Thank you to everyone who joined us for the holiday potluck. What a wonderful evening with our neighbors!
Please join us Monday, December 5, at 6:30, for an OHNA potluck dinner at St. Brigid to meet new neighbors and celebrate with old friends. Enter through the door on the parking lot side and then down the stairs.
On behalf of the Original Highlands Neighborhood Association (OHNA), and our President Ralph Melbourne, we would like to provide clarification regarding the proposed placement of speed bumps. Rufer Ave passed its traffic study and was approved for speed bumps, pending balloting. Hepburn and Highland Avenues failed their studies and were not approved to move forward to balloting. The city also informed that the Hepburn and Highland studies could not be rerun for at least another year. Not satisfied with the results and unwilling to wait another year to re-submit, our President collaborated with Metro Public Works and our Councilwoman Cassie Chambers to submit a new request for speed humps, with data from a study that was recently conducted by Metro Public Works.

Fall 2021 Tree Planting
Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped plant trees this past weekend. The Original Highlands Neighborhood Association has added 67 trees this year to make the neighborhood healthier and more beautiful. Added to the 215 trees our committee has planted in the past few years, we now have a total of 282 trees that would not have been along our sidewalks and in our yards without the hours of dedication of our tree committee volunteers.
