Our featured presentation was given by Ms. Patricia Sweet, a property manager with Mead/McClellan.
The company, together with Landmark Bank, has assumed the development of seven properties in Rosedale formerly owned by Michael Bearden/Rosedale Living.
According to Ms. Sweet, work on two properties has been completed. One, at 6111 Pershing, is completely leased.
All the properties will be closely managed. Leases will be for one year, with strict limits on the number of occupants allowed per unit. Applicants are being screened carefully. Security for occupants is being given special attention. Those who wished were treated to a guided tour of the units at 520 Rosedale.
The current problem with automobilerelated crime was discussed by John “Hitch” Powell, a member of the Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council’s Safety Committee.
As may be no surprise, Rosedale is bearing the brunt of this crime in the SDCC area. Of 60 incidents occurring over the past three months, all but four occurred within Rosedale. Residents were urged to take every precaution, and to call police at the first sign of suspicious activity. Hitch also noted that the warm weather and summer vacations will usher in the season for residential burglary. Tom Kleevorn was the happy winner of our doorprize: two tickets to an upcoming Cardinals-Mets baseball game.
