C.H.U.N. Board Meeting Minutes - November 21 £ December 12, 1974 President Michae Henry called the meeting to order at 7:30 pm pn November 21, 1974 at the Botanic Gardens. Patty Jackson reported $415.62 in the Treasury. Mary Snyder reported that the boundary report of the Education Committee had been well received by the school administration,. However, the Committee's concern that federal Title I funding for disadvantaged students should follow the students into the new schools where they are being bused has not yet met with any action from the administration. Cathy Donohue reported that the Transportation and Traffic Design Committee continues to monitor plans of the Regional Transportation District for buses, PRT lines and stations, etc., in our area. Bill Pace reported on various activities of the Neighborhood Organizing Committee; Michael Henry briefly spoke on the CHUN People's Fair Committee; and Rhonda Knop gave a short resume on the Home Financing Committee. Jim James and Michael Henry reported on the continuing struggle of the CHUN Land Use and Zoning Committee to amend the city zoning ordinances to prohibit parking lots in R-3 zones. Bill James, Cathy Donohue, Carolyn and Zwi Reznik and Paul Huffman volunteered to assist in persuading City Council. Several guests were introduced, including Dugan Middleton (neighborhood planner with the Denver Planning Office), Sally Brown (City Council candidate) , Judy Waterton and Susan Collins (students at University of Colorado School of Nursing who are studying CHUN for a course), Paul Huffman (of the Capitol Hill Community Design Center at 430 East 11th Avenue) and Linda Ross (organizer of a roommate-referral enterprise). Next item onthe agenda was election of new board members to replace Virginia Rockwell and Colleen Burke, who recently resigned. Jim James suggested that we do not replace the members until the spring election for all board members. Michael Henry suggested that John Hand and former state representative Carol Tempest would make very interested and excellent board members. Jim James moved that John Hand and Carol Tempest be elected to the board, which was passed unanimously. Rhonda Knop introduced Robert Wells, who is interested in publishing a directory of services and activities in Capitol Hill. He has published similar booklets or magazines in Boulder, and he distributed samples of these for inspection*. All members of the Board seemed to agree that such a directory would be very valuable for the neighborhood, but there was disagreement as to whether CHUN should play any role in endorsing the activities of a profit-making activity. Bill James moved that we go on record as endorsing the concept of such a directory to be distributed free in the community (with revenue from advertising). After discussion, eleven members voted for the motion, three against. Motion carried. Bernie Jones continued his report of last month on the Capitol Hill Coordinating Committee mountain retreat - which was reported in full in the last Urban Dweller (CHUN Newsletter). Bernie moved that CHUN should encourage long-range planning among the various private groups and agencies, and should co-sponsor a retreat twice a year for that purpose. Motion passed unanimously. Bernie then moved that CHUN sponsor a forum sometime before the May 20 election for City Council Candidates. Motion passed unanimously. Cathy Donohue volunteered to help with the forum. Dugan Middleton reported on the street lights and other activities of the Planning Office. Patty Jackson moved that annual dues be raised from $2.00 to $3.00. Motion passed unanimously. With that inflationary move, the meeting was adjourned. ^ i y k. v. y. v tf v t y v. y v y y y .Vi.y .w y. m m h w v, y y, y y y, y, tf, y y v, m y y y v. v, ,v wl y.nVi \f. v„ v. v y y Y v. v. vr. v. v. v y v y v...it. v g__M.
