Safety & Mobility Meeting Notes - February 19 2015
Mr. Orban said the lighting on Hamlet Street north of East Eighth Avenue is better than he
had thought, but lighting south of East Eighth Avenue is problematic due to a tree that has
grown over a streetlight.
Mr. Orban reported that the property manager of a nearby unit may have informed the tenant
that persons cannot stay in that unit if they are not on the lease. The situation in that unit
appears to be quieter.
Mr. Sterrett reported that he is awaiting a return telephone call from a representative in the
Columbus office of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development regarding
neighborhood concerns with Section 8 housing units owned by Veliko Ventures. The
representative has been out of town for several weeks of training.
Mr. Orban said he and Martin Weston, another Weinland Park resident, had talked recently
about police body cameras. He noted that Columbus City Council approved the purchase of
65 body cameras as a pilot.

next regularly scheduled monthly meeting of the Safety and Mobility Committee will be
Thursday, March 19, at 6 p.m. in the citys Northside Neighborhood Pride Center, 248 E. 11th
