Emergency Planning
Come to a CEPOA Emergency Prepardness/Response Planning Meeting
A meeting is being held on Saturday, August 18, 1 PM at the home of Annie Rohrbach-Walker and Gary Walker located at 2732 Houston Drive. There will be several topics:
For Discussion: equipment we have, equipment we need, skills to help in an emergency, skills with planning & coordination, house-to-house survey questions, Neighborhood Watch
For Participation: Block Captains & Crew, Survey & Welcoming Team, Communications Team, Master Planning Team
During the Annual Meeting we handed out Areas of Interest forms to help us get a sense of interest and the available emergency skills in our community. If you haven't already, please fill out a form now. Bring it with you to the meeting on August 18th. You may also email the completed form to either of the co-chairs:
You've probably noticed the Botanica Nova sign on the right as you turn onto Rodman from Pecho Valley Road. We've contracted with this firm to upgrade the landscaping at the entrance. You'll recall that at last year's annual meeting, the membership voted to expend up to $10,000 for this purpose. It's taken almost a year to gather input from members and to find a landscape contractor who was both willing to do what we needed and do it within our budget! Happily, things are now "in the works."
Website updated
We've updated the CEPOA website! We hope to keep it current and make it a useful tool for our members. Two additions are the News and Calendar sections. Check it out.
The next board meeting is August 8, 4 PM at the Dove residence. All CEPOA members are welcome to attend.
