Steve has all of the documentation required by the city, except for the report and the student education project information.

  1. MCPHOA 2106 Annual Work Plan and Meeting Schedule:
In 2015 we logged 108.75 hours of service equaling a value of $2,718.75
In 2016 we will exceed our requirement of $1,000.00 in in-kind service again.

We will have two scheduled group clean-up events and we will have individual members report to Terrell with their personal hours spent maintaining the MCPHOA area.  Our services will be valued at $25.00 per hour.

Terrell will keep a spreadsheet of our service hours and Chris will get the permits and schedule the dumpsters for our two scheduled clean-up projects.

1.     Spring Clean-up will be April 16th at 3165 South 500 East, with a meeting at 11:00 AM and clean-up directly after.  We will need two dumpsters on 5th East.  Errol would like to at least trim the Russian olive on the island.  We’re hoping to get community service people to help.
