The meeting opened with discussing the street light on Hillcrest Street. The Street has 4 lights. John Steele proposed that Scott Shuler (works with Haynes Electric but would do the work on the side) would replace the bulbs with newer, more energy efficient bulbs that run $150.00 a bulb. If we paid for the bulbs Scott would do the work for free. A budget of $600 was decided on for the lights on Hillcrest Street, a motion was presented and passed.
Eric Bradford announced “Neighborhood Cleanup” would be November 8th, 2014, with dumpsters placed at the top of Orchard Street and on Hillcrest Street. Emily Sutton Dezio handed out garbage bags to fill with leaves, the City Garbage will pick up the bags, empty them, and leave them to be re-used. It is a program sponsored by the City of Asheville that the weekly garbage run will pick up rather than residents waiting on the special service to pick up the leaves.
John Steele – Beautification Officer announced that beginning next month, the “Yard of the Month” program will be back on schedule when a yard is chosen a small bio of the residents and pictures of the winning yard will be posted on the Village Facebook page. The Village Christmas wreaths will be hung on the street lights the weekend after Thanksgiving.
The Meeting was then opened to the floor for any other topics. Emily Sutton Dezio suggested a contact pereson representing Enka Village (Tree Czar) be appointed to converse with Duke Energy about the tree trimming in the Village. Mike Sargent volunteered to contact Terri Smith, a possible contact about the trees with Duke Energy.
Julie Noblitt mentioned there will be a pumpkin carving at the Enka Park, Sunday October 26th at 4 pm.
Eric Bradford mentioned there was an event at the Enka Library, “A Look Back” at American Enka and Enka Village on Thursday.
The Meeting was concluded.
