Oct 19th UHNC Board Meeting minutes:


  • Present: Liz, Jenny, Steve, Sherry, Terry, Kim, Arjay, JM



  • Community Clean-up day discussed with interest to focus on the North end of the Neighborhood, Iliff to Evans. Decision was made to wait until after the holidays so a date in early 2022, likely February, will be decided upon and announced at the next meeting.

    • It was introduced that maybe the RNO produce business cards that can be handed out both at the cleanup day and throughout the neighborhood while on walks and when running into new neighbors etc. A vote was taken on the budget for the cards and $30 was agreed upon with no opposition.


Voting item introduced:

  • Should the UHNC add RNO support to the newly formed Unhoused Action Coalition to push Denver to act faster on addressing solutions to getting Denver’s unhoused off the streets and into safer locations? See statement

    • It was decided that the attendees would look further into this topic and share the statement of the UAC with neighbors so more voices could be present or represented at our next meeting to vote on whether UHNC would support the UAC and promote it to neighboring RNOs. There was concern brought up that the goal of the UAC was to support the Group Living Amendment, but there is no relation between the two.
