Frustration permeated the room at two recent Olympic Park Neighborhood Council (OPNC) meetings. OPNC President Peter Schulberg was eager to conduct business including the swearing in of new members, at a July 12 emergency meeting, the group’s second attempt in a two-month period. However, the board had its hands tied because the meeting still could not  reach a quorum –half the members plus one. Of 18 OPNC board seats, at least 10 members must be present.

Dear Stakeholders, Board Members, Neighbors and Friends,

As of July 15th, I will be passing the baton of the presidency to my successors, MaryAnn Yurkonis and Claudia Bayard.  It’s hard to believe how quickly 4 years have flown by.  In January of 2006, 18 of us huddled together and took our oath as bright-eyed board members.  We rolled up our sleeves and embarked on a journey to better the organization of which we were eager to be a part.  There was a lot of work to do.  There were challenges and triumphs along the way and now we are a better organization for it.  As I look back on the distance we have traveled, I can honestly say we have a lot to be proud of. Here's an idea of what we have achieved since 2006.
