May Greetings, my friends -
Well, Spring 2019 has finally hit and while it brings us many challenges there are many opportunities to help our Village early this year with neighborhood clean ups, property maintenance reminders and your continued support in so many ways. The month of May brings our spring kick off with our annual EEVA Pub Crawl on May 17th, and our Motor City Cleanup is planned for May 11, 2019 – please see information in this newsletter – we need you for the cleanup – please join us this year!
The April General meeting was a full house. Please note: our general summer meetings will include a vil-lage pot luck dinner starting in June - so please plan on attending our summer meetings with your best dishes to share and taste test.
May is for Making Plans!

Our Guest speakers for May will include our new 5th precinct DPD Captain Michael DiCicco, along with Terry Martin from Building and Safety, and Kathy Roddie covering our next clean up effort with our friends at Blue Cross Blue Shield and details about our annual Garage Sale in June. There will also be an update on what’s up with East Warren.
Thanks to all that helped with our clean-up in April; we had a very good turnout of U of M students and the usual group of dedicated residents. Special thanks to DPD for additional patrols, and BIG thanks to our Residential Chair Kathy Roddie for leading the event again this year. We look forward to next year and for an even bigger crowd - plan to join us in April of 2020 and we'll be sure to get the information out as soon as possible!
Our work continues with Commander Ewing, Captain DiCicco, Sgt Pawl and their team on current local quality of life issues and we will review our progress. Your street rep and/or block captain is a good resource for more information on your partner-ship to build our status as a Community of Choice.
Please remember cars, trucks and trailers are not to be parked on any lawn area per City code, including your
backyard area and pets must be taken care of for their benefit and your neighbors. Please note: garbage cans of all types are to be placed behind the line of the back of the house per City of Detroit code–not the driveway or under your neighbor’s windows on the driveway side... Let’s clean up the issue and please refer to your trash collection calendar for proper pick up dates!
As the weather improves and we are outdoors more, take a moment to greet and welcome all of our new residents to the Village!
Please have a happy and safe Memorial weekend!

the entire team, and should fuel you through the 4 p.m. finish.We need village volunteers to lead assignments and participate as much as possible that day - even for a spare an hour or two.
