Posted Jan 15, 2010 9:28am by Chip Rosenthal in Meeting Notes | Comments Off

On January 5, the North Shoal Creel Neighborhood Association held its annual meeting. The main order of business at our annual meetings is the election of officers and directors for the coming year.

Here are the results of our election.

2010 Officers

  • Chip Rosenthal – President
  • Ken Moyer – Vice President
  • Kate Brien – Secretary
  • Lois McEvoy – Treasurer

2010 Directors

  • Andreas Guenin
  • Cheri Hartman
  • Alyssa Hedge
  • Don Jones
  • Vicki McFadden
  • Mary Jane Wier
  • Sherran Williams

Congratulations to everybody elected, and thanks to all the members who participated in the election.

Thanks to our Nominating Committee: Chair Juliette Kernion, Kate Brien, Helene Maham, Lynda Oakes, Sandy Perkins. They successfully recruited a full slate of candidates, ensuring that every position was filled.

Thanks to our Election Committee: Chair Randy Alexis, Helene Maham, and Lynda Oakes. They ensured an orderly process. Plus, Election Chair Alexis kept us entertained while votes were counted.

Many of our senior board members from 2009 were “term limited” out of office this year, which presents a bit of a challenge for this new board. Fortunately, many of them remain actively involved in the association, which we appreciate. But that means individual member involvement is now more important than ever. We’ll begin organizing committees later this month, and I hope you’ll think about participating.

- Chip Rosenthal, NSCNA President 2010

Election Results

The January 11th meeting was held this past Sunday with an excellent turnout. The Bylaws committee recommended one amendment to the Bylaws that fixes an election issue involving runoffs that was adopted by the membership. The Nominating committee presented the results of their hard work, a slate of 11 members who are interested in running for Officer and Board positions. The Election committee then took over the meeting and proceeded with the annual elections. It was a quick election, with no new nominations from the floor for any position. Each of the 11 nominated members won their Officer and Board positions by acclimation. Here are the Officer and Board members for 2009.

President: Jeff Russell
Vice-President: Ken Moyer
Secretary: Claudell Migl

May General Meeting Summary

Posted May 7, 2008 4:22pm by Chris Jones in Events, Meeting Notes | Comments Off

The focus of the May 6th, 2008 general meeting was information from city staff about the new floodplain maps and the Steck re-striping study.

The first speaker was Gary Kosut, from the City of Austin Watershed Protection and Development Review Department. Mr. Kosut brought several large maps. The first one showed the approximate boundaries of the Memorial Day flood of 1981, during which water flowed over the Steck bridge. He displayed the “old” floodplain map based on a 1993 study. The limits of the floodplain were based on downstream improvements to Shoal Creek prior to the study. The new floodplain map becomes official September 26, 2008. This new map is based on a $4 million dollar study, and shows significant lowering of the predicted flood waters along properties on Millway. The changes are due to upstream improvements in terms of retaining ponds. Mr. Kosut observed than with the new maps, some homeowners might not be required to carry flood insurance (based on their mortgage requirements). However, it is always a good idea to have flood insurance if you are near waterways.
