Early streep sweeping
Although street sweeping does not begin until April 1; DPW is trying to get out to do some early sweeping, to clean up the trash and sand that has accumulated. If "No snow" continues to hold out next week, they will be in the South End on March 4 and 5. If they will sweep a particular street, they'll poster lamps and flier cars 48 hours beforehand. If you park on a street that will get swept, please move your car so we can get a start on the winter's mess.

Looking for parking?
Passing on the following information that was emailed to the NA. Looks like an interesting source of parking information...
I would like to introduce you and your neighborhood to a great online
resource called www.ParkingSpotter.com. As the name suggests, the website
specializes in assisting neighborhoods solve their parking challenges with 2
great features. These are only two of our great features can that your
neighbors should know about.
1) Residents can use the website to find available parking spots for rent
among the 1000's we have listed - both public and private. This will
alleviate the headaches and tickets one gets from trying to find parking in
their own neighborhood each day.
2) Residents who don't use their spot can list it for free on our website
and make it available for rent. This is a great way to generate
incremental income while the spot is not in use - perhaps this is during
work day hours, or even on a monthly basis.

February meeting DELAYED
Hi Everyone! Hope all the winter snow isn't getting you down. Given warm weather today it almost seems like Spring can't be far away.
Our February meeting time is here, but we have a small change. Our regular room was booked, and we have a full agenda, so we have postponed our meeting by one week.
The February meeting will be Wednesday, February 11th
at our regular meeting place of Boston ballet 5th floor boardroom (Warren & Clarendon)
6:30-7 - Neighborhood Networking.
7-8:30 - Business meeting.
On the agenda for this month include two requests from Pops restaurant. They are applying to serve alcohol until 2am, and they are looking to expand the rear greenhouse. They are seeking letters of support for each request. They will be there to present their plans and answer questions.
There has also been a request to have a dialog with the south end Land Trust, the property owner for Berkeley Gardens. Representatives for Berkeley Gardens and SELROSLT will be on hand to present garden updates and answer any questions residents may have concerning the garden.
Hope to see everyone at the meeting, and remember we are a WEEK LATER this month, meeting on February 11th...
