III.	Announcements & Additions to Agenda:

organizing us.

IV.	New Business.

a.	Co-op would like to change some of their parking spaces to diagonal 
rather than parallel; they are seeking our input.

b.	S. Tracy at the last meeting reported his concern about high fencing 
around front yards.  In an update, he notes that there had been a theft 
at the church on the corner of 8th and B St. which is directly across 
the street from such a fence. He stated that a fence like this allows 
more freedom for those who are liable to speed, steal or engage in 
vandalism.

c.	637 F is on the market and 602 D has just sold.

d.	There was a question regarding the process to report yards that are 
not mowed and are presenting a hazard as well as looking tacky. This 
was called a “blight” issue and it was suggested these homes be 
reported to City Planning.

e.	There was discussion about the home on E street that is adding a 
second story (the addition is within Guidelines) and how it may cause 
privacy issues.  While this was brought up at meetings on the 
guidelines, no one appeared to be concerned at that time.

V.	Old Business.

a.	Parking District.  Markings have been placed on C street. The signs 
are not up and there has been no notification on how one is to purchase 
the permits. There is no information on when the rest of the 
neighborhood would be completed.


b.	Street Sweeping.  Public works has agreed to the alternate side of 
the street sweeping. The days will be Thursdays and Fridays from 6-10 
am. This should occur in about 3-4 weeks.

c.	Fifth & F Streets: S. Tracy reported on the upcoming, May 12th 
presentation of the PW and ONDNA proposals to the Safety Advisory 
Commission.  He urged residents to turn out and speak about their 
concerns.

d.	Alley Garbage Service: There are no changes to report.

e.	Zoning & In-fill.  There was continued discussion of the 
implications for Old North of the proposals for B Street, and sentiment 
to be fully supportive of U/Rice Lane residents resistance to high 
density in-fill along this corridor.
