Our homeowners' association Board of Directors held their monthly meeting on Dec. 4, at the Arts Center office. Board members present: Howard Corey (Pres.), Jack Mayer (Treasurer), Arlene Ripp (Secretary), & Andrew MCauley, and Florence Harrison (Asso. Mgr,). Absent: Robert Tierney (Vice Pres.). About 15 home owners were also present.
1) The minutes of the Nov. meeting were read and approved.
2) The Treasurer reported a positive bank balance and made the printed report available to those present.
3) Florence Harrison reported that the sprinkler systems have been winterized. Also, the type of mulch to be applied in the Spring will be reviewed in January (to avoid the problem with the artillery mites.
4) Carol Ray (our Neighborhood Watch Coordinator) reported that the Police Dept. has recognized us a fully operating program. They have also provided us with a web site to check on crime reports in our neighborhood. Click on:

After arriving at that site, scroll down to the end click on "View calls for service within neighborhoods having a Neighborhood Watch Program", then go through the alphabetical list of neighborhoods until you reach Chester Village Green.
5) Landscaping: This committee will meet with state/county officials to develop a plan for the trees along our roads before they begin to uproot our sidewalks.
6) Because of the frequent rain, the alleyways will be resealed in the Spring.
7) Our legal consultant is now reviewing issues regarding resident non-compliance of our by-laws and covenants,
8) Proposed electronic sign: 2,500 - 3,000 vehicles turn into CVG from Rt. 10, most of which go to Walgreen's and the library. Most never see the businesses in Festival Park. All agreed that they want to support efforts to build business for the businesses in CVG, including Festival Park. One problem is that Festival Park sees itself as separate from Chester Village Green (CVG). A common name and common marketing approach seems to be necessary. All agreed that they do not object to a sign on Rt. 10 to draw people into otherwise unknown businesses, and they all agreed that such a sign should not be electronic. An alternative non-electronic, flood-lighted sign was presented, see below: (Click on the image below to make it larger.)
