The Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council board meeting for January/February was held on Monday, January 28, 1991. Present: Directors F. Driscole, M. Fleener, C. Forslund, G. Fox, G. Genung, R. Johnson, P. Kurtz, S. Polk, B.R. Roncal, L. Stein, A.J. Tanner, and N. Vatcha; Executive Director N. Farmer; ConServ Officer J. Waits; and Guests J. Borgmeyer, Fl. Driscole, J. Hollenbaugh and C. Homan.
The meeting was called to order at 7:35 by president Forslund.
The minutes of the December meeting were approved as mailed.
The year-end treasurer’s report was received as distributed. Questions relating to reporting periods, fiscal years of sponsoring organizations, and cash flow were answered by Farmer.
The outside auditor’s year end financial report was received for study and review.
President’s Comments Forslund briefly spelled out her personal goals and ideologies for SDCC, emphasizing a strong personal commitment to the Council and the Council’s commitment to improving the neighborhood.
She stated her hope that the Council will take a more pro-active role with programs in the coming year instead of reacting to needs and issues as they arise. One goal for the year is the initiation of a committee structure to involve more neighborhood residents’ participation. Board members should be visible in neighborhood activities and support interest in special events.
In the future, the board meeting agendas will list upcoming neighborhood events and board members will be encouraged to attend as representatives.
Committee/Association Reports Historic District Review Committee The committee reviewed applications and made the following recommendations to the Heritage & Urban Design Commission: 6178 Delmar—the committee recommended HUDC deny an application for window replacements and the “Wild Thang” wall sign, both of which were completed without a permit. 6211 Delmar—the committee recommended HUDC approve the plans for the Shell Station to remodel and convert to a convenience store, landscape and move the car wash from the west side of the building to the north side if Shell would agree to remove the 50′ pole sign at the west side of the property. 400 N. Skinker—The committee recommended HUDC deny the application to replace the pole sign at the Sinclair Station with another pole sign; the nearby Fina Station was permitted only a monument sign a year ago. Kingsbury Square R. Johnson reported that they are planning to install a wrought iron fence with pedestrian gates on the east side of Laurel between Kingsbury and Westminster.
This will be more attractive than the existing unlandscaped berm and they hope will increase security.
Nina Place Stein reported two new residents had moved in and that all sales remain strong.
Parkview George Genung is the new association president.
The lawsuit has finally been resolved as the Supreme Court upheld the Court of Appeals ruling in favor of the Agents.
All lot owners must pay the annual assessment which has been authorized by the Parkview residents. Rosedale R. Roncal reported that a board meeting will be held within three to four weeks and elections planned. St. Roch Fox presented a letter from the Parish Council asking about SDCC’s policy and activities with respect to requests for aid from individuals and groups. Forslund again emphasized the need for SDCC to establish active committees including a social service committee. Farmer will send a letter to St. Roch outlining current procedures and future plans.
Housing Corporation SDCHC continues to negotiate an agreement with the Technical Assistance Corporation (TAC) with regard to the transfer of several neighborhood properties from Mead McClellan to TAC. SDCC is also directly involved in this process because SDCC is the non-profit “passthrough” agency for a loan to this project under the city’s Housing Implementation Program (HIP). HIP loans are payable generally in 10 years or when the project is sold. McClellan intended to convert the units in this scattered site project to condominiums after operating them as rental for five years. McClellan negotiated a contract with the city that would allow him to convert the HIP loan to For Sale Incentives when he converted to condos; instead of repaying the city, he would make the money available to buyers to use for closing costs, interest writedowns, etc. SDCC will need to take some action with regard to this agreement as the “pass-through” agent. SDCHC is concerned about how this HIP loan and “rollover” agreement will affect the future of this project, the agreement between SDCHC and TAC, and, the possible transfer of 520 Rosedale, one of the buildings included in the plan, to SDCHC. SDCHC is represented by attorney Charles Valier who is reviewing all of these documents and contracts and negotiating the TAC/SDCHC agreement. SDCHC asks SDCC not to take any action until their attorney makes a recommendation.
On motion by Kurtz, Polk second, the following resolution was adopted: “The SDCC Board of Directors authorizes the Executive Committee to take action on behalf of the SDCC on the West Side Partnership HIP/FSIP Agreement, pending a recommendation from the Skinker DeBaliviere Community Housing Corporation Board of Directors and their legal counsel.” Director’s Report Preservation week is scheduled May 11-19; directors were asked to consider if SDCC would like to participate with any special events.
The SDCC incorporated on March 21, 1966.
A 25th Anniversary reception is planned Thursday, March 21, 6-9 p.m. at the SDCC offices. Charrette Reception/Presentation is tentatively scheduled at the SDCC office on Thursday, Feb. 28. John Reeve has agreed to prepare and present a 30 minute overview of some of the ideas presented in the design schemes that were submitted.
All of the entries will be on display at the office all month. Neighborhood Plan Farmer has had two meetings with ConServ and CDA Planning representatives.
She is working with them in drafting the neighborhood plan.
