** Progressive Dinner planning is Thursday at Gail Middendorf’s house, 410 Woodland Ave. Bring COPIES of recipes! Last year 150+ neighbors took part and it was a great deal of fun.
Wed Jan 11 @ 7:30 pm @ Gryphon, AGENDA:
1. Friends of Cowan Park, Brad Palmer. Neighbors have organized to bring about improvements to the park.
2. Township police traffic committee — pedestrian safety. Committee sought to address concerns we brought up in the fall, we attended December meeting. Township will re-paint the crosswalk at Walnut & North Wayne. Won’t move it to Oak though, would not comply with PennDOT regs. Township will ask PennDOT if can have a crosswalk again on North Wayne & Poplar. Saying can’t do anything about Eagle and Woodland. Jim Higgins would like to discuss next steps. Issue should be escalated beyond just police traffic (i.e. cars) personnel to a program to improve North Wayne walkability & pedestrian safety.
3. Cabrini — proposed parking lot on Eagle Road. Neighbor who has been attending Cabrini meetings is providing information.
4. PECO contacted re too frequent power outages, response is engineering is running thorough review this month and will let us know. They trimmed trees Nov 2010, may come out again.
5. NWPA Directory. If you know anyone not getting these emails, that means they are not paid for 2012 and won’t be in the directory or get one. (They can still pay today and get one!) New directories will be printed this month.
6. Another great holiday season, thanks to all who helped with lighting the neighborhood tree, luminarias and the carol sing. Please send pictures/videos if you have them.
