Thank you to everyone who joined in our meeting last night. The discussion about our experiences and feelings involving the police presence in Prospect Heights was as needed as it was moving, and we are incredibly grateful for everyone who contributed to the conversation. As promised, below is information on the various follow up items that came out of yesterday’s call:
NPHA leadership and elections
NPHA is dedicated to outreach and community participation. Because of the challenge of holding an election during the emergency conditions produced by the COVID-19 pandemic, we postponed our annual board election this spring and scheduled a new election for this upcoming October. After a year of hard work helping NPHA build, Cathy Iselin and Elaine Weinstein have stepped down as Co-Presidents of NPHA. They remain on the NPHA board. Our new interim Co-Presidents are Alyssa Keil and Linda Wilson. If you are interested in learning more about our board, or how you can join, please let us know!
Slack channel
NPHA members use SLACK to share information and ideas with each other. You can join our Slack channel by emailing us at the address below.
Next Meeting Re: Policing in Prospect Heights
We are very excited about continuing last night’s conversation at another meeting. We are working on finalizing possible times for our next meeting and will be following up shortly. Additionally, if you have any other thoughts on the current state of policing in the neighborhood or possible ways we can move forward that you would prefer to share directly with the Board, feel free to respond to us at the email below.
Community Development Committee Meeting
Everyone is welcome to join the Community Development Committee. It will meet Monday, June 22nd at 7 PM. It will discuss new information from HPD about development at its two sites, as well as Atlantic Yards and M-Crown. Details to follow.
All the best,
The North Prospect Heights Association Board
