APNA General Meeting 4/11/23 @ 6:30 PM

Hi Armory Parkers,

The APNA board voted to have a general meeting in April.  There are items of general interest that we feel the neighborhood should hear about.  So please come to the Safford School faculty parking lot (corner of 4th Ave. and 13th St.)  The library is the big boxy building next to the parking lot.  Please enter by the north side door.  You have to walk to the far end of the chain link fence and then back along the side of the library to the door.

Topics of general interest:

     1. A representative of the City of Tucson Transportation and Mobility Department will be there to talk about the scheduling of residential street repaving.

     2. Council member Steve Kozachik’s top aide, Diana Amado, will be there to answer questions.

     3. A rewrite of the APNA bylaws will be presented for approval.

     4. Meet your current board and talk to them about what you would like to see done in our beautiful neighborhood.

     5. There will be opportunity to raise concerns about our neighborhood.

See you next Tuesday.

David Bachman-Williams

APNA President

APNA Annual Meeting November 22, 2022

APNA will hold its annual meeting on Tuesday, November 22, at 6:30 PM. This meeting will include the elections of officers for next year and topics of interest to the community. Join it on Zoom.

NOTE: Normally, APNA meetings are on the second Tuesday of the month. The APNA board voted to move the APNA annual meeting to November 22. The Board felt that holding the meeting on Election night as normally scheduled would be problematic and reduce turnout. Keeping with Tuesdays the Board decided on the fourth Tuesday.

Membership!

A message from our President:

Hi Armory Parkers,

What a great neighborhood we live in.  Currently we have the highest membership in the neighborhood Association we have had in many years.  Thanks to everyone who is a member at this time. 

However, if you are not a member now is the time to join.  Friday is the last day to join and be able to vote for leadership positions.  It is very easy.  It costs just $10 a person and takes five minutes or less.

Go to:     https://armoryparktucson.org/membership/

Our Annual Meeting is scheduled for November.  We need leaders to step up and serve as officers and directors.  More from the nominating committee on that will be coming soon.

For now, make sure you are a member so you can vote in the Annual Meeting.

Thank you,

David Bachman-Williams

APNA President
