Pilot Block Neighborhood Association General Meeting

The Pilot Block Neighborhood Association will hold its general meeting on Wednesday, October 12 at 6:30 p.m. in the South End Branch Library. Residents and neighbors are welcome to attend.

Agenda:

• Treasurer’s Report

• Neighborhood Safety

Following the tragic event over Labor Day weekend at West Brookline St. and Tremont, Sgt Provenzano and team will discuss the police reaction to prevent a recurrence of gang violence.

• Upcoming Elections, Street Ambassadors

In preparation for spring election of Board members, we will kick-off the nominating process, and outline a new Street Ambassador role to increase engagement within the neighborhood.

• Halloween Plans

In keeping with local tradition, we’ll discuss plans to make Halloween special for the hundreds of goblins, princesses, and action heroes who descend on the Pilot Block each October 31.

• Christmas Decorating Plans

Last year’s decorating was somewhat curtailed for lack of a space to assemble wreaths. We will discuss plans, and especially look for your help in sourcing an indoor, preferably heated space where can assemble wreaths for a few hours in early December.

• Zoning Updates

We will update you on zoning variance requests. We will also provide a status update on the proposal to site Dunkin Donuts in the commercial space at 655 Tremont St.

• Pizza and Beer

Following the business meeting, we’ll adjourn to a nearby restaurant for pizza, beverages, and conversation.
