CAPITOL HEIGHTS CIVIC ASSOCIATION REGULAR MEETING
February 12, 2008

The Capitol Heights Civic Association held its regular meeting on February 12, 2008 at the Capitol Heights United Methodist Church. The meeting was called to order at 7:14 p. m. by Jewell Pitts, Vice President.

Cindy Keeping provided an update on the “Wonder Makers” and their progress regarding forming an association to rehabilitate certain properties within Capitol Heights. It is expected that at the next meeting a proposal to update the bylaws to incorporate this work effort into the established CHCA will be presented.

Jewell Pitts reports Lynn and Brenda Bryant may not chair the Spring Garden Tour. Call them if you are interested in participating.

The following motion was presented, seconded, discussed and unanimously approved:
Capitol Heights Civic Association is agreeable to the construction of the plan named San Antonio as proposed for 27 North Lewis Street.

The following motion was presented, seconded, discussed and unanimously approved:
Capitol Heights Civic Association amends the previous motion and prefers to take the position that the San Antonio plan is a step in the right direction. However, we prefer the plan to rebuild include: wooden windows, appropriate historic mouldings, pitch of roof to be a better match to the more historic architecture styles of the neighborhood. Appropriate historical architecture changes such as bungalow orientation, porch across most of the front of the house.

An agreement was made to explain the “WonderMakers” plans and project in the newsletter that is to be mailed in the middle of next week. We will include language inviting everyone to our meeting.

A motion to adjourn was adopted. The meeting was adjourned at 8:55 p. m.

Cynthia McCollister, Secretary
