Beaverton police: Officer John Macaulay gave an update of crime stats for our neighborhood.   His report pulled the district not just our NAC.  So far we are on track with last year.  One of the things he’s seen is that people go out and start their car to warm it up and then go back inside.  When they return to their car, it has been stolen.

 

Treasury report:  All checks have been deposited and we have a balance of $3,911.88. 

 

BCCI Update:  Award nominations will be next month for the Vergie Ries and project awards.  The city wide clean up is scheduled for June 7^th and plans are in the works to make it a success.  This is a great way for our NAC to earn money.  There is a 13 person task force set up to execute fast track regulations for land use in an effort to stimulate the economy in Oregon. BCCI to meet with Charlie Ringo on 3/25 to discuss this task force.

Oregon Community Protection Coalition – Charlotte Lehar who is also the mayor of Wilsonville spoke about HB2137, a replacement initiative for Measure 7.  Charlotte spoke of the impact Measure 7 would have had if it had been upheld in the courts.  She said the costs for government would be great if this new initiative passes.  She reported that Land Use Planning and Economic Development need to work together.  She also indicated that a “high quality of life and high quality schools” are important to big companies looking at our area.

 

Saturday Market Report – Evan Lloyd offered  and accepted an opportunity to run the cinnamon roll booth this year.  Saturday Market starts May 10th and runs to the end of October.  There are 13 different community groups involved.  Our NAC will receive $15 per weekend for managing the booth.  Evan is scheduling the participants while Marv will be choosing the vendor for the rolls.  Highland NAC will have the first and last weekend so that we can inspect all the gear and equipment.  We should generate around $1000 for our NAC.

Open Discussions – We had a discussion with regards to setting our NAC up as a non-profit.   Attorney fees could be $1600-$2800 for the set-up.  Bob Tenner recommended that we contact the city neighborhood office for help.  If set up as a non-profit, we would need to file tax returns.  Marv recommended that we keep everything simple.  Craig will do some further research with the city.
