2/1/17 CFNA Annual Meeting Minutes Welcome by Joanie Fauci, current CFNA President Guest Speakers: Troy Rohn—Trustee, Boise School Board—needs our help. • Over one half of our schools were built before 1960, and need over 300 million dollars in repairs. • Having to use portables to relieve overcrowding. Boise police have deemed these to be unsafe. • Hillside to get new cafeteria and gym. • No increase in property taxes due to the expiration of the 1996 bond and 2012 levy—this will replace them. • CFNA voted to support the Boise School Bond. • The vote for the school bond will happen on March 14th. • Go to yesforboiseschools.com for more information or to find out about making donations.
Evan Carpenter — Public Works, Composting Service—Curb it Boise will be adding compost year-round service. • Ada County did study and found 45% of waste is organic. Very expensive for landfill. • Most customers will have an estimated monthly increase of $3.40 depending on level of service chosen. • Information regarding this program will come out in next utility bill notice in February or March. • More information can be found on curbitboise.org.
Julie Hulvey and Natalie Nation—The Library! At Collister—talked to us about how the library wants the facility to help us and find out issues and goals for our neighborhood. • The Library offers many services and classes. Many classes included are computer classes. • There also is a book club held at Highlands Hollow. • More information about the library is available online.
