Projects decision.

I'm guessing that there will be some angry former public housing residents out tonight. Going to be a violent weekend. Be very careful when you are on the street.

Something NOW!

Last night we had a very well attended meeting at Fuel coffee house. BIA is working on registering us with Neighborhood Watch and organizing a formal web site, but some of the folks want to see some type of action immediately if not sooner.

So here is it. We should have some surveilance video screen caps of some of our neighbors and of some of the people that hang out on our corners real soon.

Guidelines:
-Do not libel or slander. A simple statement that "this person is not from the 'hood, and hangs out at Valence and Chestnut" is sufficient.
-Keep talking. Our communication last night is a great step. Hopefully this blog will facilitate more and better interaction between neighbors.
