Ben’s Workshop early morning concrete pour next Tuesday 3/26

Posted on March 21, 2013 by President

We received notice that Ben’s Workshop will need to pour the concrete slab for their new facility at 2109 South Congress at 1AM on Tuesday 3/26.  Please see the notice below.  As Bill mentions, this is allowed by City Code, so we are grateful when a developer gives the neighborhood advanced notice and attempts to minimize the impact.

I wanted to reach out to the neighborhood group and apprise you of a unique circumstance with the construction of our new facility on South Congress. Our contractor is scheduling the foundation pour on Tuesday the 26 of March starting at 1am. The foundation must be poured as a complete unit and dried in a controlled environment. Current daytime temperature preclude us from pouring during the day. City codes allow for this type of circumstance but we are committed to becoming a good neighbor and wanted to inform the neighborhood group ahead of this event. We plan on exercising great effort to keep noise and activity at a minimum and assure you that this is a one time event and don’t anticipate any other distraction of this nature during the course of our construction. I thank you in advance for your understanding and patience as we complete this project.

SRCC Annual Potluck Election – Tuesday March 5th @ 6PM

Posted on February 20, 2013 by President

Come on down! Join your neighbors in the ‘hood for the annual potluck and elections for the executive board.

The 2012 SRCC executive team has been excellent. This is the time to come by and give thanks for all of their work… and share some tasty food! A special thank-you goes to Les Case, who after two years as our treasurer, is stepping down. We are fortunate that several current members have agreed to serve again, if elected, in 2013. The nominee slate is:

President: Marc Davis (P since 2012, VP since 2009)

Vice President: Carol Martin (VP since 2012, Communications Chair since 2010; Membership Chair as long as she can remember)

Secretary: Garret Nick (Secretary since 2007)

Treasurer: Nancy Byrd has stepped forward to replace Les Case

Nominations will be accepted from the floor. Anyone wishing to run for the office is encouraged to contact Marc Davis, our current President or any of the other officers prior to the Tuesday March 5th meeting:  president@srccatx.org

Please note that this meeting differs from our normal monthly general meetings – it’s on a Tuesday and it starts at 6PM – we do this to avoid scheduling conflicts at GUMC

A Note on Voting Eligibility:

Feb. 5th was the deadline to become a new member and vote at the general membership meeting, BUT if you have not lapsed membership in two years, you can pay your dues on the floor and vote. And of course, we encourage your membership in the neighborhood association at any time. And come in ny event! Meet your neighbors!
