What is the difference between the Section Board and the WHOA?
The Woodlands is divided in several sections. Each section has its own board that manages some specific regulations that may be different from section to section, things like monthly maintenance fees, the clubhouse uses, pool restrictions, or lawn maintenance, but the WHOA supersedes each section, representing The Woodlands as a whole and can also impose some restrictions to The Woodlands as a whole.
Who selects the Financial Management company?
The WHOA selects it for all sections. While each section can give their input (or complain if they feel the management company is not doing a good job) the section board can’t decide independently over the management company.

I just saw a Coyote. What can we do about them?
Because The Woodlands has many wooded areas in and around the perimeter of our neighborhood, it makes an excellent home for Coyotes. These animals are omnivores (plant/fruit and animal eaters) and small wild animals and pets are food source. They can’t be legally killed except if they posed an immediate/clear threat and they can’t be relocated.
If you see coyotes in The Woodlands, contact the South Florida Wildlife Care Center at (954) 524-4302. If seen, do not approach or feed them. Coyotes may look similar to domestic dogs, as it appears that they have bred with them. To reduce the chance of an attack, avoid excessive foliage growth, and remove outdoor pet food. Walk dogs on a leash (as required by law), and keep cats indoors. If approached by a coyote, police-strength pepper spray (SABRE) will likely deter them.
Coyotes were here before us and they are here to stay. If you don’t want your animals to get hurt by a coyote, make sure you always have an eye on them and do not let them roam alone.
