The inaugural meeting of the PHNA Board of Directors was held on Monday, 16 January 2012.  In accordance with the ByLaws, the following appointments were made:

Fred Robinson, President (one year term)

Jeff Minch, Vice President (two year term)

Polly Swain, Treasurer (two year term)

Laura Sharp, Secretary (one year term)

Carl Williams, Director at Large (one year term)

  1. Fred will be the Chairman of the Governmental Affairs Committee dealing with traffic issues; MoPac improvements; land use, zoning and development; City and Community liaison.
  2. Jeff will be the Chairman of the Communications and Security Committees.   The Communications Committee will oversee the website, the ListServ – Neighborhood List and the Pemberton Journal.  Laura Sharp will assist with the Communications Committee. The Security Committee will oversee the Security Program, fundraising for the Security Program, Austin Police Department liaison, liaison with other neighborhood associations pertaining to security issues and the Block Captains.
  3. Polly will chair the Finance Committee dealing with accounting, financial statements, cash management, insurance and the collection of dues.
  4. Laura will chair the Administration Committee overseeing the ByLaws, meeting agenda and meetings, membership, neighborhood lists (members, eligible voters), privacy issues and elections.
  5. Carl will chair the Social and Special Projects Committee with responsibility for the Annual Neighborhood Picnic, Christmas carriage rides, neighborhood coffees/teas, Triangle fundraising and other neighbor initiated projects and events.

Each Boardmember will be staffing their committees over the next few weeks.  As an example, the Security Committee has already held a Security Working Group meeting which attracted approximately thirteen interested neighbors and another approximately fifteen interested neighbors who were not able to attend on that date.

Later this month, the Board will conduct a Survey Monkey Survey to gauge neighborhood interest in specific issues and to solicit members to serve on specific committees.

In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact Boardmembers directly to express your interest in serving on any committee that they may chair.

    Any neighbor who is interested in serving on a 4-person Security Committee, please contact me directly at 512-476-5141 or jminch@littlefield.com.

    We will continue to maintain a larger support group — Security Program Working Group — but the day to day work will be done by the Security Committee.

    The Security Program Working Group will have another meeting in February as part of the twice yearly out reach program.

    Fund raising for the Security Program will resume in February also.

      The Security Committee has been filled though it did grow to a total of 8-10 persons. We have had our first meeting and we will be following up on some of those initiatives.

      Thank you.
