Mr. Enderle introduced members of the City Commission and City Staff and welcomed all in attendance.

Chief Wayne Willcox and Health Department Director Amy Welker reviewed information in regards to the Neighborhood Improvement Team efforts within the City of Piqua. As a result of this presentation the following concerns and questions were mentioned:

1. 652 S. Wayne Street: High weeds on side of house and trash
2. 1497 Nicklin: Parking problem. When vehicles park on both sides of street, traffic must jog left of center. Could more of the curb be painted yellow?
3. 1408 Nicklin: Resident, Bob Fulker, advises that his neighbor's tree overhangs his house and is close to electric lines. We will ask Electric Distribution to look at situation.
