2011 Annual Meeting Notes
Despite the rain and cold, the VOGHA annual meeting was held last evening. Here are the highlights of the meeting.
Sergeant Ethan Moffitt of the Gahanna Police Department reviewed recent crimes in or near our neighborhood including car break-ins. He then discussed ways to avoid crime: lock doors, don’t leave any valuables in car outside, close garage doors, keep track of serial/model numbers of your valuables.
Angel Mumma, Director of Finance for the City of Gahanna gave a brief yet informative presentation on Gahanna city finances current and future. She’s encouraged by recent economics including the jobs coming to Gahanna for Chase.
Donna Simmons, VOGHA Treasurer, gave the financial report. Of the 325 homes in our neighborhood, we have 133 households participating. After expenses of entrance cleanup and landscaping, we still have a solid bank account.
Don Jensen discussed developments regarding the distressed house at 1290 Granfield Court. Since it’s been abandoned, it has gone into disrepair and Granfield Court residents worked to get the City of Gahanna to declare it a hazard. It should be settled this summer.
The annual Membership Drive was reviewed and volunteers will assist in passing out the door-to- door flyers in June.
The ‘Welcome Committee’ was discussed and it was decided that challenges made it difficult to maintain so without a volunteer to continue the idea was tabled.
Don Jensen was ‘named’ Garage Sale coordinator by default. The dates for the Community Garage Sale have been set for June 10 and 11th.
Jim Cox volunteered to join the Board of VOGHA to assist with updating the website as well as signage for the garage sale. He joins Don Jensen, Donna Simmons and Marque Bressler on the board for 2011-12.
