The Roosevelt Park Neighborhood Association will again be participating in the National Night Out celebration on October 6, and can use your help. As you know, we do not collect any type of membership dues and typically serve what members volunteer to donate.
We plan to serve hot dogs on buns with hot dog sauce; the franks will be provided by Councilwoman Ramos.
We also plan to serve watermelon, chips and punch and either a pinata or candy bags for the young ones; we hope to also have gift cards for adults and items for kids as door prizes.
If you can and would like to donate one of the above items for the celebration, be certain that we would certainly appreciate it! ... a bag of chips, a can of hot dog sauce, a bag of candy....a bottle of mustard, etc. Please let me know if you can give us a helping hand. A most sincere Thank you! |

Rezoning near Roosevelt Park
A neighbor inquired Micah Diaz of the Planning & Development Services Department regarding the appearance of yellow "Rezoning" signs around Roosevelt Park. This is Ms. Diaz's response.
The Roosevelt Avenue corridor (from just north of Mission Road to Loop
410 in the south) is the subject of two City-initiated zoning cases,
Z2009134 and Z2009135.
Many of the properties along this section of Roosevelt have intense
commercial and industrial zoning. The goal of the rezoning effort is to
apply zoning districts to this corridor that continue to allow
commercial development, but to do so in a more controlled manner. This
is zoning case Z2009134.
Additionally, the City is applying an overlay zoning district to the
Roosevelt corridor, called "MC-1" Metropolitan Corridor Overlay
District-1. This overlay district will implement some design standards
for new construction (including materials, landscaping, signage,
screening, and lighting guidelines). This is zoning case Z2009135.

Roosevelt Avenue Arsonist
KENS Channel 5 reports that the San Antonio Fire Department has run into a dead end investigating the arsonist believed responsible for over two dozen fires, burning down homes and businesses, mostly along or near Roosevelt Avenue.
http://www.kens5.com/news/stories/KENS20090716-Arson-Hunt-Needs-Help.4736eeb0.htm
Fire department investigators say they simply need more clues from the public to catch the person responsible. Their only person of interest is a Hispanic male ranging in height from 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-7. The person is believed to have burns to his left arm and left side of his neck.
If you have any clues in the fires, call Crime Stoppers at 224-STOP. There's a reward of up to $5,000.
