2. Clarify that only one person per household is eligible for board membership at a given time
Filed under: announcements, meetings |
I work late on Thursdays so have not
attended a meeting.
What about the fountain at Riverbend?
In front of Cooter Brown’s (assume that is
in Carrollton) any chance of getting that working?
Or getting the litter cleaned out of it??
Also the Pop-Eye’s next to Chevron Station near
Willow which has been closed since Katrina–
is ruinous, always littered–can property owner be
asked to care for site.
Finally, the power station–I guess that’s an Entergy
property–across from Carrollton Station Bar–is
a horrendous site for litter–within and without its
fencing. Residential and business property owners
are expected to keep their properties clean–not
Entergy?
I can myself as an individual address problems but
is it better if an organization does–or more individuals
together.
Thanks
Cathy
