2. N’hood boundaries
   • Old boundaries: Vernor, W. Lafayette, W. Grand, Other Clark → using the Census tract. Old HFNA was a 501(c)3. Established in the late ‘70s? Org took on too much and collapsed under its own weight.
     1. One option: using more natural boundaries (freeway, Toledo – or railroad tracks . . . ) → broader than the historic district or not. If we go all the way over to the freeway, then we’ve overlapping with Hubbard-Richard.
        1. Logic for this: lots of interest from both sides of W. Grand because both sides of W. Grand were organizing.
     2. The Hubbard-Richard CDC is already a legal body, so overlapping with those groups doesn’t make sense (Deb)
     3. Come up with a process for choosing boundaries (we’ve debated this before), or just choose boundaries? (Eliz)
     4. Stick with historic boundaries for now and just say we’ll be working in alliance w/ other groups in the area for now (Christina)
     5. Propose the Historic District boundaries at the 9/18 meeting . . . 
   • Directory?
   • Phone numbers?
   • Who is in it?
3. Process for setting up an interim board
   • Community gathering 9/18 – election for the board
4. Listserv
5. Possibly housing committee update (SWSolns)
6. Optional: Urban planning projects?
7. Optional: Mini-grants?
