  4. Copying – How do we pay for copies? We will have a 4 page document.
  5. Anyone work at a printing or copying company that could help out?
  6. Cost if we make copies at a copying center - .03¢ - .09¢ per sheet
    ($64.44 - $193.32)
    Cost if copying center makes copies - .07¢ - .14¢ per sheet
    ($150.36 - $300.72)

Per resident Marie Reed she has copying done for her Real Estate business done at Copy Max for 4¢ per sheet with them doing the work. We can contact Amber and tell her that we are working with Marie to get our copies done. Shirl will handle this.

Rudy Regalado is going to put together a sponsor page to help defray the costs of the copying.

  1. Delivery -
  2. Could try to get volunteers within the neighborhoods to deliver
    to a couple of streets, we have 26 streets total.
  3. If we pay a company to deliver it would cost +/- $64.44
  4. Send via US Mail +/ - $212.28. This cost includes labels,
    envelopes and postage. This option would be very time consuming.
  5. What date do we want to get these out to residents?

It was decided by most attending the meeting that we could do the delivery by using resident volunteers since we do not have the money to pay for the delivery.

Volunteered at Meeting: Vicki DiBenedetto, Gracie Prasanson, Danny Bowen, James Ferguson, Becky Berryknoll, Cheryl Callicott, Willie Watts.

  1. Electing Board of DirectorsSally
  2. Will be taking nominations for the Board of Directors at the September 30 meeting and hold the election at the October 28th meeting. Per our By-Laws “Nominations may also be made from the floor on the day of voting.” We are going to attach a flyer advertising this election with the By-Laws that will be delivered to each house. We will need some volunteers to count ballots.
  3. Collecting Dues Shirl
  4. We will need to collect the $30.00/year dues before the October Board of Directors meeting since our By-Laws state that you must be a paid member of BNA in order to vote. These will need to be paid in cash since we do not have a bank account yet.

CITY COUNCIL 5/31/03 RUNOFF ELECTION RESULTS BY NEIGHBORHOOD
The number of residents per neighborhood that participated in the last council election are below, per city secretary. Let's challenge one another to get out the vote the next time around. Let's see which neighborhoods can get out the most votes. To spur this to happen, PfCONA is beginning a new initiative called Project Vote! It will be quite an effort to get 10,000 registered voters to vote. With less than 500 voting currently it is an uphill climb but you have to start somewhere. If each neighborhood doubles or triples the amount of people that voted we might get up to 1,500 people the next time around.
