Today there was a post on NextDoor from one of our neighbors about missing mail. Everyone should sign up for informed delivery through the post office. It is a free service through USPS. They will scan every piece of mail and send you an email to let you know what is being delivered that day. This will help you to report when your mail has been tampered. You need to report any tampering of your mail to the police.

2. Harvest Moon Road and NW 78th Terrace, at the intersection

I also followed up on the repairs for the street lights on Harvest Moon and the ticket is still open and they are working the issue. I will keep following up on it.

Spring is in the air and time for planting trees and flowers!

Celebrate Arbor Week by picking up a free seedling to plant at home and watching a tree planting Saturday at Wiley Post Park.

Girl Scouts from local troops will be handing out about 750 free seedlings to anyone who stops by the park, 2021 S Robinson Ave., from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, March 31. The Student Conservation Association and Parks & Recreation Department staff will also be planting five trees, each one 8 to 14 feet tall.

“It’s a great chance to get a tree for your home that’s well-suited to our climate in central Oklahoma,” said Neal Bilger, a unit operations supervisor with the Parks Department. “We’re also excited to plant new trees in the park, which will benefit visitors for generations.”

You don’t even have to get out of your car to get a free seedling – the Girl Scouts will provide curbside service.

The available seedlings are redbuds, October glory maples and several species of oak (red, sawtooth, white, scarlet, cherrybark, Mexican white, English and nuttall).

If any trees remain after the event, the Girl Scouts will take them to their local council office, 6100 N Robinson Ave., to continue handing them out from 1:30 to 4 p.m. Saturday.

Any remaining trees will be given away at the Girl Scouts’ booth at Open Streets OKC, noon to 4 p.m. April 8 on NW 23^rd Street between Western and Robinson avenues.

Oklahoma City celebrates Arbor Week from March 25-31 and is proud to be a Tree City USA. The Tree City USA designation is bestowed by the Arbor Day Foundation to communities who meet several standards for protecting and planting trees, including spending at least $2 per capita on a community forestry program and having a tree care ordinance.

You can see all of the trees in Oklahoma City’s parks in our tree inventory at okc.gov/parks. It shows each of the 19,632 trees in the City’s 134 parks, representing 185 species of trees. They have a collective estimated replacement value of $42.1 million.

Did you meet a neighbor today?

In order to get street topper signs, we need to design our toppers. I had made an attempt to come up with a few designs. Let me know what you think.

Here is a sample of what a Sign Topper looks like.

Vote for A, B, C or D

A. 

B.

C.

D.

The signs will be 30″ x 9″. Once we have a few designs, we can get OCI to provide a quote. There is a cost per sign and then the City will install them for an application fee of $50 and $10 a sign. We just need to know how much the signs will cost. We will need approximately 24 signs to be able to have them all through the neighborhood.

Please cast your vote by clicking on the website link  Harvest Hills South Neighborhood Association and put in the comments section at the bottom of this post on the website, which one you like the best (A, B, C or D) or if you have a different idea. We are always open to new ideas, so lets see your creativity! I would like to have the final tally of votes on Monday, so I can send off the ideas to get the quotes by next week, so I can share them with you.

This is for OUR neighborhood, so lets all participate!

Thank you for your interest in Harvest Hills South Neighborhood Association.
