Our regularly scheduled neighborhood association is this Wednesday (11/13) at 6:30 pm. We are meeting in a new location -- 405 S Cascade Ave, Suite 204. The building is on the southeast corner of Cascade and Costilla and there are entrances off Cascade and Costilla. There are three visitor parking spaces in the lot off Cascade, which are the spots with sign posts but no signs saying "reserved for x." Otherwise, there is free street parking on Costilla west of Cascade and metered street parking on Cascade and Costilla in front of the building. If you're having trouble finding it, give me a call at (240) 421-7865.

We will be joined this month by John Crawford, manager of the city's Parking Enterprise, who will discuss with us potential solutions to parking issues created by the soccer stadium. We'll also hear updates on our neighborhood's ongoing campaign to win a Community Benefit Agreement covering the redevelopment of Martin Drake.

About the event
It's that time of year - you're probably hoping to finally start putting away the winter supplies and clean your house. Maybe you've noticed the number of branches and rubbish tumbling through the neighborhood from recent snow and high winds. Your property may back up to the railroad and be ready to get rid of unsightly encampment debris.

Please come join us in our annual neighborhood clean-up from 9AM to NOON on Saturday April 27, 2024. We will have dumpsters on both the north and south side of the railroad tracks thanks to the City of Colorado Springs Office of Housing and Neighborhood Vitality.

We hope to see you there! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, concerns, ideas, or the like.
