the

I

okay,
I'm
not
seeing
courtney
either.
So
it
appears
we
have
10
and
with
that
I'm
going
to
move
along
and
for
james,
steve
and
elizabeth
starting
with
james.
If
you
just
take
a
moment
sort
of,
maybe
let
us
know
who
you
represent,
even
though
it's
kind
of
obvious
on
our
chart
but
who
you
represent,
and
how
and
why
you
decided
to
serve
the
nla
and
your
community,
starting
with
james.
D
So
gotcha
all
right
thanks,
hans
yeah,
I
actually
go
by
jamie.
My
formal
name
is
james
and
that's
what
I
use
an
official
correspondence,
but
I
welcome
you
all
to
call
me
jamie
here
on
the
nla
looking
forward
to
representing
the
larkspur,
neighborhood
and
yeah
excited
to
be
here,
excited
to
represent
the
neighborhood
and
hopefully
make
some
positive
change
here
for
our
growing
community.
D
A
A
B
Let's
try
it
again:
yeah,
okay,
so
again,
steve
pine
with
the
mountain
view,
neighborhood
I've
been
in
that
on
the
board
for
about
probably
a
little
over
a
year,
and
I
am
excited
to
be
part
of
this
thing.
I
I
worked
with
the
chair
to
make
this
transition
to
see
just
how
we
can
keep
ourselves
represented.
We
are,
in
fact,
the
biggest
of
the
group,
the
most
most
populous
of
the
neighborhoods,
any
of
it
yeah,
I'm
glad
to
be
here
and
I'm
hoping
to
learn
a
great
deal.
A
C
C
A
Okay,
thank
you
moving
on
and
welcome
all
three
of
you
it's
nice
to
have
you
with
us.
Next
item
is
to
approve
the
minutes
and
I
do
have
before
we
entertain
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes.
I'd
like
to
point
out
that,
on
page
three
of
the
minutes,
second,
paragraph
down
beginning
with
member
muscle,
wanted
verification
the
last
sentence.
There
reads
there
are
three
or
four
neighborhoods
where
the
active
was
defiantly
increased.
I
think
that
the
correct
sentence
should
read
where
the
activity
was
definitely
increased,
as
reported
by
lieutenant
burley
other
than
that.
A
E
B
E
E
A
A
A
F
I
can
do
that.
We
have
received
two
public
comments
which
I
sent
out
at
noon
today.
One
was
from
the
larkspur
neighborhood
association
requesting
the
mla
form
a
joint
working
group
consisting
of
both
nla
and
members
to
address
the
issue
with
or
address
the
fireworks
illegal
fireworks
issue
with
npd.
F
A
Okay,
thank
you
and
next
up
we
want
to
address,
which
is
timely.
Our
strategic
plan
and
our
updated
road
map
remember
for
those
that
are
new
to
the
committee
early
on
our
first
order
of
business
was
sort
of
getting
established
a
little
bit
creating
policies
and
procedures,
and
we
eventually
created
a
strategic
plan
and
a
roadmap
of
activities.
A
I
think
ultimately,
one
of
the
things
we
want
to
speak
to.
We
spoke
to
strengths
and
weaknesses
and
threats,
and
I
think
that
particular
piece
is
worth
visiting
again:
city
staff
council.
There
was
a
lot
of
input
to
this,
but
this
document
is
the
document
at
hand.
It
is
a
living
document,
if
you
will,
that
is
we
can
change
it
on
occasion,
but
it
is.
A
It
is
our
I
think,
our
direction
for
now
and
kayla
if
you
scroll
down,
maybe
unless
I'm
missing
something
and
I'll
look
forward
to
hearing
that,
let's
stop
at
a
vision
for
a
second
vision
and
mission.
We
spent
a
fair
amount
of
time
on
this,
and
I
I
know
I
come
back
to
the
mission
quite
often,
but
the
vision
is
really
speaking
to
what
the
biannual
survey
of
2018
and
the
nla
agreed
is
that,
although
growth
is
inevitable,
the
real
issue
for
residents
is
livability,
it's
the
effects
of
the
growth.
A
I
think
we're
recognizing
that
in
our
vision
that
long-term
livability
is
the
issue,
and
our
mission
has
always
been
to
promote
between
neighborhoods
and
the
city
to
promote
trust.
We're
constantly
trying
to
do
that.
We're
trying
to
be
transparent,
we're
trying
to
be
open
and
accepting
all
that
is,
is
kind
of
in
the
fabric
of
what
we're
trying
to
do
here
going
through
the
goals.
I
I
think
I'm
going
to
take
the
the
highlight
of
the
goals.
A
We
are
a
resource
to
city
council.
We
have
stressed
many
times
that
that
means
that,
as
a
resources
city
council,
we
are
in
a
position
and
we
have
a
responsibility
to
report
to
city
council
on
certain
items,
and
we
are
also
in
a
position
to
act
on
behalf
of
city
council's
direction
in
matters
like
land
use,
which
we
are
working
on
very
much
and
also.
A
I
would
point
out
that
within
that
first
goal,
one
of
the
last
things
that
we
know
that
we
need
to
do
and
we
identified
this
early
in
the
process-
was
a
review
of
na
boundaries.
We
know
that
the
way
that
neighborhood
associations
are
configured
and
over
time,
demographics,
shifting
development
of
the
city
as
a
whole.
We
know
that
there's.
A
The
second
goal
was
really
focused
on
communication.
We
later
kind
of
rebranded
the
communication
effort
as
outreach,
and
we
were
able
to
do
that
because
the
city
council
and
supported
us
with
a
full-time
position
in
michaela
and
that
allowed
us
to
not
have
to
craft
all
our
own
communication
but
to
to
basically
really
focus
on
the
outreach
piece.
Since
we
have
a
full
time
person
dedicated
to
the
nla
and
the
nas,
we
will
report
on
that
from
time
to
time
and
probably
later
later
today,
but
this
piece
is
really
focused
right
now.
A
A
You
know
the
weaknesses,
the
thing
that
really
struck
me
here
and
it's
interesting
because,
as
we
have
three
new
members,
those
of
us
that
started
this
with
this
committee
a
couple
years
ago,
I
think
we're
down
to
four
or
five
of
the
original
13
and
so
turnover,
as
I
would
mention,
is,
is
an
issue.
It
will
continue
to
be
initial,
an
issue
for
us,
it's
an
issue
at
board
levels
in
neighborhood
associations,
and
it
reminds
me
that
we
all
should
be
cognizant
of
having
you
know
some
discussions
within
our
boards
about
succession
planning.
A
A
I
think
we
understand
that
there's
a
lot
of
opportunity
there,
part
of
the
opportunity.
Frankly,
when
we
talk
about
turnover,
is
fresh
ideas,
people
with
different
backgrounds,
bringing
new
perspectives.
So
that's
the
upside
of
having
new
faces
on
the
committee.
I
think
that's
a
good
thing,
obviously,
there's
a
training
and
a
learning
curve
and
then
the
threats,
I
don't
think
anyone
would
have
had
the
foresight
to
think
about
a
pandemic,
but
certainly
resistance
to
change
or
staff
capacity.
A
Those
are
realities,
but
I
think
if
we
continue
to
communicate
effectively
if
we're
transparent,
if
we
encourage
the
voice,
that's
maybe
in
contrast
to
them
to
the
majority.
If
we
listen,
I
think
that's
going
to
facilitate
not
just
the
pace
of
the
change,
but
again
that
trust
element
that
we're
always
working
to
do
we'll
talk
about
the
outstanding
topics
a
little
bit
later.
I
think
after
we
hear
from
the
working
groups,
we
can
revisit
these
outstanding
topics,
the
roadmap
and
apologies.
A
If
sometimes,
the
roadmap
looks
a
little
busy,
but
the
roadmap
really
speaks
to
specifics
in
a
timeline
frame.
It
comes.
Obviously
the
high
level
starts
with
a
strategic
plan,
and
then
we
drill
down
to
achieve
the
things
we're
aiming
to
do
and
michaela
were
you
planning
for
lisa
to
speak
to
this,
or
did
you
want
to
take
it.
F
F
You
can
see
what
points
we
hit
throughout
the
year
for
this
first
one
in
in
january,
we
did
information,
information
gathering
with
our
stakeholders,
so
starting
in
january
this
year
we
had
a
survey
and
that's
what
this
is
trying
to
outline.
We
did
a
survey
for
the
community
or
we
started
to
draft
a
survey
for
the
community
and
we
pulled
in
all
of
the
neighborhood
association
land
use
chairs
to
help
us
on
that
and
then
moving
forward.
We
ended
up.
F
F
F
What
we
do
know
is
in
the
future.
Here
they
were
hoping
in
september
that
we
would
have
a
tentative
city
view
launch
and
we're
still
waiting
on
an
update
for
that.
So
my
plan
with
this
roadmap
is
to
send
out
the
most
recent
version,
with
a
small
snapshot
before
every
nla
meeting,
so
that
you
can
see
what
the
status
is
on
some
of
these
goals,
and
I
know
each
of
you
have
different
interests.
That's
why
you're
on
the
nla,
some
of
you
are
involved
in
our
land
use
working
group.
F
Some
of
you
are
helping
with
communications,
and
so
you
can
really
use
this
just
as
what
it
is
a
road
map
for
the
next
six
months
or
a
year.
However
long
you
want
to
look
out,
and
it's
just
helping
us
make
sure
that
we're
staying
on
target
and
meeting
our
goals,
one
of
the
ones
that
we
had
talked
about
in
the
strategic
plan
was
the
neighborhood
boundaries,
and
this
has
shifted.
F
Originally,
we
had
wanted
to
start
this.
We
talked
about
it
in
march
and
we
wanted
to
start
a
working
group
for
that,
but
because
of
the
inability
to
meet
virtually
for
a
little
while
and
then
the
pivot
to
this,
we
just
haven't
taken
it
up
yet,
and
it's
slowly
been
moved
out
to
september
of
this
year
is
when
they
start.
This
is
very
fluid.
We
can
have
conversations
about
this
if
we
don't
feel
like
we're
going
to
be
able
to
meet
a
goal
within
a
reasonable
time
frame.
A
I
would
I
would
point
out,
especially
for
for
new
members
that
don't
even
may
not
be
familiar
with
our
process.
You
know,
I
think
everyone
knows
that
council
believe
it
or
not.
Before
too
awfully
long
is
going
to
start
talking
about
goals
for
the
next
biennium
and
the
nla
as
well
starts
thinking
about
goals
in
a
biennium
time
frame.
We
too
look
at
the
biannual
survey
that
will
be
done
later
this
year.
That's
a
valuable
document
that
tells
us
how
residents
feel
and
how
they
prioritize
activities
quite
likely
that
may
drive
council
goals.
A
A
So
if
we
get
some
surprises
because
of
a
city
survey
or
or
if
there's
a
change
in
the
climate
of
our
city
or
if
our
neighborhood
associations
come
to
us
and
say,
hey,
there's
been
a
seismic
shift
in
the
perspective
on
something
we
will
revisit
that
and,
if
necessary,
we'll
present
that
to
council.
If
we
feel
it
warrants
it.
G
They
do
so
it'll
it'll
be
an
informal
requirement
or
an
informal
ask
basically
that
that
visit
then
do
that
as
well
as
go
through
the
the
bdap
but
and
then
in
future
years
it
would,
it
would
become
a
part
of
the
the
contract
with
them,
but
so
in
the
general
gist
of
it
is
how
do
you,
how
do?
How
does
the
kind
of
tourism
and
how
we
promote
tourism
affect
the
livability
with
our
from
our
community
for
our
community?
It's
not
so
much
from
a
business
perspective.
Is
this.
G
You
know
fill
up
our
restaurants
and
hotels
and
things
it's
more
of
the
nla's
perspective
would
be
like.
When
do
we
advertise
do
we
have
to
have
some
shoulder
seasons?
Who
do
we
advertise
to
everything,
but
it
might
because
it's
a
big
enough
effort
to
actually
review
that
and
get
a
perspective
on
it.
You'll
probably
take
two
or
three
meetings
anyway
to
think
about
it.
A
Well,
thank
you
for
that
bill
and
we'll
get
that
coordinated
on
our
agendas
for
later
in
the
year.
I
I
think,
that's
very
important,
and
I
appreciate
it
because
again
it
speaks
to
the
livability
visit
band
has
been
immensely
successful
and
at
the
same
time
I
think
maybe
sometimes
the
course
direction,
especially
driven
by
resident
input,
would
be
appropriate.
G
A
F
F
F
So
how
much
will
that
realistically
cost
a
developer
and
those
are
the
kind
of
facts
that
will
be
brought
to
the
work
session
and
I
will
be
participating
to
speak
to
the
neighborhood
leadership
alliance
process
so,
where
we're
at
right
now,
it's
I
mean
really
good
news.
They
felt
that
our
suggestions
made
a
lot
of
sense
and
that
it
wouldn't
be
too
much
of
an
ask.
So
looking
forward
to
seeing
where
those
conversations
get
us.
A
H
No,
we
didn't
talk
in
advance
about
this,
so
I'm
going
to
start
off,
but
dave
get
ready
to
talk
so
take
yourself
off
mute.
I
thought
it
was
a
a
very
productive
meeting
to
give
everyone
a
little
bit
of
background
dave,
and
I
didn't
just
do
this
in
a
vacuum,
but
we
worked
with
sue
sullivan,
the
outgoing
larkspur
chair
and
the
prior
land
use
working
group
chair
and
many
of
you
recall
that
sue
was
the
person
that
attended
the
working
group
meetings
previously.
H
So
she
fully
debriefed
us,
but
we
also
had
two
members
of
bend
neighborhood
coalition
bill
bernardi
and
mike
walker,
who
also
helped
us
help
prepare
us
for
this
meeting.
We,
I
I
think
everyone
has
probably
seen
our
talking
points
and
you
know.
Thank
you
very
much.
If
you
have
watched
the
meeting,
I
really
appreciate
the
support.
I
know
dave
does
too
dave.
Do
you
want
to
give
your
overall
opinion
of
how
you
think
it
went
and
where,
where
we're
going
from
here.
I
H
I
also
wanted
to
add
and
thank
michaela
for
all
of
her
work.
She
participated
with
us
and
developed
the
survey
and
I
I
know
all
of
you
have
seen
the
survey
it
it
hit.
The
news
gosh
was
that
yesterday
morning
I
think,
or
this
morning
the
days
run
together,
but
the
survey
is
out
there.
It's
getting
some
traction
michaela,
any
idea
how
many
responses
we
have.
F
Yes,
so
I
can
show
you
it's
up
to
you
if
you
want
to
go
more
in
depth
at
this
point,
there's
still
three
days
left,
but
at
this
time
we
have
190
people
who
have
taken
the
survey.
I
think
it's
been,
I
mean
almost
24
hours,
so
that's
that's
pretty
good.
I
think
that
when
you
look
at
these
numbers,
our
first
question
here
was
based
on
the
description
about
micro
units
and
just
for
preface,
since
you
have
seen
it
I'll,
keep
it
short.
F
H
So
I
know
ian
could
probably
speak
to
that,
but
you
know
that
was.
That
was
one
of
the
things
that
we
we
really
felt
strongly
about
is
testing
this
out
in
a
particular
area
before
rolling
it
all
the
way
through
bend
where
we
go
from
here,
we've
got
the
survey
results
that
conclude
at
1
pm
on
thursday,
the
13th
of
august.
After
that
we
are
getting
ready
for
the
planning
commission
public
hearing,
which
is
on
monday,
the
24th.

What
that
means
to
everybody
attending
here
at
the
nla
today
is
that
we're
not
going
to
have
an
opportunity
to
get
back
together
with
the
nla
prior
to
the
planning
commission
public
hearing.
So
we
have
an
ask
of
everyone
today
and
that
ask
is
really
that
we
work
with
michaela
dave
and
I
and
the
land
use
working
group
that
meets
this
thursday
at
three
right,
michaela
thursday
at
three.
I
J
An
unequivocal
statement
that
doing
so
would
necessarily
present
a
fair
housing
problem
and
would
necessarily
subject
the
city
to
a
lawsuit
under
the
fair
housing
act
that
the
city
would
lose,
and
so
what
I
was
trying
to
do
was
clarify
that
and
say
well,
because
I
thought
that
was
a
little
bit
of
a
strong
statement.
The
the
fair
housing
act
prevents
either
intentional
discrimination
or,
and
it
also
it
also
recognizes
disparate
impact
claims
based
on
housing
and
so
just
predicting
that
claims
are.
J
It
arrives
from
zoning
decisions
that
local
officials
make
that
may
not
have
the
intent
of
segregating
people
based
on
protected
status,
but
have
the
effect
of
doing
that,
even
if
that's,
not
the
intent.
So
my
point
in
interjecting
that
fair
housing
bit
last
night
was
to
say
that
if
the
planning
commission
and
ultimately
council
decide
that
they
are
interested
in
micro
units
but
decide
hey,
we
we
maybe
don't
want
them
in
residential
areas.
We
want
them
in
other
places.
J
J
Does
it
necessarily
mean
that
the
city
would
be
violating
their
fair
housing
act,
which
is
other
committee?
Members
seem
to
be
suggesting?
No,
I
would
I
would
not
say
that
so
it
is
a
concern.
It
is
something
that
the
policymakers
are
going
to
have
to
think
through
as
this
sort
of
moves
on
down
the
road,
but
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
was
clarified.
K
G
J
Thing
to
dave
to
your
point
about
the
planning
commission's
response
last
night,
the
the
relative
lack
of
response
from
them
was
not
out
of
character
and
it's
a
work
session,
so
they
were
trying
to
take
in
information.
I
wouldn't
take
their
engagement
or
what
may
have
been
lack
of
questions
or
engagement
with
you
as
a
sign
that
they
weren't
receptive.
They
were
taking
in
information
and
they'll
do
their
deliberations
at
the
public
hearing
when
this
goes
to
them.
A
A
A
So
I'm
going
to
ask
kayla
to
record
that,
as
unanimously
approved
and
by
the
way
the
survey
does
cut
off
at
1
pm
on
thursday.
I
will
tell
you
I
rebuked.
I
took
the
lazy
way
and
took
lisa's
posting
and
reposted
it
on
our
facebook
page,
but
just
as
effective
stimulates
engagement,
maybe
an
opportunity
for
people
to
want
to
register
with
us.
A
H
I'm
not
sure
I
have
much
to
report
on
hootsuite
just
yet.
We've
been
working
on
planning,
commission
stuff
and
that's
kind
of
been
all
consuming
for
the
last
few
days
and
last
couple
of
weeks.
So
I
don't
have
a
a
good
update.
I
expect
that
I
should
have
something
in
the
next
few
days
for
for
hootsuite,
so
we
have
the
original
messaging
and
we
did
have
a
discussion
with
various
members
that
are
participating
with
hootsuite.
F
F
H
Michaela,
just
to
add
to
that,
I
have
promoted
these
signs
several
times
now
and
I
am
not
getting
many
requests.
So
I've
already
sold
half
of
my
signs
to
summit,
thankfully-
and
I
think
I
still
have
about-
I-
I'm
pretty
sure
I've
got
about
fines
available.
So
if
somebody's
just
looking
for
maybe
10
signs,
I
could
probably
give
some
up.
A
And
I
was
about
to
say
that
as
a
collateral
outcome,
the
availability
of
the
slowdown
signs.
I
think
there
were
some
mixed
opinions
about
the
effectiveness
of
slowdown
signs.
I
think
that's
maybe
an
understatement,
but
I
was
invited
to
starting
with
the
mixed
opinions
about
the
effectiveness.
I
was
invited
to
speak
on
kpov
regarding
speeding
and
band,
and
I
took
the
time
to
speak
with
lieutenant
burley.
A
I
spoke
with
karen
swersky
robin
lewis,
and
janet
ruby
and
streets
and
operations,
and
I
tried
to
to
kind
of
focus
on
the
three
e's
and
you
know,
we've
we've
heard
about
that
in
this
group
for
streets
and
operations.
You
know
education,
enforcement
and
engineering
and
we
do
have
limited
resources,
there's
only
four
officers
to
cover
speeding
and
bend.
A
We
had
plans
for
two
additional
positions:
that's
not
going
to
happen
due
to
budget
constriction,
but
in
the
engineering
piece
we
work
on
as
best
we
can,
but
ultimately,
culture
shift,
behavior
change
and
education
is
going
to
have
an
effect
not
on
everybody,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
at
least
an
aubry
butte.
We
had
a
tremendous
request
for
signs
and,
as
I
followed
up
with
all
the
addresses
that
I
delivered
signs
to,
I
saw
the
signs
up
same
day
or
next
day,
almost
in
every
case.
A
So
it's
going
to
vary
across
the
city,
but
and
it's
not
going
to
stop
everybody,
but
I
think
it
is
effective
and
you
know
I
would
encourage
people
to
not
be
dissuaded
from
putting
them
up
in
the
proper
place,
observing
the
city's
guidelines
for
signs
which
I
distributed
with
every
sign
that
I
handed
out.
So
you
know
that
michaela.
A
A
A
We
also
tried
to
not
meet
on
council
weeks
first
and
third
weeks
of
the
month,
so
we
dodged
those
weeks
which
took
us
second
fourth
weeks
of
the
month
and
for
two
years
we
have
been
at
second
tuesday,
four
to
six,
and
I
guess
my
first
question
is:
does
anyone
have
a
conflict
with
this
meeting
date
and
time?
Elizabeth,
jamie?
Okay?
So
we
have
two.
A
D
D
C
A
C
A
Yeah
at
least
I
hear
what
you're
saying
in
in
until
and
unless
well
until
we
have
in-person
meetings.
That
might
be
a
good
alternative.
That
being
said,
you
know,
I
wonder
if
we
do
need
to
consider
230
the
I
I
will
say
the
downside
of
that
is:
we've
had
comments
from
public.
Why
are
you
meeting
when
you
do
because
it's
so
hard
to
get
to
you,
so
I
want
to
reflect
that.
A
You
know
we
encourage
public
input
and
we
certainly
don't
want
to
give
the
appearance
that
we're
trying
to
do
anything,
but
that
so,
I
think,
there's
a
couple
of
alternatives.
One
is
to
consider
the
three
to
five
on
second
tuesday.
The
other
would
be
to
let
michaela
put
out
a
doodle
poll.
I
know
that
many
of
us
have
gotten
used
to
this
time
frame
and
schedule
our
lives
around
it,
but
a
doodle
poll
is
an
alternative.
So
how
does
that
sound
to
everybody
as
far
as
a
doodle
pole
any
opposed
to
that?
A
B
A
F
F
F
F
So
I'll
reach
out
to
you
guys
about
that.
We've
also
heard
from
the
last
few
neighborhood
leadership
alliance
meetings
that
you're
interested
in
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
trainings
a
couple
of
options
for
that,
I'm
looking
into
one
would
be
to
see
what
has
been
done
previously
and
what
is
maybe
recorded
so
that
you
could
watch
that
online
and
the
other
is
having
someone
come
to
one
of
these
meetings
and
give
a
dei
presentation
at
a
regular
meeting
so
I'll
be
reaching
out
about
those.
F
A
I'm
going
to
start
with
a
little
bit
of
the
history
within
the
nla
of
the
fireworks
issue.
Some
discussion
about
council
interaction
and
after
that,
I'm
going
to
by
roll
call
and
I'll
start
with
myself,
because
I'll
rebuke
alphabetically
as
the
first
one
on
the
roll
call
list.
I
will
ask
each
of
you
if
you
have
something
to
share
to
please
share
with
the
group
and
let's
try
to
keep
it
brief,
because
we
want
to
be
sure
that
we
have
time
for
nla
reports
at
the
end
of
the
session.
A
The
nla
has
discussed
fireworks
since
day
one
and
the
nla
has
not
felt
to
date
that
this
is
a
city-wide
issue
but
has
been
supportive
and
by
being
supportive.
I
think
may
be
partially
responsible
for
council
being
very
responsive
council
has
given
the
ben
pd
the
opportunity
to
use
citations
as
a
tool
with
illegal
fireworks
and,
in
addition,
council
added
to
the
biennium
goals,
increased
enforcement
of
illegal
fireworks.
So
that
is
part
of
biennium
goals.
A
Also,
I
would
point
out
that
the
the
two
n
a's
most
affected
by
this
have
been
having
a
lot
of
progress
working
independently
as
neighborhood
associations.
It's
been
positive
and
the
latest
issue
is
really
enforcement
focused
and
the.
Lastly,
I
need
to
remind
us
all
because
we
saw
the
roadmap.
We
saw
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done.
A
A
A
E
So
I'm
on
me,
basically
boyd
acres
is
one
of
the
top
three.
I
know
you
said
that
there's
only
a
few
neighborhoods.
I
think
that
from
the
data
that
we
got
at
our
last
meeting,
there's
more
than
two
neighborhoods,
the
boy
acres
board
is
in
the
process
of
approving
a
letter
very
similar
to
what
I
sent
in.
We
just
ran
out
of
time.
Our
annual
meeting
is
today
and
I
have
to
leave
as
soon
as
I
can
go,
attend
that
annual
meeting.
E
I
think
it's
a
big
risk
in
band.
I
think
that
fireworks
could
set
up
a
fire
that
would
burn
up
the
whole
city.
I've
seen
it
happen.
I
used
to
work
in
ready
and
that's
what
happened.
I
mean
the
reading
fire,
the
car
fire
down.
There
was
not
set
off
by
fireworks,
but
it
wiped
out
the
city.
I
would
hate
to
see
that
happening
again.
E
We
have
a
history
of
wildfire
running
through
the
city,
so
I
would
be
willing
to
serve
on
a
fireworks
committee
appointed
form
and
I
think
that
boyd
acres
feel
strongly
about
it,
because
we
had
a
lot
of
natural
vegetation
cured
out
grasses
by
july
stuff.
That
is
extremely
flammable,
and
I
think
we
have
the
personality
type
in
our
neighborhood.
That
really
enjoys
big
fireworks,
displays
in
their
front
yard
and
the
streets
etc.
E
H
H
But
we
are
one
of
the
fortunate
neighborhoods
where
we
didn't
have
a
lot
of
complaints
and
when
I've
spoken
with
my
board,
we
we
wish
to
continue
to
focus
our
efforts
on
fire,
free
and
firewise
and
those
types
of
education
efforts
that
mean
we
don't
want
to
continue
to
support
the
informal
working
group
with
the
social
media
posts,
with
education
efforts
on
nextdoor,
with
additional
information
that
we've
put
out
through
our
newsletter.
But
this
time
I
would
not
be
in
favor
of
taking
this
up
as
an
nla
working
group
topic.
A
B
You're,
muted,
steve
yeah,
just
unmuted.
Thank
you.
You
know.
We
obviously
are
the
group
with
the
most
complaints
and
and
in
a
position
right
below
pilot
butte
here,
where
we're
quite
concerned-
and
I
think,
speaking
for
the
community-
we're
we're
very
much
on
board
with
taking
this
up
as
a
major
area
of
interest.
B
I
A
K
I
You
know
we
put
up
a
lot
of
any
fireworks
signs
and
I
think,
as
a
as
a
neighborhood,
we
saw
less
activity
on
the
fourth
than
we've
seen
in
the
past.
Obviously
the
big
bang
come
from
around
us,
so
we
can
hear
them,
but
I
personally
didn't
see
any
or
here
we
build
fireworks
locally
like
right
in
our
neighborhood,
and
I
think
I
speak
for
the
whole
board
in
saying
that
the
fireworks
signs
were
relatively
effective.
I
I
would
also
suggest
that
we
also
supported
the
letter
that
was
sent
by
lockspur
and
and
it's
a
letter
of
support
and
we
all
agreed
to
it.
However,
I
think
the
the
mark
is
probably
another
place
that
the
neighborhoods
could
could
go
and
discuss
the
matter
and
although
they
don't
have
any
legal
standing
could
could
approach
the
council
with
the
suggestion
about
bringing
them
to
us.
A
M
M
We
also
think
it's
a
fire
safety
issue,
not
just
an
enforcement
issue,
and
for
that
reason
we
thought
it
was
a
city-wide
issue
and
was
worth
being
part
of
perhaps
the
neighborhood
safety
committee
rather
than
starting
another
another
working
group.
But
we
have
a
neighborhood
safety
and
it
seems
like
fire,
safety
and
fireworks
would
fit
under
that.
So
we
were
supportive
of
their
request.
C
A
Okay,
thank
you
and
there's
been
a.
I
have
to
say,
there's
been
a
couple
of
very
interesting
thoughts
there
that
I
hadn't
put
on
my
radar.
So
thank
you
all
so
the
agenda
item
and
I
I've
been
taking
notes-
and
I
I
have
my
own
straw
poll
here,
but
I
guess
the
question
now
is
notwithstanding
that
we've
all
weighed
in
is
there
a
motion
to
create
a
formal
nla
working
group
to
address
the
fireworks
issue.
A
Without
emotion
to
that
effect,
and
what
I
would
say
is
I
I
think
we
can
continue
to
consider
some
of
these
other
ideas.
I
especially
like
the
idea
of
maybe
some
of
our
efforts
aimed
at
maybe
not
street
safety
per
se,
but
safety
focus.
I
think
that
makes
sense,
and
I
I
like
the
idea-
and
I
think
we
could
pursue
it
later,
of
having
a
position
from
the
nla.
I
recommend
that
we
allow
the
city
to
first
respond
to
the
letter.
A
A
A
So
the
focus
here
on
aubry
butte
is
really
aiming
in
the
direction
of
speed,
primarily
speed
on
mount
washington
and
some
side
streets
as
well.
I
have
a
board
meeting
tomorrow.
We
will
further
discuss
the
fireworks
issue
more
from
an
awareness
point
of
view.
I
think-
and
also
we
certainly
share
the
same
view
as
century
west-
that
many
of
these
topics
speak.
A
A
H
Cwna
did
not
meet
in
july,
but
we
have
been
conversing
about
fireworks
and
various
other
topics
just
online
and
we
are
planning
to
meet
in
august
at
that
time.
We're
hopeful
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
our
annual
meeting,
whatever
form
that's
going
to
take
and
we'll
also
be
talking
about
some
other
communication
efforts,
and
we
are
also
looking
for
board
member
10th
century.
B
B
K
We
have
issues
with
crowds
at
events,
employees
from
within
the
downtown
area
parking
in
our
neighborhoods
it
difficult
to
invite
people
over
during
the
day
and
overnight,
camping
and
it's
been
very
favorable.
We
have
enjoyed
working
with
toby
and
have
very
active
subcommittee
on
parking,
and
I
do
view
the
present
position
as
resident
friendly
and
somewhat
unfriendly
to
other
people
that
are
probably
just
honestly
trying
to
find
a
place
to
park
or
maybe
to
sleep
for
the
night.
K
So
we're
very
happy
with
the
way
that's
going
there
are.
Issues
of
you
know
with
the
density
increases
that
if
we
could
get
the
parking
more
favorable
to
what
at
least
the
board
would
like
it
might
diminish
the
push
towards
density
and
so
side.
Issues
like
that,
I
I
think
are
not
going
to
come
in,
but
it
will
come
to
surveying
our
community
and
having
a
vote,
and
my
understanding
is.
The
vote
will
want
to
have

participation
and
a
majority
of
the
participants
for
it.
G
You
chris
hans
on
that
on
that
parking
district
that
chris
was
talking
about.
I
would
just
it
definitely
affects
like
the
the
old
bend
neighborhood
association,
but
it
also
equally
as
important
in
my
mind.
Is
it
actually
extends
all
the
way
over
to
the
south
side
of
the
of
the
galveston
bridge,
where
we
just.
K
H
G
I
H
I
Okay,
as
far
as
old
bend
is
concerned,
I
have
been
inundated
and
overwhelmed
by
getting
up
to
speed
on
the
on
the
the
land
use
code
rewrite
and
I
haven't,
but
done
much
of
anything
with
the
with
old
farm.
However,
they
had
a
board
meeting
last
night
while
lisa-
and
I
were
on
the
planning
commission
I
sent
out
word-
ask
if
anything
reportable
was
was
covered
in
the
board
meeting
and
I
didn't
get
a
a
positive
response.
So
I
guess
everything
that
needs
to
be
taken.
L
L
We
put
a
lot
out,
there's
a
lot
of
interest
and
then
some
of
them
I
told
michaela,
have
been
stolen.
Maybe
somebody
wants
to
use
them
in
their
neighborhood.
I
don't
know,
and
I
would
say
that
our
I
would
like
to
take
feedback
from
people
on
annual
meeting
ideas,
because
we're
trying
to
figure
out
how
that's
going
to
work
and
we're
not
quite
sure-
and
I
think
we
talked
about
that
briefly.
L
M
I
second
the
information
on
annual
meetings
because
we're
struggling
with
are
we
going
to
do
it
virtually
or
in
person,
and
we
have
to
change
our
bylaws
so
that
we
can
do
it
virtually,
and
so
it
was
really
helpful.
I
think
it
was
boyd
acres
that
has
proposed
bylaw
changes
out
there
that
if
we
could
share
that
information
between
us,
so
we
aren't
all
reinventing
the
will
on
the
annual
meeting.
That
would
be
really
helpful.
M
Our
slowdown
signs
were
really
popular
in
southern
crossing.
I
just
emailed
lisa.
We
would
like
to
buy
some
of
your
signs,
so
yeah
we
ran
out
within.
I
don't
know
a
week
of
getting
them
so
they're
all
over
southern
crossing
and
people
seem
very
positive
about
them.
I'm
actually
gonna
do
a
survey,
finance
survey
of
the
people
that
got
them
and
I
have
not
done
a
survey
in
many
years
so
but
I'd
be
happy
to
share
that
with
you
once
I
do
that
it's
it
will
be
anecdotal.
M
F
A
G
Yeah,
I
really
encourage
people
on
michaela's
comments.
If
any
of
you
can
invite
him,
I
I
just
it's
he's
come
into
a
tough
job
at
a
tough
time
for
our
city
and
there's
a
lot
of
diverse
opinions
about
the
new
chief
and
he's
filling
big
shoes
and
that
kind
of
stuff
anything
we
can
do
to
make
him
feel
welcome
would
be
great.
H
To
add
to
an
idea
for
annual
meetings,
I
wanted
to
let
everyone
know
that
the
land
chairs
have
met
informally,
and
it's
been
a
couple
of
weeks.
I
think
three
weeks
ago
now
we
are
talking
about
the
potential
of
a
candidate
forum
and
we
are
in
a
very
preliminary
stages
of
talking
about
that,
but
debbie
dewis
of
southern
crossing,
and
I
have
have
started
that
conversation.
H
I
think
we're
going
to
spend
a
little
bit
more
time
this
week
fleshing
out
the
idea
and
we'll
keep
everybody
informed
as
to
what
the
plans
are
going
to
be.
But
it
looks
like
we
have
many
candidates,
I
I
think
no
fewer
than
three
candidates
for
each
of
the
four
open
positions
and
I
want
to
say
maybe
even
four
candidates
for
a
couple
positions,
so
lots
of
lots
of
interest
in
running
for
council.
This.
