Welcome YAHOO WACO list migrants! By consensus we decided to move to the IO platform, at least for now, since YAHOO will be ending its group service soon. There are features here to explore and utilize if we wish. I’m as much a newcomer to the site as most of you, so feel free explore, try out new features and report back to the group. This is, still, the Westmoreland Area Community Organization email discussion list It is a discussion list for the residents of the Westmoreland Area Community Organization (WACO) neighborhood, Takoma Park, Maryland. Please recommend the list to your neighbors. LIST GUIDELINES We follow the guidelines and statement of purpose set forth at the beginning by then-president of the Westmoreland Area Community Organization Arthur Karpas. The current president is Bruce Moyer. __________________________________________________________ Hello neighbors, I hope this listserv works to bring our neighborhood closer together. Here we can ask for and offer services, loan and borrow tools, books, and all sorts of stuff. We can discuss common concerns, plan group parties, ask neighbors to watch our houses while we are away on vacation. We can set up child care cooperatives, find apartments and sublets. Let's do it! --Arthur Karpas July 7, 2001 __________________________________________________________ Also some reminders and additional guidelines: Please keep your messages civil, even if you are in disagreement with someone else. Remember that if you reply to a list message, you are not sending a private message to that person, everyone will read it. Please do not "cross-post" material written by another person without that person's permission - this includes posting a message from this list to another list or posting a personal note to you. Thank you all! You make this a good community by participating! --Bill Brown, Moderator

Hi there, My partner found a phone on the sidewalk on Hickory near Montgomery with a distinctive lock screen with some cats on it. If this is your phone, please email me at efrojas@... or call/text me at 626-664-1492. I'm out for the night but can leave it in a secure location for you to easily pick it up. Best, Eric

Does anybody have a carousel-type slide projector they would be able to lend and/or wish to give/barter/sell? I have lots of arugula! Jeff at 51 walnut.

Hi Neighbors, Our friends’ son is turning 3. For all past birthdays/holidays, we’ve relied on free presents that people have left on the sidewalk. We would like to continue this sustainable trend, but unfortunately the streets have not provided this year. Does anyone have something that maybe a child has outgrown that would be suitable for a 3-year old? Thanks in advance!! Best, Amy + Brenden 7001 Westmoreland

Hi all, I’m looking to remove half of a chain-link fence. If anyone has a strong wire cutter to loan that would be much appreciated. Thanks, Nick on Westmoreland

WACO Neighbors: Seventeen folks attended last night’s informative WACO meeting via zoom. Thanks to everyone who participated, especially City staff and Council Member Schlegel. City staff from the police and housing/community development departments provided briefings on parking enforcement, Ward 3 crime data, and traffic and pedestrian issues in the neighborhood. A Ward 3 crime data report from the police department was especially illuminating. Also, those present approved sending a WACO letter to the DC Dept. of Transportation to request DDOT’s review of the safety of the Eastern Avenue and Walnut Avenue intersection and the benefit of a traffic signal at that intersection. We’ll share that letter with everyone once drafted. The link to the meeting video is here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/bwkckewvp2ihuj2ynu1bg/video1041369346.mp4?rlkey=j2ow3mhsxxfc9ewg2g5x8dwcf&st=29aj48iq&dl=0 Here are the time cues to topics discussed during the meeting. Parking enforcement in WACO and Old Town 6:00 - 35:32 Ward 3 Crime data (powerpoint) 35:45 - 52:30 New city process for considering new speed bumps (traffic calming measures) and sidewalks (powerpoint) 52:40 - 1:06:55 Eastern/Walnut Intersection Traffic and Safety: 1:07:00 - 1:16:55 Approval of WACO Letter to DC DOT re: Eastern and Walnut Intersection 1:17:00 - 1:28:50 Please contact me if you have any questions. Enjoy a safe Memorial Day weekend! Best, Bruce Moyer WACO President 6907 Westmoreland 301-452-1111 bruce@...

If someone was expecting two half finished bottles of wine on their porch yesterday---they were left on our porch and would be happy to turn over to the correct recipients. If someone is gifting it to us, thank you and let us know who you are! -Lois and Bob 7005 Westmoreland
