HCA ENTRANCE SIGN DESIGN DEADLINE @ SAT OCT 19

As described in the official announcement posted at right and mailed September 13, 2019, the HCA Board of Directors is inviting residents and Member homeowners to submit proposed designs for Maple Ridge Rd. and Hickory Cluster entrance signs.  HCA Block 3 Member Ann Youngren suggested entrance sign design clusterwide participation at the 2018 HCA Annual Meeting.

Although RA has DRB Design Guidelines for Cluster Common Area Signs, HCA previously considered unique non-DRB-compliant designs as part of the 1998 Hickory Cluster Common Area Improvement Project, but the signage portion of the project was not completed and the Maple Ridge south side sign location proposed in 1998 is now an overly active bus stop.  More recently, HCA reserved sign space on north corners of each entrance during 2016-17 landscape projects. 

Also noteworthy are sign designs for other Goodman residential communities in DC, Maryland, and Virginia including Hammond Wood, Hollin Hills, River Park, and Rock Creek Woods. 

Proposed designs should include detailed information such as dimensions, materials, finishes, supports, and whatever else is necessary to explain concepts.  Submission deadline is October 19, 2019 for hardcopy or email to:
HCA VP Matt Collins at 11522 Maple Ridge or mattcollins@hickorycluster.org
HCA Director Sylvia Merrill at 11541 Hickory Cluster or sylviamerrill@hickorycluster.org.
