Dave called the meeting to
order. Minutes from November 12 were
read, amended and approved. Dave
reported there is $4220.71 is in the checking account.
Harold reported that we have
paid the cost of the pine needles.
There are only 78 bails left. No
exact accounting was yet available.
Harold proposed that we NEVER sell them again since this required too much work
for a small profit.
Bob reported on the Reality
Store. This is a simulation exercise
for sophomores at SEHS to acquaint them with the cost of living in the real
world. The event will be staffed by
local volunteers. There will 300
students involved. A motion passed
to support the event with $200.
The event will held be on Dec 22.
Volunteers are still needed.
Nan reported we have a list
containing 15,000 email addresses that could be used to send out emails to the
entire community. Email service
providers are too expensive to manage this many.
Lonnie suggested that Network Solutions, our web hosting provider may
offer a service to manage. Lonnie
agreed to research what capability is available through our vendor and possibly
through Google. Nan agreed to talk
to Marty Heim.
Lonnie, Joe, Nan and Jeanie agreed to work on a team beginning in January
to determine a solution to manage the email list.
Dan, Joe and Terry and
Denise reported on the FOSAP Citizens Committee.
There was a long discussion about a Dollar General that may be located in
the Forest Oaks Commons shopping Center.
Terry suggested that we engage DG and the developer.
Terry wanted to address the signage issue.
Oak Ridge is a good example to follow and they have limits on signage.
Several expressed concerns about DG coming to our community.
We agree to contact Mark Swartz (Forest
Oaks Commons) and Cooper James (Dollar General developer).
Dave reported that Dennis
Pennix owns land beside Subway. This
is not large enough for a Dollar General.
Nan passed out new bylaws
for study and approval at the January 14,
2010 meeting.
Dave reported that Rosemarie
may need to borrow a trailer to move her bobcat for work on the walking trails
at Alamance Ballpark. Six loads of
mulch have been dumped on the property on walking trails/bike paths.
The volunteer for bobcat has not been available.
Dick will be asking for volunteers
to operate chainsaws, shovels and rakes.
We now have another bobcat operator available.
Dave reported that
Going Postal is offering post office
boxes at their store for $35-$55/year.
Motion was carried to move the current post office box location to the
Going Postal store on
Jeanie McNamara reported
about “suitable properties” for the new SE Elementary School.
The contract of Leo Bobadilla, chief operations officer was recently
renewed with 2 dissenting votes.
Linda met with Darlene Garrett, Building Relation Advisory Committee for
Guilford County Schools. She also
met with Alan Duncan and others at the BAT meeting.
They are considering bringing architect back to discuss the design of new
schools. There is still some worry that GC will not move forward before the
funding expires. It is not clear
where the new school will be located.
Linda wants to locate the school south of I-85 so that there can be
shifting of students from Pleasant Garden to Nathaniel Greene and Nathaniel
Greene/Alamance to the newly constructed SE Elementary School.
The Board Meeting for SEGCA
and SEGF will be on Monday January 18th at 7 PM at Alamance
Presbyterian Church.
Meeting adjourned at 9:00 PM
