Announcement - New private social network for our Old Town neighborhood
Dear Old Town Clayton Neighborhood Association,
Our neighborhood has a new and impressive online communication tool called 'Nextdoor' which launched this week for Old Town. I wish to thank Old Town resident Lauren Herring for informing me about this free and exciting concept that will vastly improve our neighborhood communications. This is not Facebook....it's better because it is designed to be private.
Learn all about it and sign up at https://nextdoor.com/ . Some of you have already received an invitation to join by email or postcard. I highly recommend that all Old Town residents consider joining. Share this information with your neighbors. You are easily able to opt in on how you want to be alerted to news, etc. once you join. There's even a free Nextdoor app to download for smart phones.
It takes just a few minutes to sign up. I met with a 'Nextdoor' rep today and asked that our neighborhood's boundaries be made accurate...so you may need to wait and try again in a few days if your address is not immediately recognized as an Old Town Clayton address.
Let's stay in touch with 'Nextdoor'!
Regards,
Cheryl Verde
President, Old Town Clayton Neighborhood Association

Statement from Ward III Aldermen regarding Maryland School Property
We have been contacted recently by several residents about
the Clayton School District’s potential sale of the Maryland School property to
a developer. The property has been on the market for some time, but we do
not have any information about a pending sale. Please note that the City’s
approval is not required for the sale of this property by the Clayton School
District.
The property is zoned single-family residential. To
date, nobody has requested a zoning change. A zoning change would require
a public hearing before the Plan Commission and the approval of the Board of
Aldermen, which would involve another public hearing. All meeting agendas
for the Plan Commission and the Board of Aldermen are posted on the City’s
website in advance, and you can also register on the website to automatically
receive emails containing the agendas when they are posted. In addition,
notice of the Plan Commission hearing would be mailed at least 10 days in
advance to the last known address of all owners of property located within 200
feet of the boundaries of the property for which a rezoning is being
considered.
We appreciate and welcome your input, and also encourage you
to participate in any future meetings and/or public hearings involving the
property.
