Upcoming Meeting and Neighborhood Clean Up

April Neighborhood Meeting

Our next Spencer Road Neighborhood Association meeting will be Saturday, April 6th at 11am. This time we will be meeting in the community room of Stone Quarry Apartments, 400 Spencer Road. Please join us to meet our new city council representatives, Phoebe Brown and Kayla Matos. We’ll have coffee and some snacks, and time to get to know each other and to share our concerns about the Spencer Road community.

Parking is extremely limited at the apartments, so walk if you are able; otherwise, plan to park on the street. There is also limited seating in the community room, so bring a folding chair if you can. Those of us who live closest will bring some extras to share.

Fall Neighborhood Clean Up

This weekend we are having a neighborhood clean-up. Rather than gathering as a group, we are asking that folks work on their own or with friends to pick up roadside trash dumped around their property. Contractor bags will be available on the front porch of 410 Spencer Road. There will also loaner reflective vests and work gloves available. Please sign them out on the sheet on the table and sign them back in when you return them.

Please only include road-side trash, not household garbage.

The collected trash will be picked up by the city on Monday, November 13 from 411 Spencer Road, across the street from where you will be returning any borrowed equipment. Look for the sign by the street side wall to know where to leave your collected trash.

Upcoming events

There will be no September meeting this month.

We will be having our Fall Road Clean Up Saturday, September 14th. We will meet at the Spencer Road/South Meadow Street Extension intersection at 10:00am. Please bring gloves if you have them. Bags will be provided. The rain date is Sunday, September 15th.
