Your SGNA Board of Directors is meeting with Gulch residents this coming Tuesday, November 9th at 7:30p.m. in the Club Room of Holladay Park Plaza(NE 16th & Multnomah). If you're a Gulcher, this is a great opportunity to find out what going on in your neighborhood and meet your fellow citizens of Sully's. Tuesday we'll discuss the new Leaf Removal Fees($30-$65 for Sullivan's Gulch) with Larry Stevens from PBOT. Sullivan's Gulch is now a Clean Sweep District. This will require more active co-operation from Gulchers than ever before. Plus the Board of Directors will elect new officers, and as always, SGNA committee reports. This is one you'll not want to miss! Nibbles provided. We hope that you'll stop by and meet the new B of Ds.
P.S. -- Agenda is in the post below.

Portland's Neighborhood Small Grants Program Deadline is nearing!!
There's only one week left to get your applications in;
The Office of Neighborhood Involvement(ONI) and Northeast Coalition of Neighborhoods(NECN) are excited to present the fifth year of the City of Portland’s Neighborhood Small Grants Program. The program invites SGNA to team with community-based organizations in the Gulch to apply for grants that range from $250 to $2500 and are meant to provide Sullivan's Gulch and community non-profits within the Gulch an opportunity to build community, attract new and diverse members and sustain those folks already involved. Grants will be awarded through a competitive process. Applications will be reviewed by a community-based grant making committee made up of neighborhood and community-based organizational representatives.
Typical types of grant winning community-building projects are;
Communications: designing new websites, email lists and forums, newsletter mailing to all households.
Outreach mobilizations: door-to-door canvassing, A-frame signs, to build membership and outreach to neighbors and businesses.
Targeted outreach strategies to build ties with people traditionally not involved including low-income families, people of color, young adults, immigrants, and people with disabilities.
Projects that build relationships between neighborhoods and local organizations such as schools, PTA’s, churches, non-profits, and businesses.
Providing language translation and interpretation, childcare, or other efforts to make neighborhood activities more accessible.
Community-building activities: street tree plantings, neighborhood clean-ups.
Crime prevention activities: National Night Out, foot patrols, and block watches.
Community design/build projects such as planning for playgrounds, intersection repairs, and community gardens.
Neighborhood or culturally specific fairs and/or festivals.
Special one-time events and projects such as publishing community story books, block parties and neighborhood forums.
In the first three years of the Neighborhood Small Grants Program, $553,847 was awarded to 271 Portland neighborhood projects. The average grant award was $1,972. 127 general neighborhood projects were funded along with 102 projects initiated by underrepresented organizations representing people of color, immigrants and refugees, low-income families, youth, people with disabilities, and lesbian, gay, bi, transgendered people.
Proposals must be received by:
