgomeryCountyMD.gov, and to the
Board of Education at boe@mcpsmd.org.
Subject: Woodward HS - Stadium
Dear County Executive Marc Elrich; County Council President Katz and Other Members of the Montgomery County Council; and Board of Education President Evans and Other Members of the Montgomery County Board of Education: Vote no to the building of a stadium for the new Charles W. Woodward High School Reopening and Expansion Project. The stadium would destroy the Edson Lane Forest, a precious and irreplaceable environmental resource and wildlife habitat.
In addition, Montgomery County must carefully review how this stadium realistically fits into the County’s quest for excellence in education. Sincerely, (Name)
(Address)

| Tree Removal Process |
|
Montgomery County (MoCo) and the THOA Board require prior approval for removal of healthy hardwood trees > 6" in diameter (please provide Mo Co approval to the board). If the hardwood tree is diseased (please provide the board a tree expert confirmation and picture) then the tree can be removed upon board approval. Prior approval is not required for softwood trees (such as a pine tree). If < 6” any tree can be removed without prior approval.
Finally, stump removal is the final step of the tree removal process and is required.
