[Highland Park] Fw: Help!
by Sherry Goldman 17 Mar '10

17 Mar '10

>From my petsitter ----- Original Message ----- From: Mary Beth Howell To: Sherry Goldman Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2010 7:20 PM Subject: Help! Hi! Could you post an ad for a dog I found on the Highland Park website? I don't know how to do it...duh! Anyway, around six o'clock tonight a neighbor found a neutered male white and black Shih Tzu wandering around Stanton Avenue and he brought him to me. The dog was wearing a flea collar with a gold cross hanging from it (strange, I know) but he didn't have an I.D. tag. I drove around for a while with the dog in my van and asked a bunch of people on the street if they had ever seen the little guy before. Nobody recognized him. Anyway, I took the little guy to the Animal Rescue League on Hamilton Avenue. Their phone number is (412) 661-6452. Could you post an ad describing him the way I did and mention that I took him to the shelter??? Please help! Thanks!

[Highland Park] Stray Tabby Cat

There is a young (perhaps 8 months) short-haired tabby cat that seems a little lost near the corner of N. St. Clair and Elgin. It has no collar but is very friendly and seems a little confused.

[Highland Park] Paving Highland Park streets
by Keebler, Emily 17 Mar '10

17 Mar '10

Hello Highland Park residents, Councilman Dowd will be attending the Highland Park Community Club meeting this Thursday and hopes that you can attend to discuss paving streets in Highland Park. The city has limited funds for paving (here is a thorough article on the topic: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10059/1039273-147.stm) so we want to hear which streets you feel are the most important in your community. The decision on which streets will be paved is ultimately up to the Department of Public Works, but a clear list from the residents of each neighborhood can only help them understand what is most important to those that live there. We realize that not everyone will be able to attend this Thursday's meeting. If you cannot be there, please send us the worst three sections of street (with #1 being the absolute worst) with the main reason for the request. For example: 1. 1100 block of Main Street - potholes 2. 3400 block thru 3600 block First Avenue - drainage 3. Park Lane through Beech Nature Reserve - cracks Please send this list to emily.keebler(a)city.pittsburgh.pa.us and I will compile it for Dowd to bring to this week's meeting. Thank you, Emily Emily Keebler * Office of Patrick Dowd * Pittsburgh City Council District 7 510 City-County Building * 414 Grant Street * Pittsburgh PA 15219 * 412 255 2140 emily.keebler(a)city.pittsburgh.pa.us <mailto:emily.keebler@city.pittsburgh.pa.us> * www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/district7 <http://www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/district7>

[Highland Park] City Parks Permit Day
by amers＠att.net 17 Mar '10

17 Mar '10

We are planning to attend the City Parks Permit Day on 3/27 to try to reserve a pavilion in Highland Park for a specific date. If you have been through this process before, do you have any advice or comments? Is it important to arrive by 7:30am? Would you arrive earlier? How long does the process take? Do we get to choose the time that we want to use the pavilion or are there set times available? Or is it a whole day reservation? I know what to do and where to go from the city website, but I'm just looking for some information from anyone who has experience with the process. thanks, Amy
