Dogwood Grove FAQs
Does the Association own or manage any common property?
Dogwood Grove Homeowners Association does not own any property such as a clubhouse or pool. However, the Association is responsible for the upkeep of the brick entrances on Wolf River Blvd. which benefit all residents in Dogwood Grove and serve as the “gateway” to the neighborhood. This upkeep includes planting flowers twice annually, routine mowing, edging, fertilization & landscaping, sprinkler systems, lighting, utilities, and holiday decorations. At times, the maintenance also includes cleaning and repairs to the brick itself.
Are there other purposes of the Association, besides upkeep of the brick entrance features?
Your neighborhood association works hard to develop a sense of community through numerous social events, contests and activities. Through regular e-newsletters and social media, we promote the safety and well-being of our residents, which in turn helps keep property values high by making Dogwood Grove one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Germantown.
Does the Association have special homeowner covenants, like typical HOA’s?
No. There are no such special covenants or restrictions for the neighborhood itself. However, our Association leadership is in regular communication with City of Germantown leadership to help ensure that city codes and ordinances are followed.
What is the Association’s official Facebook Group?
The official Facebook group managed by your Association is “Dogwood Grove Neighbors.” This group is for neighborhood residents only, but you do not have to be a paid member to be a part of the Facebook group. Join us on Facebook. Our Instagram Page is also called “Dogwood Grove Neighbors.”
What are the $60 annual membership dues used for?
Of the Association’s proposed budgeted expenses for 2026, 56% is for the maintenance of the brick entrances on Wolf River Blvd., as detailed above. The remaining budgeted expenses include 14% for social gatherings, activities & prizes, 12% for insurance, 10% for communications & postal costs, 3% for annual fee processing, 2% for contingencies, and 3% for other fees and expenses. Our bookkeeping and membership records are maintained by volunteer board members and no Association money is spent for those tasks.
Are members-only events restricted only to neighborhood residents?
Members are welcome to bring children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews to our Association events.
Are there any members-only events geared to adults?
Our Spring Block Party is largely for adults, featuring a live band and food truck. Our annual Germantown Night Out (Cop Stop) event on the first Tuesday of October also draws a large number of adults. We also like to bring in food trucks that adults can enjoy at various other times.
