Sunshine and Jefferson Zoning Update
This is a SHNA News Special with a link to detailed information about a planned 7Brew Coffee shop to be constructed at Jefferson Avenue and Sunshine Street.
In the primary attachment there are a lot of links and details for those that want to dive in and learn about the way things happen in zoning cases. For the cliff notes go to this site:
Scroll down to the October 6 Planning and Zoning Commission hearing and start at 1:53:30 and listen to the summary statements from the Commission members before they voted.
In the staff comments it was noted the City Council Public Hearing is planned for November 14th at 630 pm - show up to comment or write your councilman directly or email: citycouncil@springfieldmo.gov.
Please write today.
FYI - The developer has positioned dumpsters to start demolition of the houses which will likely happen anyway regardless of the 7Brew project.
PS - Also here is a link to a comprehensive article on Galloway Village.

Question 1 - Galloway Village
Springfield voters will see Question 1 on their ballots when they go to vote on November 8. You are encouraged to become familiar with this issue that pits a neighborhood against a developer and the City Council. The outcome will impact the entire city. Voting NO will help assure that all neighborhoods in the city will have a voice about future development. One source of information is the Galloway Village Neighborhood Association website at www.gallowayvillage.org.

Local Neighbor Recognized for Outstanding Act of Neighboring
The University of Missouri Extension Greene County Extension Council announced ten Greene County residents chosen for special recognition as neighbors.
Missourians from all walks of life celebrated the first Missouri Good Neighbor Week (Sept 28 – Oct. 4) by doing and reporting neighboring acts and nominating others as the most engaged neighbors in their respective counties.
MU Extension county councils statewide are doing county-level recognition. In Greene County, the local extension office will send each local award winner a check and award certificate.
The goal for the week had been to document 10,000 acts of neighboring. But instead, Missourians reported 12,594 acts of neighboring during Missouri Good Neighbor Week. Greene County had the most submissions, accounting for nearly 4,000 of the acts of neighboring.
A member of the Seminole Holland neighborhood is being recognized for an Outstanding Act of Neighboring. Penny Gordon-Chumbley organized an outdoor potluck/campfire for residents of her block of Kings Ave in Springfield on Oct. 1. The get-together had twenty-three in attendance and keeps the momentum going for other activities on this street.
Congratulations Penny!
Penny is an engaged neighbor and a member of the Seminole Holland Neighborhood Association.
