The National Park Service approved listing the Indera Mills complex on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999, recognizing its role in the broad textile industry development that occurred in Winston-Salem in the early years of the twentieth century. To acknowledge and herald this honor, the Board has unanimously approved mounting handsome bronze plaques on Building 1, Building 2, Building 3, and Unit 155.

THIS IS NOT A COA-FUNDED PROJECT.

Rather, we are asking those of us who live and work in this unique community to share the cost.

TOTAL COST $1,215

It is with heavy hearts that the Board makes known that longtime resident Bucky Dennis passed away last night. He and his wife Nancy are among the very first owners at The Mill. For many years together they added so much enthusiasm, warmth, and steadfast loyalty to our neighborhood. Bucky will be greatly missed.

B2 Keypad Update

August 23, 2022 /

Thank you for your patience as we work on fixing the keypad on the East side of your building. Wes Waters has been working toward a solution and troubleshooting the issue with help from Patrick Turner.

They have engaged the company that installed Building 3’s keypad; however, the gentleman who will help has a family emergency, so he will not be able to come out until next week. (His father is in the hospital.)

If the issue were as easy as replacing the keypad, we would have taken care of it by now; unfortunately, something internal is going on that requires professional help.

We will keep you posted as the issue unfolds.

Thanks,

The COA Board

Please be mindful of your recycling.

July 8, 2022 /

This morning, a sign on the recycling bins cited problems with materials left in the recycling bins, which resulted in the city not emptying some of our bins.

According to the guidelines, pizza boxes and loose plastic bags are not eligible for the recycling program.

PLEASE be mindful of what you put in the blue bins. We have many people using only a few bins and cannot afford to have them not emptied weekly. Please refer to Forsyth County guidelines for what is and is not accepted. 

Shrub Trimming

June 20, 2022 /

The landscaping team will be trimming shrubs throughout the community tomorrow. 

If you park your car in the large Wachovia lot along the hedge row that borders the creek, we ask that you park elsewhere tomorrow to allow workers to use ladders.

Thank you, 

The Mill at Tar Branch COA
