Regrets Aura Hertzog Brenda Davis-LokerThe meeting was called to order at 7:15 p.m. George moved that the minutes from the meeting of October 2^nd be accepted as read. This was seconded by Paul and carried.

Weber Park Diane moves that she be given authority to initiate a sponsorship program to amass funds for 12-14 park benches to be installed at the perimeter of Weber Park. This is seconded by George and carried. David suggests that we confirm the location of the benches making sure that our idea meets with the City’s approval. As well, we will find a way to offer charitable donation receipts to the sponsors. Diane will ask Rick Fairbairn if the City of Kitchener has a linear foot price for the installation of pathways in various materials.Civic District On October 16^th there was a public meeting attended by Paul, Diane and George that focused on achieving comments and ideas from the public concerning future changes and development of the Civic District. The impact on CFNA will not differ from what it is now but as a NA we should be informed and monitor changes in traffic patterns, parking etc…

Heritage The Downtown neighbourhood Association now has a Heritage Designation and a new name: Olde Berlin Towne. Should CFNA consider a similar designation to protect our streetscape and property styles? Our group would like to have Leon Benason (C. of K. Heritage Planner) at one of our Action Team meetings in order to be fully informed prior to making a decision. Paul volunteers to contact him. This could be an AGM topic.Treasurer’s Report There are no changes in our financial status from last month.

24 Krug The construction is progressing. We have no choice now but to wait until the property becomes occupied. At that time we will be able to see what form the occupation takes…rooming house…triplex…whatever.Newsletter It is decided that we will issue a two-page newsletter that will be delivered with the DCC Program Guide. All articles must be sent to Grace no later than November 15. Diane will report on Weber Park. George will report on the final outcome of The Treasure Book campaign. Aura will submit an article about our new web site.

Facilitator’s Report November 30^th is the deadline for CFNA’s program grant application. George will do it. We receive $25.00 per program.Meeting Adjourned at 9:10 p.m.
