Thanks to the hard work of Patrick, Eric, Mary, Pat and our street captains the neighborhood meeting last Sunday (Feb 21) was a success, in spite of the beautiful weather.
Our representative on the Dekalb School Board, Don McChesney, came by for a few minutes to update us on our neighborhood schools (Briar Vista, Shamrock and Druid Hills) and answered questions from neighbors.
Debbie Schneider of Commissioner Rader's office attended to give us an update on what the county is doing currently with RIODs (Residential Infill Overlay Districts).
Mary gave a report on activities of the Traffic and Transit Committee. She has heard from the county traffic folks and has scheduled a meeting with them on Friday, Feb 26.
Patrick talked about this website for improving the communications with the neighbors and a draft policy regarding the civic association's use of email addresses.
I gave an update on the North Druid Hills LCI project including an announcement that the final open house session will be held this Thursday, Feb 25 from 6:30-8:30 at the International School (formerly Kitteridge) on N. Druid Hills Rd. across from Target. See http://www.northdruidhillslci.com/.
Patrick also talked about planned activities in Thomson Park to get control of invasive plants, namely privet and ivy.
Be sure to hold Sunday, April 18 for the Spring picnic.

Harvey, thanks for posting the update while I'm traveling! (And thanks to Mary for providing the transit update.)
ReplyDeleteI do have good Internet access here, so this week I'll be sending an email blast to our list. I'll include a link to the blog, so we'll start to see some traffic here.
