LANDSCAPING AT CARAVAN AND CLYMER ENTRANCES
We are pleased to announce completion of landscaping at Caravan and Clymer entrances as part of the Independence screening wall project. CLICK HERE or click on the image to the left for details.
ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DUES NOW BEING COLLECTED
It’s that time of year again to pay your WHOA V/VI/VII dues. The fiscal year for our HOA begins on April 1st. Timely payment of dues avoids the expense of mailing out invoices in the near future as well as multiple follow up communications. To those who have already paid your dues for 2025-2026, THANK YOU! Our HOA is voluntary and we depend totally on your dues to fund the cost of maintaining our entrance landscaping, plantings, utilities (electricity for lighting the entrances and water for irrigating the plants), holiday decorations, special events and administrative expenses.
TO PAY BY CHECK, mail a $145 check (payable to WHOA) to the Whiffletree mailbox (PMB 288, 3948 Legacy Dr, Ste 106, Plano, TX 75023).
TO PAY BY CREDIT CARD OR PAYPAL, go to the “Pay Dues” tab on our website, www.mywhiffletreehoa.com. Online payments are $150 due to incremental charges by the payment processors.
As promised earlier this year, the WHOA entered the names and addresses of residents who paid their 2025 dues by April 30th into a lottery to receive free dues for next year. The winners were Jim Stoebner and Seung Park of 3312 Wolfe Court. Congratulations Jim & Seung and thank you paying WHOA early.
Paid members receive our annual neighborhood Directory. This past year, the Board voted to deploy an Online Directory of Whiffletree V/VI/VII residents which is updated throughout the year as new residents move in or Household Information changes. However, paid residents are able to request a printed version if they choose.
Looking for Volunteers
If you have an interest in a board position or if you would like to support your neighborhood in other ways, we would like to talk to you.

We will reach out to you to discuss your interests. Your support is greatly appreciated.
SCREENING WALL Replacement Plans (Update)
The screening wall along Independence has been completed and sod has been installed. The City of Plano has approved Whiffletree HOA proposal for new landscaping and irrigation at the Clymer and Caravan entrances. We will be using the same landscaping company as we used in 2020 at Marchman and Harvey entrances. Timing for the landscape project is TBD but definitely by Spring. Will all look great when completed!

About the Whiffletree V-VII Homeowners Association
The Whiffletree V-VII Homeowners Association is a residential subdivision comprised of 477 homes. It is a family-oriented neighborhood which is located just north of Legacy Drive, east of Coit Road in Plano, Texas.
Any resident of the Whiffletree V-VII neighborhood can become a paid member of the Homeowners Association. It doesn't matter if you are renting or if you own your home. We welcome all residents.
We want to formally welcome all new residents and hope each of you finds caring neighbors and a friendly atmosphere that add so much to the quality of life here in Whiffletree V-VII.
Whiffletree Recognized as Plano BEST Neighborhood (Platinum Level)
Whiffletree has again been designated a BEST Platinum Neighborhood by the City of Plano. This award renews our Platinum Neighborhood status originally received in 2016. Whiffletree showed evaluators in Plano Neighborhood Services that it is an exceptional neighborhood filled with caring and engaged neighbors. This is a significant award. Only 3 neighborhoods received this designation this year. We should all be proud of this accomplishment!
Plano has eliminated the 5 year renewal application process and migrated to what they term Continuing BEST Credits (CBC) where Platinum Neighborhoods will need to complete a number of identified tasks in each of the BEST categories (Beautiful, Engaged, Safe and Thriving) within a 2-year period to retain its Platinum designation. The positives of this system is that the tasks are understood beforehand, Whiffletree and other Platinum Neighborhood are able to contribute to the list of tasks in each category, and the list of tasks in each category may number 7-8 items where we would need to successfully complete 5 tasks to earn the required points to retain Whiffletree Platinum Designation forever!
Thank You to current and past Whiffletree HOA Board Members, the many active volunteers and especially, you our neighbors for making Whiffletree and exceptional neighborhood.
Whiffletree Neighborhood – Be a Good Neighbor
- Be friendly and welcoming to all.

Watering Guidelines
for Apr 1 - Oct 31
Plano residents and businesses are asked to only water a maximum of twice per week from April 1 to October 31.
- Residential addresses with an even number (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8) as their last digit water Mondays and Thursdays.
- Residential addresses with an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7 and 9) as their last digit water Tuesdays and Fridays.
The City of Plano also recommends that we follow these guidelines as well:
- Only water when needed and only on your assigned watering days. You may not need to water if rain is in the forecast. Subscribe to WaterMyYard.org for weekly watering recommendations.
- Watering with sprinklers between 10 am and 6 pm is prohibited, as these are the hottest hours of the day.
- Foundations and landscaping, including grass, shrubs and trees, may be watered for up to 2 hours any day by a hand-held hose or soaker hose.
- Low-flow drip irrigation systems may operate as needed.
- Excessive water runoff and watering during rain is prohibited.
- A variance may be requested to water new landscapes for up to 30 days. Read the Water Variance Procedures (PDF) for instructions. Variances are not required for filling pools.
