Dan welcomed neighbor Robert Hroinsky to the meeting. He lives just down the street on Upper.
Dan advised us that going forward neighborhoods receiving Neighborhood Enhancement Grants would have to pay for the service or product their neighborhood was awarded and then request reimbursement from the City. Dan talked to the City and was promised that reimbursement would be quick and likely take place in a day or two.
Dan advised that the City Parks and Rec will sponsor a Farmers Market event in Lake Grove on October 24. Members commented that there was little publicity for this and there were concerns that attendance could suffer.
Dan noted an upcoming Pre-Ap PA 21-0101 for tax lot 4300 onNovember 4 at 1:15 pm. This is the island property between Upper and Boones Ferry by the Pamplin property. Dan will attend.
