New Business:    Cam Juarez presented steps to go about getting reinvestment funds.  Residents present discussed needs of lighting, sidewalks, speed bumps and a park.  Cam outlined the application process, which starts with putting a survey out to the entire neighborhood.  It was discussed this could be listed in our upcoming newsletter.  Cam suggested mixing up a few things in a proposal, some lighting, some speed bumps, or such combinations.

Old Business:  

 Night Out Against Crime:  Dave will send out letters to Circle K, Target and Walmart seeking funds for our Night Out in August. Dave stated he needs the current tax info before he can do this.

 Newsletter:  We'll need to add the survey to the newsletter which should be ready to get out soon so it mails to the neighborhood in June or early July. It was decided that the August meeting would be used for a neighborhood discussion of what items the neighborhood would like to include in a proposal for funds.
