HPNA January Meeting
The issue of late night basketball playing at Shipe Park was mentioned. Apparently some folks have been playing basketball loud and long in the park. Bruce Nadig said that he would address this situation with Officer Brent Dupre, Hyde Park's APD District Representative. It was pointed out that Shipe Park officially closes at 10:00pm.
Co-President Nadig also brought up a frightening crime story. In November and December there were reports of a man entering the apartments of women. This happened in Hyde Park as well as some other neighborhoods. The man always entered through an unlocked door. When discovered, the man would make up an excuse as to why he was in the residence.
There are two shocking things that stand out here. First, people in our area are leaving their doors unlocked, thus allowing strangers to easily enter their property. Second, upon discovering the man many residents did not report the incident to the police. In the interest of safety and security, everyone was reminded that they must take basic steps to be responsible for their own safety.
Other Issues
Next on the agenda, HPNA membership voted to approve
both the new By-Laws and the new annual budget.
Both of these items passed without any excitement.
The 2003 Hyde Park Homes Tour was discussed briefly,
and the homes tour organizational meeting was announced for January 8,
2003. It was announced that Wendy Biro-Pollard of The Austin State
Hospital had expressed interest in having the Hospital's Old Main Building
on this year's tour. This was met with a very favorable response. While
not a done deal yet, the prospect of this happening is very exciting.
The meeting was adjourned and everyone enjoyed a few
minutes of visiting and socializing with friends.
