III. NEW BUSINESS
A. 2007 Event Planning: A committee of business owners on
39th Street are meeting regularly and primarily focusing on
the upcoming 3rd Friday events for 2007. Representatives
from the Event Subcommittee brought an idea to the Board
for consideration for this year's 3rd Friday events. The Board
was undecided about the recommendation and wants to assess
whether investing in 3rd Friday events is worthwhile from a community
relations point of view. After much discussion it was agreed that the
Event Subcommittee would return to the February Board meeting with
a detailed budget request on which the Board could make their decision.

revenue received for deposit in December 2006.

39th Street West brochure she is working to get produced. This is the same

corrected merchant information and a map to aid visitors in finding their way
to 39th Street.

artwork for a six month period beginning in February and March. New design will
be ready for the March promoting 3rd Friday.
C. Security: There have been reports that security is not responding when necessary.
I have contacted Metropolitan Patrol and asked them to correct the situation and

get more information in February.
