General Meeting 2012

Kernan Hornburg — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 05:51:41 +0000

Thursday, February 23rd – 6:30 to 8:30 pm at the Milwood Public Library on Adelphi/Amherst

Items that we plan to have on the agenda at this time are:

- Items related to Balcones Park/Bike trails etc.

- Some meet and greet with our police reps and park reps

- Annual Board Elections.

A more complete agenda will be circulated before the meeting as we work out details.

If you are interested in making a presentation or just offering up a topic for discussion/consideration please either post to the listserve or contact me privately so we can be sure that time is allowed.

If anyone is interested in standing for election to the board, please also advise so that your name and intentions will be known to the membership. In the past couple of years, in the absence of anyone else running, we have called for a simple vote of confidence to continue the existing board, but if there are others willing and interested, we would have a formal vote.

ReZoning Case Off Waters Park

Javier — Sat, 30 Jul 2011 12:24:04 +0000

The property across from Weirdo’s on O’Neal has applied for a zoning change to a Commercial status. I believe Walnuts should be interested in what is planned for these sites, as they can have very beneficial or adverse impacts on our neighborhood. Depending on its planned use it could impact traffic on Adelphi, and as a neighborhood we should advocate that increased commercial use of that street cannot occur without accompanying improvements to that street such as sidewalks.
