• Nonantum Mills Maintenance Corp
• Hires private contractors to clear our roads of
  snow and ice.
• Maintains the private open space in the
  community, with lawn mowing, tree maintenance and
  tree removal.
• Maintains the Nonantum Entrance Stormwater
  Management pond. We perform the minor
  maintenance including grass-cutting, removing
  vegetation and trash, and keeping the inlet and
  outlet pipes clear. By agreeing to perform the
  routine maintenance, New Castle County will
  perform the major maintenance in the future under
  the NCC Stormwater Amnesty Program. This will
  save our homeowners a large expense in the future
  when major repairs are needed!
• Is about to launch a new community website at
  NonantumMills.net and ChapelWoods.net.
• Maintains an email listing of over 70
  neighborhood residents to advise them of any
  important updates. Please provide your email if
  you would like to be added!

• Nonantum Mills Civic Association
• Maintains the Nonantum Mills Front Entrance
  landscaping. Volunteers are needed to coordinate
  this in 2013.
• Maintains the sidewalk and grass on Old Paper
  Mill Road next to Nonantum Mills.
• Enforces Nonantum Mills deed restrictions.

Both groups are volunteer organizations made up
of your neighbors. This year we are in desperate
need of volunteers to continue this mission as
two board members are not returning! See roles
on flip side to see if you can share your talents
and avoid turning these functions over to a
Property Management Company. Annual dues will
likely double or triple if we do not receive 4 to
5 volunteers. Contact Kim at 302-420-4200 or

Volunteer Today!

• Small Commitment
• The boards typically meet once per month for 1
  hour.
• Board members can focus on one large specialty or
  a few smaller ones. The typical time commitment
  is only 2 to 4 hours per month.
• You do not have to join the board to help! You
  can simply volunteer to be on a committee to
  carry out one or two specifics tasks.
• Volunteers receive no monetary compensation but
  will benefit by keeping the annual dues 50 lower
  than a professional management company would.
  You can meet some new neighbors, refine your
  skills, and have a voice in your community!
