General Members Meeting: Will be held tonight at 6:30pm. Don't forgot......come out and learn how to detect "bed bugs" and what the co-op will do if found in a members unit.
MAY HOUSING CHARGES: Housing Charges are due for May 2012 tomorrow no later than 12noon. A reminder flyer will be sent out to members requesting those that pay ANNUAL housing charges by post dated cheques that they should be submitted prior to June to the office so that no late fees incur. Members will also receive notice of any outstanding balance at May 31st, 2012 owing to the co-operative. It is important to ensure that all housing charges are paid in full every month. The auditor and the City of Hamilton will be revieiwng the co-op's arrears and policies during this audit process since many members are not following the required to PAY IN FULL AND ON TIME !
MONTHLY CALENDAR: The monthly calendar will come out tomorrow. Please keep this on your refrigerator as a reminder of committee meetings and office hours. THANK YOU.

Spring Clean Up
Thank you to all the members and teen for your participation and success of this past weekend's SPRING CLEAN UP. The pancakes were delicious and I think the kid's were pleasantly surprised that they received a special sports "gift" after helping participate in cleaning up our community.
Several teens went door to door to deliver the new TELEPHONE # magnet to each individual unit. For those who did not receive them, they will be sent out today by mail.
The Bake Sale was a success with over $60 profit made for the teen committee.
Look for upcoming flyers for a another possible PANCAKE BREAKFAST over the May 19th VICTORIA DAY LONG WEEKEND when the Gardening/Landscaping Committee will start planting flowers in the common area garden beds. Come out and help participate for this event !!

Garbage
Good Job East 27th Street...................
We still need to continue to do our best at re-cycling and use of green bins. Some re-cycling bags were re-sorted today since members where mixing water bottles with paper. You MUST sort these items differently. If you are not sure what goes in the same "blue bin" please contact the office and we will provide a magnet for your fridge to help remind you. Individual areas will be getting notices when concerns arise. The possibility of "tags" is iminent so the co-op wants to start working on changes NOW! All members on East 27th Street that have a "common" garbage area will receive a letter plus a map indicating the area that you MUST place your garbage and re-cycling. Staff will be drawing "orange" areas on the grass to help ensure members place them in the right areas. NO garbage will be permitted on the corner driveway off SHADYSIDE AVENUE or the walkway between units 101 and 103 Halam Avenue. We will be closely monitoring this and asking members to report offenders to the office, as well as, members are asked to report neighbours who are "dumping" on our property. If in the future, we are using the "tag" system then any additional garbage must be removed WEEKLY by staff and this will become both a cost and decrease time staff have to complete repairs in member units.
