Ven-Mar Neighborhood Association

Special Meeting held on Tuesday, August 21, 2001

Aug 22, 2001


Our "special meeting" on Tuesday, August 21, was sparsely attended. Nevertheless we had a very satisfactory steering committee type session ranging over a number of subjects.
The following was agreed:
?· Districting for outreach should follow present election precinct lines
?· A map is to be added on our flyers to indicate the boundaries of our area.
?· The Organization and Outreach Committee, convened by Evelyn T Dravecky, is to produce a Mission Statement for approval by WANA at the next regular meeting, on 9-4-01. Evelyn will convene a small sub-committee to ready our bylaws for distribution prior to approval.
?· Outreach is to be done by each member, starting with friends and neighbors and using our Talking Points, as needed.
?· WANA's present name is thought o be somewhat misleading, as it ignores the expansion of our boundaries beyond the original Walgrove Area. It was agreed that our flyers should indicate that WANA's name will be changed when a more appropriate name is found.
?· Sheila Bernard is the convener for the Streets and Traffic Committee.
?· Rick Brown is the convener for the Community Development Committee.
?· Christie Boardman will furnish Sheila and Rick with the names and contact information of their committee members. She will be on vacation on 9-4-01.
?· Regular WANA meetings should be held on the first Tuesday of every month at Penmar Recreation Center. Unless they are convened in members' homes, special meetings or committee meetings should also be held at Penmar Recreation Center, perhaps in the Arts and Crafts Room, which holds 12 persons comfortably. Alex Utas is in contact with Ruth Galanter's Office about a more secure arrangement than the present, which assigns a low priority to applications for reservations by community associations.
?· The arrangements for inviting a speaker on "resurfacing streets and walkway maintenance" from LA Street Services for the 9-4-01 Regular meeting was approved.
?· Following on this presentation, the meeting will split up into issue groups, on the lines of the Committees mentioned above.
