If you are New to the neighborhood you may be asking what is the FOARG Neighborhood Association? Our Group exists to provide an open forum for all residents of the neighborhood to involve themselves in the affairs of the neighborhood.
Usually we hold a Picnic at the Park to get to know each other just a little better. This year, due to the pandemic, the Picnic will not be held, and our annual meeting will be online instead. Our hope is to be able to resume our picnic in coming years.
The board and I welcome owners of The ECO Housing community on New York. Finally, we are saying farewell to the construction challenges of the past few years and welcome our newest neighbors.
Some issues that this group have addressed in the past were to join with other neighbors to address excessive speed from rush hour traffic cutting through the neighborhood by encouraging the County to install Speed Platforms on Southcliff, Minnesota, and Magnolia up to New York. Some folks would like to see this continued on Magnolia, New York and Pennsylvania.
FOARG is actively working to facilitate timely re-pavement of our street’s surfaces.
The original purpose of forming this group was to play a role on how property development projects would impact our community at large to preserve the rural character of our neighborhood. The Pointe, at the corner of Howard and Sunrise is one such commercial endeavor we have focused diligently on. Finally, it looks like a reasonable development will be going in.
Though our picnic format has changed this year due to the state of the state, please join us for the 2020 Annual Meeting on October 24th at 12:00 Noon on ZOOM. We will be welcoming all newcomers as well as familiar friends and neighbors. Let’s get to know each other better. We will give oral reports on this year’s developments, answer questions and hold election of new board members. All are welcome.
