General Meeting

 

Agenda items included a summary of potential refuse service changes, a presentation by Eric Stewart on neighborhood real estate, deferral of endorsing a traffic initiative, inspection of initial development plans for the West of Lake parcel at Tower Oaks, general news, old and new business.   Note, that while an election of officers was called, due to a lack of nominations, voting was cancelled a this time.  This leaves present officers carrying over their service from prior election.  A proposal for by-law changes to address this is expected in our next gathering.
