Sunland North April 2024 Board Meeting

The April 2024 meeting of the Board of Directors for Sunland Division 17 will take place on Wednesday, April 10, at 2:30 p.m. The agenda for the meeting can be found at the top of the Agendas and Minutes page, or you can go directly to the agenda.

Among the topics to be discussed will be SLOA’s installation of road cameras, renewal of Sunland North’s association insurance, and changes in state law on homeowners associations.

Finishing work on roundabout

Work has restarted on the Sequim-Dungeness Way — Woodcock Road roundabout. The work is projected to last from April 27 through May 5, depending on weather, recalcitrant Canada geese, and maybe an invasion of militant gerbils. There may be traffic delays.

If you want to avoid the construction, the attached map (based on Google Maps) shows three different paths into and out of Sunland North:
 
Yellow — take a right on Woodcock Road to the first intersection, turn left (north) on Taylor Ranch Road, and you will end up on Sequim-Dungeness Way heading north. From there you can continue on to Anderson Road, Three Cays Road-Old Olympic Highway, and, eventually, Port Angeles. Or, in reverse order, reach here.
 
Red — take a right on Woodcock Road and continue as it loops south to Holland Road. From there you can reach Port Williams Road, where turning right (west) will take you into Sequim, or turning left (east) will take you to Schmuck Road and, possibly, a herd of elk.
 
Green — head south and up Blakely Blvd to upper Sunland. Turn west (right) onto Fairway Drive, and it will loop around to end at Taylor Road. Take a right on Taylor and that will take you to Sequim-Dungeness Way and, eventually, Sequim.
 
Above all, exercise patience.

Avoiding Sequim-Dungeness Way and Woodcock Road construction

December 12, 2021

Several have noted it is difficult to explain to contractors, relatives, friends, delivery drivers, migrating sasquatch, etc., how to get into Sunland North without going through the Sequim-Dungeness Way and Woodcock Road construction. As the roundabout construction may last into April of next year, this is not a temporary problem.

The attached map (based on Google Maps) shows three different paths into and out of Sunland North:
 
Yellow — take a right on Woodcock Road to the first intersection, turn left (north) on Taylor Ranch Road, and you will end up on Sequim-Dungeness Way heading north. From there you can continue on to Anderson Road, Three Cays Road-Old Olympic Highway, and, eventually, Port Angeles. Or, in reverse order, reach here.
 
Red — take a right on Woodcock Road and continue as it loops south to Holland Road. From there you can reach Port Williams Road, where turning right (west) will take you into Sequim, or turning left (east) will take you to Schmuck Road and, possibly, a herd of elk.
 
Green — head south and up Blakely Blvd to upper Sunland. Turn west (right) onto Fairway Drive, and it will loop around to end at Taylor Road. Take a right on Taylor and that will take you to Sequim-Dungeness Way and, eventually, Sequim.
 
Above all, exercise patience.

Work on intersection of Sequim-Dungeness Way and Woodcock Road

November 15, 2021
 
After the bracing rains of the past week and today’s refreshing windstorm, it is supposed to be boring and sunny tomorrow.
 
But next week we will have pavement pulverizing and grinding as the existing asphalt at the Sequim-Dungeness and Woodcock Road intersection is removed. The work is scheduled for Monday, November 22 through Wednesday, November 24, with changes possible depending on the weather. You can read about it here:
 
 
Alternative routes into Sequim include heading south on Blakely Blvd. through upper Sunland and then out Taylor Blvd., or heading east on Woodcock, south on Holland, and then saying “Hi!” to the elk on Port Williams Road before proceeding into town.
 
As the Clallam County site notes, the work is expected to be completed by April, 2022. Meanwhile, you can brush up on roundabouts:
