1	10	10	10	Bryn Mawr Neighborhood Association (BMNA) has been effective in meeting the goals of its Neighborhood Revitalization Program Action Plan:
4	10	10		I don't know enough about  it.  But I understand the intention is "make things better".  Thank you.
224	10	10		How would I know?   I would like to know.
1	10a	10.1	10a	Maintain and enhance the quality and diversity of the housing stock to retain and attract neighbors to Bryn Mawr
48	10a	10.1		It's really white here
213	10a	10.1		Housing looks pretty good and remodeling and fixing up is regularly done.  Graph shows 41% of Phase I went to housing
1	10b	10.2	10b	Present Bryn Mawr as a united neighborhood containing seven areas
57	10b	10.2		Area 1 is often not included
107	10b	10.2		Include H2
1	10c	10.3	10c	Provide and maintain a retail center that consists of shops serving Bryn Mawr neighbors with convenience goods and services in an area that is attractive and appealing and economically rewarding to the merchants
25	10c	10.3		Please do something about empty corner spot in Downtown B.M..!!!
55	10c	10.3		Only if traffic (customer / vendors) get redirected off of Queen -- it's like the Indy 500 down Queen!
98	10c	10.3		Economically rewarding?
100	10c	10.3		Can something be done with the retail space on NW corner of Cedar Lk. Rd. & Laurel?
107	10c	10.3		Little market / vacant corner is appalling.  Could be fantastic.
213	10c	10.3		If only Bryn Mawr Pizza would perk up its place to / inviting colors & good lighting--  It looks dingy, uninviting-- and at night eerie-  It should look as good as their food tastes --  And what's the empty space on the corner?
266	10c	10.3		Need a nice store or restaurant in that corner site (empty right now)
292	10c	10.3		Wish we could get something good at the corner of Penn
1	10d	10.4	10d	Develop and enhance the Bassett’s Creek Valley as a major city and neighborhood amenity
1	10e	10.5	10e	Facilitate needed improvements to the Bryn Mawr Meadows
1	10f	10.6	10f	Facilitate needed improvements to the Cedar Lake and Brownie Lake parks area
28	10f	10.6		haven't been to the parks
49	10f	10.6		not sure
70	10f	10.6		I am not aware of any improvements at Brownie Lake (except native plantings)
135	10f	10.6		love them
159	10f	10.6		Need clear lakes & canoe storage for Bryn Mawr only
193	10f	10.6		**
1	10g	10.7	10g	Respond to he concerns for personal and community safety with a plan and program that reinforces neighbors watching out for each other, and with improved lighting around homes and on paths frequented by pedestrians
4	10g	10.7		I like seeing crime reports in the paper & via a flyer--  Thank you.
28	10g	10.7		Need more neighborhood watch encouragement and work.  Traffic still speeds down CLR 40-45 mph
70	10g	10.7		Not aware of any improvements
98	10g	10.7		Crime alerts
107	10g	10.7		At night, circle path at park not safe.
126	10g	10.7		Need more trees & lights
172	10g	10.7		Safe committee
178	10g	10.7		Light pollution is not the answer
308	10g	10.7		?
1	10h	10.8	10h	Establish education as the foundation for our future and define our neighborhood schools, Bryn Mawr Elementary and Anwatin Middle Schools, as the geographical and educational center of Bryn Mawr
98	10h	10.8		(It) didn't "establish education as the foundation…"  Didn't know as a goal.  (Schools) become the community center.
1	10i	10.9	10i	Provide excellent multi-modal transportation access to and from the Bryn Mawr neighborhood, and facilities designed to ensure the safety, livability and vitality of the neighborhood
98	10i	10.9		Hope NAP has goal of bus services
107	10i	10.9		Only good for Downtown.  But you have to transfer if you're not going downtown.  #9 is nice.  LRT would be nice.
159	10i	10.9		Can they re-route yellow bus (school) away from neighborhood?  Smaller bus so they can go on parkway (we need cleaner air)
202	10i	10.9		Bike trails are excellent
207	10i	10.9		Disappointed w/ reduced bus service
213	10i	10.9		Besides bus, auto and taxi!??  But what would "multi-modal" be for this area? Replace most of 394 with light rail and provide small shuttles throughout neighborhoods
1	11	11	11	In terms of their impact on the neighborhood as a whole, the following changes have made a positive impact on Bryn Mawr:
145	11	11		no knowledge (of e-g)
1	11a	11.1	11a	Bryn Mawr Elementary & Anwatin Middle School improvements, particularly Bryn Mawr Elementary School community kitchen and Anwatin M.S. computer lab
77	11a	11.1		Anwatin Middle School = disagree -- impact,  Elementary School = no opinion, community kitchen = ?
1	11b	11.2	11b	Neighborhood signage – copper & aluminum sculptures of house and tree mounted on black signposts at neighborhood  entries
25	11b	11.2		Where is this?
28	11b	11.2		looks good, but  not sure any actual impact!
48	11b	11.2		pretty but hard to read / see
55	11b	11.2		they aren't big enough!
70	11b	11.2		The basic design is pleasing but they do not stand out visually
100	11b	11.2		Not noticeable enough?  Where are they all?
1	11c	11.3	11c	Penn Avenue Gateway and Cedar Lake Parkway Landscaping including the addition of median planters, signage hedge, and trees; and highway clean-ups
100	11c	11.3		Looks wonderful!
101	11c	11.3		Love the hedge!
205	11c	11.3		Hedge is wonderful-- Thank you (to whomever) for maintaining it.
213	11c	11.3		That hedge needs work-- Should not be so squared off--  For better design use of curving lines would be better. Signage looks great, just needs compatibility with the entire hill space -- to relate, as they say.  Harmony.  The entire hill could make a statement
1	11d	11.4	11d	Reduction of buckthorn on neighborhood parkland and residential property ("Buckthorn Busts").
98	11d	11.4		Though not all have participated
1	11e	11.5	11e	Bassett’s Creek Park restorations including repairs to the falls and to the path “blow-out” erosion areas, and wildflower plantings at the creek near Fruen Mill
98	11e	11.5		% (that) use?
159	11e	11.5		Need lights and more work done on paths
1	11f	11.6	11f	Luce Line Trail construction formerly called Bassett’s Creek Trail, which connects Cedar Lake Trail at Bryn Mawr Meadows to Theodore Wirth, Park near Hwy. 55
28	11f	11.6		Haven't seen but good
87	11f	11.6		Not the best alignment
107	11f	11.6		More communication about trails.  Maps.
178	11f	11.6		?
159	11f	11.6		I haven't gone on on the trail. Is it safe? (alone)
1	11g	11.7	11g	Playground renovation at 24th & Drew Avenue in Area 1
21	11g	11.7		5!!
28	11g	11.7		Haven't seen but good
49	11g	11.7		too new.
159	11g	11.7		Haven't seen it yet
276	11g	11.7		We love our new park!
1	11h	11.8	11h	Cedar Lake Parkway bridge design and construction
51	11h	11.8		Yes and no.  It took way to long.  Result is nice!
107	11h	11.8		Good to be done
135	11h	11.8		Wonderful!
145	11h	11.8		(starred)
192	11h	11.8		Sure took a  long time but it is great.
202	11h	11.8		!
263	11h	11.8		Slow progress-- looks great so far
289	11h	11.8		(starred)
308	11h	11.8		Do you really have that much impact on DOT or Park Board or City Council?  NOT
none	11h	11.8		?
1	11i	11.9	11i	Neighborhood directory (phone & address) that BMNA has produced three times thus far; a fourth directory is being organized
28	11i	11.9		wish had very strong support for neighborhood night out etc - so people actually met some of these people!
48	11i	11.9		put it online or on CD on website
70	11i	11.9		I commend the effort to add art [visual history] to the design but it seems like it will be very vandal prone
308	11i	11.9		Waste of $
1	11j	11.91	11j	BMNA.org website, recently redesigned and reopened
95	11j	11.91		do not use
130	11j	11.91		haven't visited website yet
159	11j	11.91		Nice to have if one can use
286	11j	11.91		looks nice
1	11k	11.92	11k	Providing community support through our Bryn Mawr Coordinator (Vida Ditter, and previously Margaret Anderson Kelliher) since 1996
100	11k	11.92		Nice work.
308	11k	11.92		Nice people, well meaning -- but aren't these position only politically advantageous to these individuals and their careers -- REAL DIRECT IMPACT ON CITY COUNCIL???
none	11k	11.92		Communication problem
1	11l	11.93	11l	I-394 Improvements – resurfacing and sound walls added on the north side of I-394 – made possible in part by studies, requests and demands made by BMNA
28	11l	11.93		although would need to see costs vs. benefits to truly assess
70	11l	11.93		Probably the most important issue BMNA has involved in
308	11l	11.93		Not enough at the right time - no impact on original construction - which is when it should have been done.  I.e. limited impact -- DOT did this on its own schedule-
1	11m	11.94	11m	Housing Improvement Fair and counseling provided in 1995
1	11n	11.95	11n	Housing improvement program (needs-test based grant and loan programs offered 1995 through 2000).
130	11n	11.95		I'm new to the neighborhood. I favor grant & loans programs
159	11n	11.95		I for one can use some help-
1	11o	11.96	11o	“Downtown” Bryn Mawr business improvements such as resurfacing parking lots, new canopies, windows, roofing, signage, benches, ornamental railings, newsbox enclosure, trees, flower pots, stone planters, and red-brick stamped concrete
25	11o	11.96		What can be done to get more business into Downtown BW? Empty corner is a constant eyesore!
100	11o	11.96		Looks wonderful!
159	11o	11.96		Well done
205	11o	11.96		Plants should be smaller
308	11o	11.96		Tremendous!  What about street lighting on CLR! So much ped traffic & bad / not ped. Friendly lighting!
311	11o	11.96		!
1	11p	11.97	11p	Bryn Mawr Neighborhood Business Association formation and sponsorship of special events such as the Festival of Garage Sales, Blooming Bryn Mawr Garden Tour and the Saturnalia Winter Festival.
70	11p	11.97		I do not approved of neighborhood sponsorship of the Festival of Garage Sales.
98	11p	11.97		Saturnalia -- too cold!
311	11p	11.97		!
1	12	12	12	Overall, Bryn Mawr Neighborhood revitalization projects have made Bryn Mawr a better place to live.
308	12	12		Yes to "downtown" & entry point but where's the progress in the "hood"??
317	12	12		++
1	13	13	13	In general, Bryn Mawr Neighborhood revitalization funds have been spent wisely.
28	13	13		Think so but not 100% sure
159	13	13		We need the rest of the dirt alleys done--  Hold the area together and not favor one over the other even if people don't demand help like some do. This is Bryn Mawr as a whole great area to live in.
211	13	13		Sometimes items  meetings have happened by the time we get paper
292	13	13		Don't know enough, but I think so

1	14e	14.5	14e	Increase amount/quality of neighborhood special events
50	14e	14.5		Not Saturnalia.  Too noisy.  Does not like Roman Pagan festival

1	14f	14.6	14f	Increase amount/quality of neighborhood association communication
