Subject: AACC Checking account proposal,
Compass Bank is offering us (AACC) a new account. It pays us for members opening or changing accounts. They open a Visa Debit card on their account and we receive $20. in our account. They use it to purchase an item and we get .25 cents for each dollar they spend that they have to sign for item, not use their pin #. We could earn like $3,500. per year with this account. It is for Non Profit Organizations like Home Owner Associations, Clubs, Community Groups and the like. I would like to invite a representative from Compass Bank to our next meeting and explain this to our group. We would not be obligated at all. May be a way to be able to do things in our community with money we earn with this account.

July 11, 2008
You were on my list of people to personally call regarding this issue, as I remember you called our office several months ago inquiring about this.
We are holding a community meeting on August 4th at 6:30 pm at the Shindler Road Baptist Church. I JUST placed an order for the mailout post cards about 5 minutes ago as well as requested an ad be placed in the Times Union on Saturday, July 26th as well as the Westside Sun on July 26th and Saturday, August 2nd. Any persons living within 350 feet of the properties in question will receive the post card mail out. I will be mailing those out hopefully by the end of next week.
As of now, these are the following scheduled Public Hearings:
August 12th - City Council in the Council Chambers at 5:00
August 14th - Planning Commission in the Council Chambers at 1:00 (I believe)
August 19th - Land Use and Zoning Committee meeting in the Council Chambers at 5:00
We will have representatives from our Planning Department and the Office of General Counsel to answer any questions and the applicants from Pappas, Metcalf, Jenks and Miller will also be doing a presentation on the rezoning.

Thank you,
Sarah Lane
