Reminder Florence Drive closed for slurry sealing Monday 10/19 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. Tuesday 10/20/09
Florence Drive will be closed for slurry sealing from 8 a.m. Monday (10/19/09) until 2 p.m. Tuesday (10/20/09). Please don't drive on the street.
Please don't water or wash your cars on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday. Earthworks is trying to avoid standing water on the street. It's okay to walk down the side of the street. It is best to keep your pets inside so that they don't track the slurry into your home. Earthworks will be using blowers, so if you do leave your car on the street, please roll up your windows.
I'll call the post office Monday morning and find out what happens to the mail. I'll email and post to the blog what I find out about the U.S. postal mail. http://florencedrivestreetassociation.blogspot.com/

From Jim Jackson: clear up some misconceptions regarding quorums and voting
From: "JAJ48@aol.com"
Subject: Re: Fwd Email from Cameron Jackson 10/11/09 meeting
This is to clear up some misconceptions regarding quorums and voting.
A common definition is that "A quorum consists of all those present at any duly announced meeting". This would also include proxies. It does not require the attendance of all eligible voters just like a presidential or senatorial election does not.
What is required is notice to all which is what is commonly called "due process".
The notice may or may not include a ballot on which to vote yea or neigh on a meeting topic, which if filled in would constitute a proxy on that issue at the next meeting.
A majority of a quorum carries the motion.
I hope this helps clarify the issue.
Best,
JimJackson

From Cameron Jackson to Lisa and Bruce Smith
Please forward this to those on your list. Thanks in advance.
I do not have a complete list nor an easy way to forward.
Attendance at meetings: Those who attended this meeting were from: 8 homes: 215, 210, 211, 222, 224, 227, 202, 206. At the last meeting there were 14. About 1/2 from the first meeting were at the second.
This is a different version than yours as to what occurred at the meeting From Cameron Jackson
The important thing is that we all listened to each other. We talked and got along. I thought it was a good meeting. We did not do anything formal. We listened. (No formal Minutes were ratified or taken. No formal organization created.)
What I learned and responded to : there was no verbal " YEY GREAT Cameron, we want speed bumps this week!" from those that attended the meeting. (Roughly, there were about 1/2 who were at the last meeting were at this meeting.)
The homes who attended were not interested in bumps put in this Thursday, Oct. 15. Hence speed bumps are deferred . No bumps for now.
A letter will be sent out giving options fpr to vote. The "options" listed per Smith is not what I remember we said.
This is what was the options were as I wrote down: (written out and given to committe members)
in favor of bumps: one bump near Cliff and Florence ( ) or two bumps ( ) each end of the street
opposed to bumps one ( ) two ( )
abstain ( )
in favor of bumps but do not want to pay ( )
More on that later.
My view: Think about this:
What can we do as neighbors to be safe on our street and help our neighbors be safe on neighboring streets?
Again, how about getting together informally first week end of Nov. o Sunday for a Say Hello at our end (Cliff and Forence) of the street.
Let us know what you think, Cameron Jackson 688-6002 202 Florence Dr.
Take care, Cameron Jackson drCameronJackson@gmail.com 831 688-6002
