This was reported near Kings Island. Don't assume a gold van is the Ellis family! Keep an eye on our kids, get a plate number and description.

Bus Stop Warning from The Ellis Family

Thursday morning I happened to be sitting with my 4th grader at the bus stop. As the bus pulled up to the stop the kids starting running to see who would be first in line. A young boy was running and lost his footing at the curb. He almost fell and would have landed in the street under the bus as it was moving. If this child was pushed, touched or lost his footing to the point of falling there would have been a terrible accident. PLEASE remind your kids to stay away from the curb until the bus comes to a complete stop. And DON'T RUN.....Thanks, Mike Ellis

Half Price Cincy

Hope this link works but this website gets you half price on local restaurants and services. Sometimes on Tuesday mornings at 9am they have 70-80% off! We used it for Brazenhead coupons. For $25 we got 2 $25 gift certificates! Cafe Bella is also on the list. We also like Cafe Mediterranean at Beechmont Mall. (Read the fine print on some) Like Brazenhead can't be used on St. Patty's Day, etc. We are pleased with this find. Here is the link. William isn't here so just copy and paste. I don't care to learn how to do this....lol.

hoa annual meeting notes

Attendance: Rick and Barb Ianniello, Braham Prakash, Richard Klaus, Jeff Krauz, Ronnell Spears, Donna Burns, Dan and Kim Buck and Rob Westbrook, Linda Durbin, Dan Baum, Karen Osler, Lisa Gazda and Lynn Rook. Proxies received from Joe Hilloughby, John Conyers, and Nasr Enany

New Business:

• Election: After introductions and reminding folks of our neighborhood blog, we voted to replace Koti Sreekrishna as he rotated off the board. Linda Durbin volunteered and was unanimously accepted. We also voted to have two of the other four board members rotate out next year and two the following year (effectively extending two people for a period of one year). This was to get us back to a regular rotation.
• We then reviewed the budget versus expenses for 2009. There we no issues.
• I announced our fees for 2010 will follow the 4% inflation that we forecasted resulting in $630.
• Karen Osler received gift cards from Natorp in the amount of $75. She will use these and organize a few others to do some small plantings whenever she deems best.
• We talked how general appearance seems to be improved and I encouraged folks to deal with their neighbors directly as 'issues' arise. In particular I reminded them that new mailboxes are very cheap.
• The majority of our time was spent discussing the trail on the outer perimeter on the north and west sides of our property. The situation is not acceptable in that maintenance is too expensive and even with that not at the same standard as the rest of our property. A committee of Braham Prakash, David Burns, and Dan Baum will work with the board to develop options and action steps. The current general direction is to look at replacing the path with grass and maintaining that just as we do the center common area. There are many details to be worked out to include a timeline. This team will take the lead on that.

Anyone Want Some Daylillies?

I dug these up from the front entrance the night before the city was going to kill them when they widened the road. (I did enjoy many of the neighbors slowing to see what I was doing! I realize it looked suspicious!)
I have kept them alive (hardy flowers!), and will be splitting them next spring. I feel they are the neighborhoods' flowers so if anyone wants some next end of April/ early May please email me at oslerfamily@gmail.com.
Also if anyone has a particular "color scheme" for the front annuals next spring also let me know. It will be an exciting spring in the neighborhood. Thanks for everyone who turned out last p.m. at the meeting!
