Comments regarding neighborhood matters:

nice neighborhood, affordable, family oriented, good schools and community activities. I would love to see 24th St. reduced to 2 lanes with bike lanes and parking for businesses! On going problem of cars going to fast, not coming to complete stops. I can't wait for the restriping on Freeport to create bike lanes all the way to Midtown! Improve school traffic hang up phones zone slowing down Chinese strip cleaned on back & improve prkg I love the location. Survey sb n HPNA newsltter. MANY ppl r not interested n using computers OR going to HPNA events This survey is ONLY effective if you allow detailed feedback vs. radio buttons - who designed this? ...neighborhood is pleasant and peaceful; businesses meet most of my needs, busline could be better Public transportation limited for mobility-challenged n/a Understanding the question, I am satisfied being part of Hollywood Park neighborhood. Re-cycle center 24th & Business areas need updating Traffic to/from schools very often fast/careless. Scavenging is better Don't need parking permits. There have been many incidents of drug selling/buying on 23rd Street & Knight Way. traffic/ parking for LDV is my main concern I love the ethnic and socioeconomic diversity here! HPNA is a great organization - thanks for your efforts to make H. P. a better place to live! Scavengers trespass to get to trash/recycling cans that are stored along the sides of houses. Traffice should be re-routed to enter only from Freeport or Oregon Street to shopping center. Make the intersection next to the Starbucks shopping center safer for pedestrians to use. Need more than 100 characters here please. Bus #2 should run more often. Reduced foot/car traffic through neighborhood would be good.

Do you have any questions or comments for the Hollywood Park Neighborhood Association?

Not everyone is on Nextdoor and Facebook. Nor does everyone check this website everyday. Events need to be better publicized. Newsletter needs to be out at least 10 days BEFORE meetings and events. On paying membership, I had no formal notice of payment, or introduction into the rules, regs, operations, goals, election process, etc. of the association. The FB page has gotten much better! The Association has done a great job this year! You are all doing a great job. Keep up the good work! Thanks for all you do.Get Keep it going! Current newsletter 9/4/14 is much improved.. Design is quite professional. Nice work! :) On this form, tell us up front the character maximum for each box. Can there be a way to get the commercial properties rented more quickly? Can the nbhd assoc. state the nbhd is tired of vacant and empty places? HPNA gone downhill. HPNA board uses excuse tht thy dont have time 2 do NEthing cuz thy have othr payin jobs, thn thy shouldnt volunteer 2B on board @ all. Why don't you write a new mission statement to reflect what you actually DO? The board is now pathetic. It used to be a respectable organization. Long time residents are helpful. New ones aren't until they need help and learn better. Frequent active community leaders (as city councilmen, firemen, police, educators, travelers, musicians. When are we getting rid of all the mistle toe. Vote no on Proposition L. Good job, good effort. The last paper had things missing. When is the neighborhood flea market? when there are meetings, it would be great to have nametags or introductions, to get to know more folks! I would love to attend meetings but I'm at work when they occur. Overall this is a fine neighborhood to live in. Being essentiallly homebound, participation is limited to using my computer. I enjoy the give-and-take that oftern occurs. Good job! Thanks for your time and effort. "All" Newsletters/minutes/projects needed on web site. Make it easy to get to HPNA. When it first started I tried to join one of the groups. I don't remember which one. But my wife and I were just ignored. Cont. from "Least" above - Cars pulling into the business strip at the light on Freeport/Irvin. Entrance too close to the intersection. good job Is there any way you can provide more public forums so that we can participate in neighborhood decisions regarding different development proposals that effect the neighborhood and other city issues? More neighborhood activities that differ from "eat food and watch a movie" I need to get more involved! I love that the light poles are decorated for the holidays. It's just sad to live on the only street without lights or decorations. Stay out of peoples personal business.

It would be convenient to have phone numbers for an alternate way of contacting folks in the Association. Keep up the good work! Not enough spaces available in the fill-in questions above! Again, thanks for your efforts to improve our neighborhood! Kudos for hold the association meetings. They are a great way for keeping up on what is going on in the area. Side note - the low character limit on the comment fields makes them a bit useless. Thanks for the newsletter - it's great to read about neighborhood activities. For future surveys, please change the survey so the open comments can be longer than 100 characters. Thanks. I don't participate only because I rent The intersection where 23rd St meets 24th St needs a "keep clear" for north bound traffic so that cars on 23rd Street can cross over to the right turn lane onto Sutterville when the light is red. keep up the good work! You guys are doing great. Thanks Thanks for what you do. But I didn't feel especially welcomed at the two meetings I attended but lots of good info provided. The "MOST" & "LEAST" boxes in this survey need more allowable characters!! You guys do a great job putting things together and continually inviting even those of us who haven't gone to events. We will eventually. When is the next newsletter deadline? I wish we could participate more but the neighborhood meetings always seem to conflict with work or other activities... We hope to attend a meeting soon! I to commit to delivering the newsletter on a regular basis. That is as far as I am willing to volunteer at this time. If HPNA board positions were divided into smaller duties, more people would/could volunteer. Most of the jobs take a lot of time of which some feel they don't have.
