Neighborhood Watch Update – New Watch Committee Lead!

Neighborhood Watch Update – New Watch Committee Lead!

by | Jan 24, 2018 | | 0 Comments

Hello!  My name is Eamonn Garvey, your new Neighborhood Watch Committee Lead!  I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and let you know I am available anytime to answer any questions or concerns you may have.  A little about me, I grew up in Burke and moved to Hayfield Farm in August 2017 into the house my wife grew up in.  We have 2 great children, 9 year old daughter and 7 week old son (we’ll get sleep again in a few months.. hopefully).

I decided to volunteer with the Neighborhood Watch because I feel it is one of the most important yet overlooked aspects of our community and I want to do my part to keep my family and my neighbors as safe as I can.  With that being said, I can’t do it alone, I need YOUR help!

I want everyone to have the opportunity to meet me and learn more about the Neighborhood Watch Committee and what we do to help keep our neighborhood safe, so I have planned for an informal meet up on Saturday, February 3 at 10am at the park.  Please bring your kids to play and any questions you might have, I will have a signup sheet if anyone is interested in volunteering to gather contact info. I foresee us have a minimum of 2 nightly watches a month, typically from 10:30pm- 1am.

The Hayfield Citizens Association Neighborhood Watch is a volunteer program designed to deter crime and keep our neighborhood safe via patrolling the neighborhood on designated dates during the evening hours.  Established in 1978, the Hayfield Citizens Association Neighborhood Watch was one of the first neighborhood watch programs established in the U.S. and became a model for other communities to follow.

Why Join Neighborhood Watch?

– Give back to our community by keeping it safe;

– Help your neighbors directly by keeping an eye out for suspicious activity or people.

To learn more, join Me Saturday, February 3rd at 10am at the park, email me at hayfieldfarmwatch@gmail.com, or call/ text at 571-340-1240.

Look forward to meeting everyone and helping keep our neighborhood safe for all to enjoy!

At the Hayfield Farm HCA General Meeting, there was an update on the Stormwater Pipe System. Click on image on the right (for 1-17-18) to view details in the presentation. Here are some highlights from the meeting:

  • Washington Gas started relocation work on September 6, 2017 and completed it December 8, a month early. Concrete restorations (sidewalk and curbs) await warmer weather.
  • The east (Hayfield Park) side of Hayfield Road will be paved soon, depending on weather. All of Hayfield Road will be milled and paved at the end of the project.
  • Dominion Energy has begun work to relocate/raise lines; their work should complete in April 2018 (or sooner), weather permitting.
  • Cox Communications & Verizon will follow by raising their lines; each company is expected to complete in 30 days.
  • The final plan is expected in April 2018. Fairfax County will post the plan on their web site and the link will be provided when available. Meanwhile John Millikin has a paper copy of the 100-page (almost final) plan.
  • Stormwater pipe construction is expected to start this summer or early fall 2018 and to take 12 to 18 months, partly depending on weather.
  • The next update from Dave Anglin (Project Manager) is planned for the May 16, 2018HCA meeting.

More details are in the presentation.

The Hayfield Citizens Association would like you to run for office on our HCA Board!
We have started the process of nominating new board members to be elected by members of the HCA in May. Our HCA is a volunteer run citizens association comprised of residents of the neighborhood and represents the community in many county, district, and community committees as needed to provide valuable information to the community so that we remain one of the most active and county wide voices of the area.
The following HCA Board roles are elected annually and cannot serve more than two terms in a row. Our nomination process, to be successful, needs volunteers for a variety of Board positions including:
 a) President,
 b) Vice president,
 c) Treasurer, and
 d) Corporate Counsel.
Hayfield Farm is a community of 689 homes located in the Alexandria section of Fairfax County Virginia, we have been around since the mid-1960’s and just hit our 50 year anniversary.
Please check out our website http://www.hayfieldfarmva.com/  and let us know what role you would like to run for. Help us provide a voice for Hayfield during a time where we all need to be heard. We can and will make you feel welcome to the new board.
