Paul Bertels was given a round of applause for making the needed changes at the intersection of Mandalay and Bay Esplanade as promised before our meeting in April! Lane striping has alleviated confusion at the intersection for north bound and left turning vehicles. Recommendations have been made to change a few things for exiting the beach over the new bridge, mainly at Court and Chestnut Streets. A possibility of eliminating one crosswalk at Osceola may be in the works for next spring break. Storm sewer line pipes have been staged at Kipling and Bruce. Lt. Wayne Andrews proclaimed operations normal now that the bulk of spring breakers are gone, however, we’ll have busy weekends ahead, Easter, Memorial Day, July 4, etc. North and South Bohenia are now in the police computer system (used to be when you called in an infraction the police department didn’t know where you meant). FYI, if you call into the Police Department to complain about a parking or noise issue, you can ask to remain anonymous. Minutes and Treasurer’s Report approved. Lisa Cowley stated that approximately 125 people attended the Neighborhood Picnic on Saturday, April 1. The fire and police departments attended and everyone had a good time and great food! Discussion held regarding short-term rental frustrations. The judge assigned to the case (city vs. investors) has ordered mediation. John Doran and Bill Jonson listened to members’ concerns and answered what questions they could. Another meeting with the Mayor will be held this Friday, April 7, as he was unable to attend the March meeting in his office.
