1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,394
Speaker 1: Okay, it's 7:00.

2
00:00:01,394 --> 00:00:02,394
Let's get started.

3
00:00:02,394 --> 00:00:05,854
Thanks for coming to the Harbor Lane Residents Association meeting.

4
00:00:05,854 --> 00:00:10,038
We have three things tonight: the parking permits, the playground repair, and the

5
00:00:10,038 --> 00:00:11,038
summer street party.

6
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 2: Before we start, can we confirm the minutes from last month?

7
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,000
I read them and they look right to me.

8
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:19,231
Speaker 1: Good point.

9
00:00:19,231 --> 00:00:20,294
Does anyone object?

10
00:00:20,294 --> 00:00:21,294
No?

11
00:00:21,294 --> 00:00:23,811
Then the minutes from September are approved.

12
00:00:23,811 --> 00:00:25,378
First item: parking permits.

13
00:00:25,378 --> 00:00:26,378
Raj, you looked into this?

14
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,130
Speaker 2: Yes.

15
00:00:27,130 --> 00:00:33,305
The council told me we can apply for a residents-only zone, but we need signatures

16
00:00:33,305 --> 00:00:37,146
from at least half of the households on the street.

17
00:00:37,146 --> 00:00:43,322
There are 62 households, so we need 31 signatures, and the deadline is the 15th of

18
00:00:43,322 --> 00:00:44,322
November.

19
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,222
Speaker 3: I'm happy to go door to door on the north side.

20
00:00:47,222 --> 00:00:49,000
I know most of the people there.

21
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,038
Speaker 2: Great, then I'll take the south side.

22
00:00:52,038 --> 00:00:54,000
I'll print the forms this week.

23
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:59,586
Speaker 1: So Karen takes the north side, Raj takes the south side and prints the

24
00:00:59,586 --> 00:01:00,586
forms.

25
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,500
Speaker 1: Let's aim to have all signatures by the 8th, so we have a week of margin.

26
00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:06,000
Second item, the playground.

27
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,952
Speaker 2: I got two quotes for fixing the swings and the fence.

28
00:01:10,952 --> 00:01:12,500
The first is $1,800.

29
00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:19,000
The second is $2,400, but the second includes new safety surfacing under the swings.

30
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,609
Speaker 3: I think the surfacing matters.

31
00:01:21,609 --> 00:01:24,155
Kids fall off those swings all the time.

32
00:01:24,155 --> 00:01:26,000
Can we afford the higher one?

33
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: We have about $3,100 in the fund.

34
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,000
So, yes, but it leaves very little for the street party.

35
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,358
Speaker 1: Let's vote.

36
00:01:35,358 --> 00:01:38,630
Everyone in favor of the $2,400 quote with surfacing?

37
00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:40,235
That's clearly a majority.

38
00:01:40,235 --> 00:01:44,000
Daniel, can you accept the quote and ask when they can start?

39
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: I'll call them tomorrow morning and report back by email.

40
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,181
Speaker 1: Last item: the street party.

41
00:01:50,181 --> 00:01:54,486
Given the budget, I suggest we keep it simple, a potluck instead of catering.

42
00:01:54,486 --> 00:01:56,779
We don't have to decide the date tonight.

43
00:01:56,779 --> 00:02:00,749
Let's come back to it in December when we know what's left in the fund.

44
00:02:00,749 --> 00:02:01,749
Anything else?

45
00:02:01,749 --> 00:02:02,749
No?

46
00:02:02,749 --> 00:02:04,147
Then thank you, everyone.

47
00:02:04,147 --> 00:02:05,334
We'll meet again on the 2nd of December.
