Meeting Minutes and follow up.

Meeting started @ 7pm. We had 9 people in attendance.

 

First we talked about the Mayor Action Center and some of their quick responses when it came to filling potholes on Maple Lane and Poplar Rd. The large tree in the greenway that fell last year was marked and all the limbs were taken off.  Now just the trunk is left, hopefully they come back for it......

 

There was alot of general discussion about streets, sidewalks and of course the curve in the Parkway.  We discussed some strategies on the curve since this needs immediate action. All of the concerns that pertained to the curve, streets and sidewalks were expressed on Friday the 23rd with Ruth Ann Walker. (More on this meeting with Ruth Ann Walker later)

 

Then we finialized on the Spring Clean up. Molly Wilson discussed that April 14th Keep Indianapolis Beautiful will be doing a clean up close to Pleasanton and they will take away the trash we pick up. So the date is set for Pleasanton's Spring Clean Up.

 

April 14th starting at 8am at Kin Hubbard Memorial Park. We will start there and work our way to the Greenway. we will have until 11am or so to get as much trash gathered. Since the city workers will have to get all the trash to the dump at Noon. The more hands the better. This will also be advertised in the Eastside Voice. I hope we have a good showing since we only have 3 hours to pick up the unsightly trash along the parkway.

 

Meeting over around 8:20pm

 

Follow up on meeting with Eastside Neighborhood Liasion Ruth Ann Walker.

 

We drove around Pleasanton for nearly two hours looking at sidewalks, streets issues, and the curve in the Parkway. She did an assessment of sidewalks and streets that need replaced. She submitted all sidewalk and street repairs to the MAC . She also submitted the curve, lane restructuring, to be looked into by the city. I asked her about signage, she stated that IPL WILL NOT place signs on street lamps we have. But she said that she will ask. If we have signs made and buy them, the city will install. Drainage issues were addressed and she stated to call Citizens 631-1436 to have them come out and take a look at it. Ask for a rep that is historically sensitive due to being on the National Register. The sidewalks and streets will probably not get done until two or three years from now, but the curve is will be "corrected" in the very near future. Steve Hardiman City-County Council DPW Rep is coming out today for a on-site walk of the curve. Mrs. Walker and Mr. Hardiman will follow up with me on what the city is going to do. I will let everyone know of the outcome.

 

Remember April 14th Spring Clean Up 8am at Kin Hubbard Memorial Park
