06.13.11 CNA General Meeting Minutes

Update on CNPCT
Elections will take place the 3rd Monday in August, 6:30pm, at the Crestview Methodist Church. The July meeting will take place the 3rd Monday in July. They need at least 12 people to elect officers.

Don will post a link to the neighborhood plan on the CNA website

Ice cream social
This will be in place of the July meeting.
Tonia received approval from Tony to hold the social on July 17, 11am-1pm. We also need to talk to Ronny of the IGA beforehand.
Kat, Susan and Emily will bring coolers.
Emily, Kat, and Deanna will bring tables.
Don will bring the canopy.
Invitations for tables will be made to Sustainable Neighborhoods (Jonathan), Violet Crown (Susan), and Friends of Brentwood Park (Emily).
CNA will have a membership table.
There will be a raffle – Target of 6-8 raffle gifts, suggested $25 gift certificates for the IGA and the Little Deli [we voted to buy], and Eddie and Denise will contact other organizations for donations. Membership not required, 1 winner per household.
Kat will contact last year’s DJ (w/ PA and sound system) and musicians to see if they’d be willing to perform again.
Emily will ask the Fire Department can bring their truck.

Display Case
Groups will be allowed to share half of the display case between the IGA and the pharmacy if they are a volunteer organization doing things for the community. Decide on a case by case basis. If we have something to put in, it will go in. Multiple requests for the space will either share or be on a first-come first-served basis. CNA stuff (ice cream social pics, etc.) takes precedence. 30 day duration. [Voted OK]

Future Meeting Structure/General Calendar
Topics for each month – Safety, gardening, planning/zoning, elections, etc. Deanna will send out a theme/month match-up list. These things will not take up time for business, and hot issues will take precedence.

Denise was elected for Place 3.

Establish a Crestview Google Group? Don will ask Jonathan about it, since it already exists.

Jonathan asked for an update on the traffic calming at the next meeting. Emily will contact Steve Dobie (or Gary Shatz, the assistant director of transportation with the city) to find out the status. Adopt a median idea.

We will vote on the funding policy that Eddie passed out in August. Eddie will send Don a final electronic version to post on the CNA website.

There is a request to turn the liquor store on the Highland side of Lamar into a bus depot.
