I was able to meet with Mayor Baker this morning to discuss our neighborhood concerns and projects. I expressed our concerns for better communication from the police department. Our excitement for the completion of the new Roberts Center. Our plans for a outdoor yard sale - bazaar in the green space on 52nd Avenue N and 9th Street. As well as information on how to proceed with neighborhood grant qualification. I'm hoping through our volunteer efforts we can receive matching grant monies from the city to proceed with neighborhood signage.

Early Saturday morning, a few residents got together to clean up the green space on 52nd Ave between 12th & 9th Streets. Some interesting items we found: torn pages from The Swiss Family Robinson, 3 baby ballyhoos (perhaps left over bait?), and a pair of pants. Thanks to everyone who participated!
