A 4-way stop sign is planned at the corner of Asbury and Artillery, V Dot planned to have the signs up in January, but due to the weather mid February is hopeful. Update on the surface pavement for all roads, when the roads where first planed the contract was made for some roads to be just tire and chipped. This plan will stay, unless V Dot’s funds are available, repairs patches will continue as repairs. Signatures from both section will be collected and submitted to Vdot for consideration of full black top on all roads. Larry Ulsh will head this project.



5. Neighborhood Watch: Tim Miller is the head of this project. The program is broken up into 14 section, with a block captain for each section. We have a need for two captains on Artillery Rd. A spring roll out meeting is being planned. Section I and Section II will have a kick off party to start this project, date will be announce later. A member of the police department will be present to advise homeowners on ideas for home protection along with children and women safety. Signs for the neighborhood watch have been chosen and will be posted at the intersections. Stickers have been order for anyone who would like to have them at their homes, just contact Tim Miller at 667-7659. A list of the block captains will go out in the next newsletter.



6. Street Lights: A vote was taken to put up streetlights in section II and approved. A committee for this project was formed, Denny Hardware will be in charge, other members that will help are, Robin White, Tom Bailey, Larry Ulsh, and Bob Lengel. The lights will be issued after contacting the power company, and with the approval of the homeowners concerned where the sights are chosen. If you are contacted by the committee as a sight please let them know if you have any objection to the lights being put up near your property…



7. Merger with section I: A concern with the play park was mentioned by a member dealing with the liability in this area. The homeowners would have to cover the extra cost if a claim would be made. Making this a risk on section II if a merger would go thru. Charlie Pinkham informed us on the amount of coverage the area has, and amount spent on upkeep. At this time a suggestion was made to look into donating the area to the county parks, Mr. Pinkham said he would take this idea back to the board in Section I **Liz Grannis suggested that a working cooperation can be set up between the two sections. By inviting board members of each section to the other meetings. The two areas could work together on improvement projects without having the cost of the merger. An invitation for a member of section I board to come to the March 5^th BOD meeting was extended to Mr. Pinkham. Zoltan Palffy thanked Charlie Pinkham for coming to this meeting and all of his help. A vote was taken and the merger has been shelved at this time, in order to give both Boards time to work together on joint projects.
   


8. New Issues and Concerns: Zoltan Palffy gave an update on the traffic safety on RT.7 and Greenwood road. He wrote a letter to Frank Wolfe our representative with concerns about the intersection. There is a need for reduce speed and school flashing lights. Zoltan urged all members to take time to write or e-mail Mr. Wolfe with this matter. Mr. Wolfe responsed to Zoltan’s letter that he would take the matter up with V DOT and thanked him for bringing this up.
