November Meeting Well Attended with Many Guests & Much Information Shared
November 12th was the first quarterly meeting to be held at the Washington Park Senior Center. The additional space offered room for more neighbors to attend and attendance of about 40+ was good for our first meeting. The Steering Committee noted a few changes for the room set up to make it more comfortable for future meetings.
We had a number of important guests at the meeting including Alderman Michael Murphy, Chairman of the MPS School Board, Peter Blewett and Chairman of the County Board and our Supervisor, Lee Hollaway. Budget issues and reasoning behind certain decisions were discussed by all three guests. A complete review of the meeting can be read in the Minutes which are found on our website, www.martindrive.org.
Another highlight of the meeting included an opportunity for everyone to pick up the 110 Halloween photos that had been printed and framed and donated by a generous neighbor who wants to remain anonomous.
Maggie Blaha, the Martin Drive Agenda Setter always ends the meeting with the question, “What is the best part of living in the MDN?” Responses included, quality neighbors, near great park. One neighbor said he liked that it was a neighborhood where people really came together and watched out for the neighborhood.
