Anne will get a list from Ken of where machines are currently located so they can be dealt with. Katrina will be sending a “help wanted” message out to the neighborhood listserv regarding various paid and/or volunteer jobs, including the vending machines. Monika is also setting the NLNA up with an online program that allows volunteers to sign up for specific jobs for events.While there is still an urgent need for a fundraising chair, none of the current board members are able to take up that responsibility. However, Monika has agreed to be a central source for organizing events and Frank has agreed to take on looking into grants and other non-event based funding sources. Lystra pointed out that the fundraising chair does not need to be a Board member and that a general solicitation for help with fundraising should be sent out to the neighborhood.New BusinessThere was a general request that old and new business be addressed at the beginning of Board meetings rather than the end to allow more attention to be given to these issues.Rick proposed that Lara be regularly present at NLNA Board meetings to deliver a report on her activities.Katrina reported that there will be a cleanup at Madison Memorial park this Saturday (Oct. 12) from 9-11 a.m.The meeting was adjourned by acclaim at 9:13 p.m.Addenda:

President’s Report, October 2013

1. PLANNING AND POLICY-RELATED ISSUES

• Mission – Don is ready to put the neighborhood survey online, after I review it with him.
• Casinos – No update. The PA Gaming Control Board is expected to issue a decision toward the end of the year, awarding a license to one of the six applicants.
• Central Delaware Master Plan – DRWC recently announced receipt of a grant that, when combined with other ongoing efforts, will allow for the creation of much of the waterfront trail in the next year or two. Details: http://planphilly.com/articles/2013/10/03/william-penn-seeds-5- million-more-for-waterfront-access
• AVI/Real Estate Taxes – The City is expected to implement Gentrification Protection regardless of whether the PA Senate finishes acting on a bill allowing the city means-test the protection. If the PA Senate doesn’t act, there will be no means test. The NLNA has not received formal decisions from OPA on our first-level review requests for 700-702 and for 704 N. 3rd. However, OPA appears to have corrected the erroneous assessment for 704. We are pressing ahead with a BRT appeal for 700-702. Because BRT hearings will not begin until January 2014, we still need to budget for just over $6,000 for 2014 real estate taxes.

2. FUNDRAISING/FINANCES/ADMINISTRATION

• Administration, Budget, and Finances – See the Treasurer’s report.
• Street/Sidewalk Cleaning – Any updates in the Clean & Green report.
• Events – The Fall Festival is October 27. Any updates during the Liberty Lands report.
• Spring Garden Greenway – No updates from last month.

3. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES AND DEVELOPER RELATIONS

• Piazza etc. – We continue to get some Piazza and Liberties Walk related complaints, primarily about trash around Liberties Walk Dumpsters. The new owners have replaced their local supervisor. Lara has been unable to get the new person to respond to her emails. I will try directly myself.
• Finnegan’s Wake – No update from last month.
• Sound Garden Hall – Larry will provide an update in the zoning report.
• Parking – No update.

4. OUTREACH/EVENTS/GENERAL MEETINGS

• General Meetings – The September GM, held at St. Michael’s Church, was well-attended, exceeding the capacity of our own space – and, by all acounts, provided helpful information on BRT appeals and related matters. The October GM also will be held at St. Michael’s. The Planning Commission wants to do a working-group style meeting to go over proposed zoning remapping of the community. We may or may not have large attendance, but we’ll need to spread out and probably divide up into groups based on where people live and/or own property and businesses.

5. COMMUNICATION AND PUBLICITY

• Internet – The email list has surpassed 2,200, and the Facebook group is now well past the 500 mark. The Facebook group in particular is growing quite fast. A small percentage of requests to join the group seem to come from individuals and businesses seeking to use it as a free promotional venue. So far, we’ve been allowing it to be more open than our email lists, but I have deleted posts (and occasionally deleted members) who clearly are not based in NL and are posting repeated commercial solicitations.
• Web site – No update – no news is good news. It’s running smoothly.

6. OTHER ITEMS

• Board Polls – Ratification of any online or online board polls since last month’s board meeting.

 

TREASURER’S REPORT – OCT 2013

2012-13 Budget Update

• For the year just ended income totaled $147,396 and expenses totaled $165,479.  The negative balance of $18,083 was more than offset with prior year funds of $94,441, bringing total year net income to $76,358.
• This balance includes:

◦     About $11,600 in grant money from the spring garden greenway project deposited into the reserve account for future park maintenance and landscaping.◦     About $8,400 in surplus general fund revenues remaining after payment of all known 2012-13 expenses. This amount was placed into the general fund reserve for future use.◦     About $2,500 in the charitable program.  These funds were placed into the charitable reserve for future use as determined by the board.◦     $16,800 from rent for the mailbox store.  This amount was un-programmed by the board in 2012-13 and also placed into the reserve account.◦     About $10,100 was carried over to 2013-14 for project Clean Streets and litigation expenses.◦     The remaining $27,000 was also transferred to the reserve account.Highlights of 2012-13 budget

• Revenue was $37,600 about budgeted levels, mainly due to higher than anticipated corporate contributions and fundraising income.  Expenses were only $2,800 less than budgeted levels.  About $55,00 was received in fundraising income, including more than  $18,700 from the annual appeal; this exceeded budgeted estimates by $9,000;
• Capital improvements were made to Liberty Lands, including improvements to the playground area and fountains. Plantings and bins were added as well.
• Receipt of $15,000  in corporate contributions enabled us to initiate a street cleaning program ($12,000) and to support our spring and fall fests ($3,000);
• A reduction in the interest rate charged on our mortgage was negotiated with the bank; this will yield $1,500 in savings in each of the next 5 years.
• A reserve account was established which will strengthen our financial operations and provide a source of funds to invest in our future and meet unexpected expenses.

2013-14 Budget Recommendations  - Report and tables attached 

 Liberty Lands Board Report – October 2013

• It's the end of the year, which means that the Northern Liberties Action Committee needs to hold its yearly board meeting, something we usually do at a regularly scheduled Liberty Lands meeting. Before we do that, the NLNA board should review the current NLAC board membership and make any changes that are appropriate (such as replacing Hank Sammon, who is still on the NLAC board but has moved away). The current NLAC board is Don Phillips, President; Janet Finegar, Vice President; Liz Reed, Secretary; Lystra Harris; Hank Sammon; Barbara Saverino; and Anne Waginger.
• The committee will also schedule its yearly “big meeting” for the park, probably for early December.
• At the last meeting, the Liberty Lands committee agreed that we need to create a job position at the park, which so far we're calling a “honey do-list” person. This employee would put in 10 hours a week during the active months doing weeding, maintenance, and trash pickup around the park, including any small jobs we asked him/her to do. We'd pay $15/hour (or $150/week) from April to October, or $4,200 a year. We think that's a reasonable offer for a job that will include at least some semi-skilled labor in terms of gardening and other tasks that we're just not getting done right now. It's clear that the volunteer efforts the committee is putting in are not enough to maintain the park at the level we'd all like to see it maintained. This added expense is a big increase in the park budget, but it should be noted that other major reductions in the budget from past years (including eliminating any payments for the movies, for example), mean that even with this additional expense the total expenses budgeted for FY2013-14 will be lower than the expenses for FY2012-13. We are also planning to raise community gardener fees from $30 to $50 to cover a bit ($600) of this salary, since at least some of the weeding responsibilities of this job would be taking over work the gardeners are supposed to do (but don't). We're also budgeting to receive $2,000 in park rental fees for next year, since I believe that one advantage of hiring the honey-do person is that we'll see more rental fees paid (and possibly can be a bit more aggressive about being sure they are collected).
• We also added $1,500 in capital improvements from the draft budget to re-design and build three new trash corrals. Despite nearly a year of trying, we've only gotten one volunteer-built corral (thank you, Frank!), and we just need them.
• Planning for the October 27 Fall Festival (the kids' Halloween festival) is going beautifully, and enough donations have come in for the event already to cover our expenses. We're seeing a lot of neighborhood participation from volunteers and businesses (especially our reliable friends like North Bowl, Standard Tap, Silk City/North 3rd, and (new!) Pieces of the Puzzle daycare). In addition, Kate Hawk (the organizer for the festival) is looking to plan a number of new kids' activities and events at the park in 2014 from the contacts being made through this planning.
• The International Day of Peace workday in September got a nice attendance from neighbors and the absolutely wonderful teens from local volunteer organization BuildOn. (A lovely donation of pizza from Rustica helped make the teens extra pleasant to work with!) The team managed to improve the condition of the Bodine Street planters enormously and got the community garden paths back into shape. At least one adult volunteer specifically came out because she saw it on the listserv messages!
• We will do one more workday this year – the PHS-sponsored “Love Your Park” workday on November 16. That will also be our clean-up/putting the park to bed for the winter workday.
• We've had an uptick in tomato thieves this year – Jen saw three men who climbed into the garden and harvested a full bag from her plot, apparently as if they have done this before. Jen confronted them and got the tomatoes back, but this is the second theft we've witnessed. It may require some brainstorming about possible ways to address the problem. In other garden news, Jen is planning to contact each gardener individually this fall to address maintenance and work hour issues.
• Our new trash employee, Greg Shamberger, seems to be working out well. He is interested in other part-time work in the neighborhood if small jobs arise.
• Janet has a plan for dealing with the rubber mulch! The new playground area at Kearny School was designed with a “grassy” section that will not ever be true grass. As soon as the construction on the new gym is finished, which is scheduled to happen someday, the school administration and Janet will work together to put the rubber mulch down in the school playground – ideally with the help of the adorable BuildOn teens. Please cross your fingers for this to work out (and SOON).
• Upcoming events:  October 27 (Sunday), 2-5 – Fall Festival;  November 16 – Love Your Park Workday; December 14 – Krampuslauf
• Board Action Needed: Nomination of NLAC Board members

ZONING COMMITTEE MEETING – Monday 9/30/13

Members present: Larry Freedman (chair), Ken Grono, Tim McDonald, Joe Mikuliak, Sharon Richman, Jonathan Sher, Ira Upin, Chris Issacson (2nd half)Members absent: Charlie Abdo, Michael Simons500-18 N. 2nd Street – I2 – Michael Mattioni:  A proposal to create two lots from one for a vehicle repair shop and auto body repair and painting. This shop would be put in ½ of the Transport Workers’ Union Building.  The auto body shop for DeSimone will have 11 bays.  Access would be through Noble Street.  There is a parking lot in the back of the building.  The front of the building on 2nd Street would be the office. Only water based paints would be used so there should be no toxic chemicals or odors.  No trash would be kept outside.  Hours will be 7:30 a.m. – 6 p.m. Monday-Friday and on Saturday it would be a ½ day in the morning.  This completion of this shop is not contingent on the construction of a proposed retail sales facility for new cars (with a café) on 626 N. Delaware Avenue.Motion (Tim) - 2nd (Ira): Vote 6-0    Thank you for your presentation.  We support this project as presented.887-80 Orkney Street – RSA5 – Jeremy Lecompe: Return visit with a proposal to create 2 lots from 3 to construct 2 single family swellings with frontage on Myrtle Street.  [In July 2013 the committee issued the following motion:  We cannot support the project as presented. The neighbors felt the structures were too high. Please return with a plan for one single family dwelling compliant with RSA5 requirements including open space and height or build on the three lots.] [August presentation: The revised plan for Parcel B (inner structure) maintained the original 41’ height, set back the 4th floor 8’, eliminated the pilot house and provided access to the roof deck by an exterior staircase.  The curb cut for the garage in the front of the house was also retained. The revised plan for Parcel A (corner structure) eliminated the 4th floor and included a deck on the roof of the 3rd floor.  The height of Parcel A adheres to code requirements.  Parking in 17’ stall at the back of the corner lot will require a variance.  Because there is no parking permitted on this street, the curb cut will not have a negative impact.  Neighbors continued to be concerned about the height of Parcel B.  It creates a massive wall facing an existing property.  August Motion:  We cannot support the project as presented.  Please return with plans for 1 or 2 house that are no higher than 38’.]  This presentation reduced the height of the inner unit to 38’ with no pilot house as requested.  After discussion with the Streets Department, the builder eliminated the outdoor backyard parking for the corner house (Parcel B) which now will have no parking provided.  The roof decks of both houses are set back 8’ from the street.  Building materials will be dark brick, fiber cement panels at street level and stucco on the rear wall along the alley.  The brick façade on Myrtle Street wraps around the corner to Orkney Street.  The 3’ light well and basement egress is proposed on the walkway area.  It would be flush to the walkway.  Drains will be in rear of house. The houses are being built to sell, not rent.  Discussion:  Neighbors complains that in previous job by another builder, the streets were shut down without notification making it difficult for neighbors to get to and from their homes.Motion (Joe) - 2nd (Jon): Vote 6-0  Thank you for your presentation.  We are pleased to see the new plans reduced the height of the two homes to 38’.  We understand that you will move the window well from the sidewalk to the rear of the building.  Please submit your plans to the UDC for a review of the cement board proposed at sidewalk level, the colors of the façade, the composition of the windows, the return of the cobblestone to good condition at the completion of the construction, the need for sidewalk vs. planting space.  A letter of support will be issued upon receipt of recommendation from the UDC.405-45 St. John Newman (NE corner of STJ & Leithgow) – CMX2 – Nino Cutrufello:  A proposal for 8-single family dwellings with garages. The 5 houses that front along N. Leithgow and the 2 that front along St. John Neumann have garages in the front creating a row of garages.  Six of three houses are 16’ wide.  The house on the corner has a garage in the rear with entry on entry on St. John Neumann.  The rear yards range in size from 130 sq. feet to 176 sq. feet creating just 17% open space in the smallest yard. Each house has a deck off the 4th floor (no roof deck).  The houses are 40’ high, but the corner house is the taller with the addition of a pilot house.  Proposed materials include white (or light) brick, light grey garage doors, smooth coat stucco, flat metal panels between windows, aluminum clad windows.  When questioned about staging the construction on two very narrow streets, the builder said they would start with the northern most end first and use the remainder of the lot for parking construction vehicles.  Discussion: Neighbors complained that the line-up of houses with the line-up of garages in front looked institutional or like a hospital; the lack of diverse fronts made it look like one massive structure; The architectural renderings did not reflect that the street actually slopes down; Neighbors were glad that there were no bays overhanging onto the narrow streets; There was no hardship demonstrated that necessitated building 8 houses [fewer houses could then lower the height of the homes and allow for a different garage arrangement; and, The backyard spaces are insufficient.Motion (Joe) - 2nd (Ira): Vote 7-0 Thank you for your presentation.  The neighbors had specific problems with the design for 8 homes at Saint John Neumann and N. Leithgow Streets.  These problems include: The monolithic garages on the front façade without any “eyes” on the street; Building houses on lots that re ½ the “legal” size with undersized rear yards; Height, especially of the corner house with the pilot house; and, The institutional façade. Please return with plans for a new design that has: a façade that is not so institutional looking; fewer homes with rear yards that are legally compliant; eliminated the pilot house on corner home; reduction of height to 38’ for all houses; get approval of parking plan from Streets Department; presents a site plan in context with surrounding homes; presents a site plan that reflects the slope of the street; information prepared regarding the staging of construction; and façade design elements showing how the utility meters will be hidden.628 N. 2nd Street – CMX2 – Ian Mellanby:  A proposal for a roof top deck. This tri-level deck with pergola is being proposed in reaction to the 38’ structure that is under construction next to this property.  The deck will give the existing property a light filled space.  The new building will reach to the mid-level of the railing of the new deck.  Supports for this deck will be constructed when the building next door reaches that level.  The scaffolding from the new building will be used to construct the deck so “staging” will not be an issue.  There are no rules for pergolas.  A spiral staircase will provide access to the deck.  The deck will be set back 7’ from 2nd Street.Motion (Jon) - 2nd (Ira): Vote 7-0 Thank you for your presentation.  The project is accepted as presented. 

Tuesday 10/1/13

Members present: Larry Freedman (chair), Charlie Abdo, Ken Grono, Joe Mikuliak, Sharon Richman, Jonathan Sher, Michael Simons, Ira UpinMembers absent: Chris Issacson, Tim McDonald,107 Callowhill Street – RM1 – Steve Maffei:  A proposal to create 5 units (4 residential and one commercial). This project proposes 5 units (one bedroom apartments that are 733-780 square feet) and one commercial unit with one parking spot in a garage that is set back 20’.  Each unit has a terrace that is set back from the street.  The building is 45’ high.  Each floor is 10’ high to compensate for the narrow rooms.  The developer will be the building owner, a resident of one of the units, will work in the commercial unit on the top floor and will utilize the parking spot in the garage.  There will be a roof garden. Materials proposed include masonry brick, porcelain tile, a rain screen and stucco on the side and back of the building.  The developer prefers brick and steel instead of a stick frame.  Windows will be insulated to eliminate highway noise and the roof deck will have some means to buffer I-95 noise.  He hopes to break ground in March-April.  Variances will be required for: lot coverage (86.1%); use (1 commercial unit); building height (45’); and rear yard.Motion (Jon) - 2nd (Ken): Vote 7-0 Thank you for your presentation.  A signed letter of support will be issued after receipt of signed and dates plans with a list of materials and a refusal that agrees with the presentation.801-05 N. 2nd Street – I2 – Herc Grigos:  A proposal for a 2-story building with a yoga studio on floor 2 and CMX2 proposed uses on ground floor. This project proposes retail on the 1st floor (a single tenant) and a bikram yoga studio on the 2nd floor (tenant already secured).  The building roof line will be the same height as the adjacent buildings on 2nd and Brown Streets.  The building design is contemporary, grayish brick, timber beams for the canopy/marquee between the first and second floor and a curtain wall on the second floor.  The building will be set back 2’ from its neighbors.  Each floor will have a separate condensing unit located on the back of the roof. More than ½ of the roof will be a green roof.  Trash will be stored in the basement with daily pick up.  There is no ZBA date yet and no refusals.Motion (Joe) - 2nd (Ira): Vote 7-0  Thank you for your presentation.  We would like you to meet with the UDC for a review and then return to the Zoning Committee with final plans that include a bike rack and the refusal.927-31 Front Street – I2 – Herc Grigos:  A proposal for 7-single family dwellings.This was a very preliminary plan for 7 houses that span between Front and Canal Streets.  There is a billboard on an 80+’ pole between houses #4 and #5. At this time they do not know where the sign footings are located.  Four houses are 20’ wide with 3,000 sq. ft. and 2-car garages.  Three houses are 16’ wide with 2,000 sq. ft. and one car garage.  All are 44’ high.  There are no basements.  This development is located between similarly situated houses on the north and south sides.  Approximately 21’-22’ are between the houses in this development and those on either side.  Pedestrians will be able to access Canal Street but car access will be limited to Front Street.  There will be a walkway between this project and one next to it.  The homes that are along Front Street and Canal Street are supposed to have “eyes on the street”.Once the developer receives their refusals they will design the façade and return with more details.Motion (Mike) - 2nd (Ira): Vote 7-0  Thank you for your presentation.  Please return with more detailed plans that maintain the 7-home configuration as presented.  These details include: drawings that will show this project in context with surrounding areas, elevations of all sides of the project, façade detail for Front Street and Canal Street, more information about the accessibility of the open area between homes #4 and #5 and how that area will be “treated” and detailed floor plans.1113-25 N. 3rd Street/1108-24 N. Bodine Street – RSA5 – Daryl Rothmund - A proposal to subdivide lots in order to create fee-simple homes as a change to the original variance. This request has no impact on this previously approved project.  It is a technical change.Motion (Mike) - 2nd (Ken): Vote 7-0 We approve your request to subdivide the 4 lots in order to create fee-simple homes as a change to the original variance.
