Speaking of MLPA and serving the neighborhood...
The present plan for the next MLPA Board meeting (Monday Sept. 12th, 7:30 pm, Morningside Presbyterian Church) is to set aside a period of time to discuss possible revision of MLPA and MSP dues and membership structure for 2006. Proposals circulated include raising dues across the board, eliminating Senior discounts, eliminating MLPA dues completely and making all neighborhood residents members of MLPA (while increasing benefits for MSP members), and keeping things the same.

If you have opinions or would simply like to hear the discussion, please attend the meeting.  If you can't attend and would like to share your opinions ahead of time, please feel free TO TAKE THE SURVEY NOTED ABOVE and to communicate other thoughts directly to this email address.

Clearing out The Wildwood
Now that the dog days of summer are almost past us, with cooler temperatures ahead, come join your neighbors in helping to clear out The Wildwood and continue its transformation into an urban greenspace that will make our neighborhood proud!

The next volunteer day is September 17th from 9-noon.  Bring your work gloves and water.  Meet at 1941 Wellbourne Drive, NE. This clear-out takes place on the third Saturday of each month.

Media Advisory: Help Prevent Flooding

Media Advisory Help Prevent Flooding by keeping lawn debris off curbs August 26, 2005 ¾ Hurricane Katrina is expected to make landfall on the Florida panhandle today and continue on a path that would bring severe rain to Atlanta late Monday night (Aug. 29) and early Tuesday morning (Aug. 30), according to the National Weather Service.

Weather this weekend is expected to be more pleasant than in recent days, and residents may take the opportunity to work in their yards. The City of Atlanta would like to remind residents not to put lawn debris, even debris in bags, by the curb until after the storm has passed through the City. Lawn debris can be easily washed into catch basins and storm drains, blocking the lines and causing flooding.

The Department will have crews throughout the City cleaning storm drains and catch basins in preparation for Katrina.
