Minutes for Clarksville CDC Monthly Meeting, April 19, 2022

 

The meeting began upon adjournment of the Annual Meeting.

 

Board members in attendance: BJ Friedman, Malcolm Greenstein, Paula Hern, Kim O’Brien, Mary Reed, Chris Thomas, Gregory Tran

 

Others in attendance: Brad Prak, Prak Property Management, Kathy Doyle, Randi Shade, Jon Montgomery, Jon’s partner.

 

1. On a motion by Paula, seconded by Chris the minutes from the March 15, 2022 monthly board meeting were approved.

2. BJ reported that as of March 31, there was $98,392 in our money market account, $49,298 in our checking account. We ended the month $16,073 in the black due to an AHFC loan reimbursement payment for 1611 W. 10th Street costs. She also reported that our annual audit is in progress.

3. Monthly property reports:

a. Brad had nothing to report regarding CCDC properties managed by Prak Property Management.

b. New construction at 1611 W. 10th Street: Kim reported that framing and roof decking is complete, windows are ready to be installed and paint colors selected—Little Sun Dress siding, Poetic Light trim, and a Fashion Gray front door. It has been discovered that there is no longer a water hookup to the property, unknown to us when we negotiated the land lease with the City. American Youthworks is working with the City to get this issue resolved at no cost to the CCDC. Cost overruns—due to COVID-related delays in construction and increased supply costs—will exceed the budget, possibly by as much as 15-25%. Kim is working with AYW to find additional funding sources.

c. Mary reported that the grant-funded repairs to the Haskell House are complete. Our final payment will be received upon completion of our final report, which Mary is working on. Additionally, we are awaiting payment of our final reimbursement from the Parks Department.

d. There was nothing to report regarding the renovation project funded by OWANA funds.

4. Paula reported that the new lines on the basketball and pickleball courts are complete and look great. This work expended all of the money in our Parks Foundation account. We can keep the account open for future fundraising efforts but at a $50 annual cost. The board decided to close it for now, agreeing we can open it again should we want to.

5. Mary reported that plans are being made for the Haskell House re-opening celebration, June 26, 2022, 1-3 p.m. There will be live music, light refreshments, a petting zoo, and hula hoops.

6. Under Other Business:

Mary reported that we are working with Frost Insurance to shop for new insurance coverage.

Paula reported that she and Judy Shipway, one of the Haskell House community gardeners, are working on landscape improvements at the Neighborhood Center.

7. The board did not meet in Executive Session.

 

Action taken via Electronic Vote:

On April 5, 2022, the board approved a neighborhood initiative to request residential permit parking for the 1600 block of W. 12th Street. (Note: The board’s approval is only one step in the process. Affected residents will have the final say in approval.)
