[Neighbors] Fw: Very informative neighborhood meeting- THIS MONDAY

[Rebecca Brady]

Hello and thanks for the updates on the meeting!
I am new to the neighborhood, so I appreciate the info and also appreciate
this format to communicate with neighbors :)  If someone can help me please
with the neighborhood patrol.  I left a check in someone's mailbox (and it
didn't occur to me to note that address) back in November and I have yet to
hear from anyone or receive the patrol ph#.  Jen has included me in an
email to someone about this but I have yet to hear back after emailing a
couple of times.  If there is anyone on this neighborhood email that can
help me with this?!
Much appreciated,
Rebecca
