Garden Walk- Diane Day reported that posters will be going up in Stir Crazy
There are 13 houses on the walk this year, and the committee has had requests
for additional printed programs. We are so pleased that it is a popular event.

CleanUp- Bert Perkins reported that the city really came through for us this
year, and arrived early with 4 trucks and a boom truck. Each truck had a driver
and a helper. The neighborhood support was missing, however, and only
4 people showed up to help. This was very disappointing.
It was felt that perhaps not enough people got sufficient notice that the cleanup
was taking place. We will do a better job with more signage and more notice for
the Fall CleanUp. No one was willing to discontinue having the cleanup, since it
is very important for our neighborhood.

Traffic- Carolyn O'Leary reported that the Westbrook project for the residential
traffic circle at Crestwood will begin in July. It is scheduled to be completed in
August. Two splitters will be located between Crestwood and the Azalea Mall
entrance. A third splitter will be located in the 1600 block of Westbrook
between Crestwood and Hermitage.

Virginia Carpenter had information to share on the proposed Bellevue traffic
circle at Fauquier. She stated that she did not feel there was a need for the circle.
She passed around pictures from her findings on the internet.
It was also reported that the stopmarks have not been repainted on Crestwood
and on Fauquier.

spring and there are many houses listed for sale in Bellevue.

Tim McCaffrey shared plans to have a Bellevue Golf Tournament, and by show of
hands in the assembled meeting, there would be a good level of participation.

Tim also shared plans to have a Northside night at the Diamond with the Flying Squirrels.
This was well-received too.
