New eNtraNce SigN iNStalled
The new entrance sign at 151st & wCenter Road has been installed. we elevated the sign to make it more visible from 151st street and wCenter Road. Bresette Masonry did a great job and was a pleasure to work with.
The next step is to landscape the area around the new sign. we need to raise the grade of the area around the sign to hide the concrete block foundation or build a retaining wall of landscape blocks around the sign. Then fill in the space between the wall and the sign with dirt and plant shrubs and or flowers around the sign. The retaining wall would also protect the sign from errant traffic. I will be meeting with landscape design people to develop a landscape plan.

Car TipsFrom Charlie Graham Body and Service
You might think of your seats as being pretty simple. After all, you just sit in them, and drive around. But seats get more and more complex every year.
In the old days, seats were pretty simple. To move them forward or backwards, you pulled up on a lever to release the track, and manually slide yourself forward or backwards.
The next step forward were power seats. Power comes into bottom of the seat, and there are a number of electric motors underneath that can push the seat forward or backwards, up and down, or tilt the backrest. Many have memory buttons as well, so two different drivers can have preset seat adjustments. Just jump in, press your number, and the seat automatically resets itself to your preferred settings.
Heated seats are becoming more common, and they work by electricity running through a heating element that’s just below the seat cover. It’s basically the same as a heating pad that you use at home, but you don’t have to plug it in! Automakers are even working with cooling systems in seats for hot weather driving. Won’t it be nice when all of the different passengers in the same vehicle can control their own temperature by simply adjusting their seat controls?
You see more air bags on seats these days, and they are designed to protect passengers in a side impact collision. You never want to have anything over the top of these airbags, such as a strap going around the seat, because that will interfere with the air bag deploying in the event of a crash.
Head rests need to be adjusted so that they are just right. If they are too low, they can actually make things worse in a rear end collision, as your head would pivot over the top of the headrest. Slide it up or down to get it at just the right height. In some high end vehicles, the seat back and headrest automatically move forward to protect the driver in a rear end collision. This safety feature keeps the head and upper body more stable and supported, which greatly reduces the risk of serious injury.
You spend a lot of time in the seat of your vehicle, and obviously you want to be as comfortable as possible when you are driving. More luxurious vehicles will have seats with more padding, and sportier cars will have firmer seats that are a little less comfortable. Make sure that you check out the seat cushions before you buy your next vehicle, and your time spent commuting will be a lot more enjoyable.

Citizen’s Patrol Update—A Message From The Omaha Police Department
There seems to be an increase in stolen vehicles in our precinct. Honda’s, SUV’s, and pick-ups seem to be popular. You may have read the recent article in the World Herald that the value of used vehicles has increased lately so that may explain the problem. Tell all of your neighbors to be aware of the problem and to take appropriate action to avoid being a victim. Another issue to be aware of is open garage doors and these two problems can go hand in hand. However, an open garage door can be more volatile since now the criminal is in the house so tell your neighbors to keep their garage door shut even when they are home or just in the back yard; bad things can happen in just a few minutes. Also if you see the following vehicle would you please call 911 and report it, it was involved in an incident in our precinct and was last seen in the 144th & Center Area. Locating the vehicle would be helpful. It’s a white 1999 Jeep 4-door, NE License Plate: RMR 977 and it has a broken window. Take no action other than calling 911. I hope many of you have made plans for your yearly Get-Together on National Night Out, August 2nd, but you can do it anytime. - Thank you, Jim Schulte, OPD, South West Precinct
REMINDER: DO NOT place signs in the entrance islands for various events. This destroys the landscaping material on the islands allowing weeds to grow. This also increases the maintenance necessary to
keep the islands attractive. Your cooperation is appreciated.

The HOHA by-laws states, any resident moving into Harvey Oaks during the period January 1-August 20, 2011, can come to the Family Picnic at no charge, even if they aren’t members of HOHA. This is part of the ―Welcome to the Neighborhood‖‖ efforts. Individuals that want to attend the picnic and are past the grace period will be charged $5.00 per person to attend the picnic. Membership in HOHA has increased by 43 households from last year.
Nominating Report-Jim Mooney presented a newsletter proposal developed by the Nominating committee. There hasn’t been a volunteer come forward to replace Tori Wallitsch as newsletter editor. Because of this fact, Jim proposed some other alternatives HOHA could explore. Also included in the proposal was the cost saving suggestion to research sending the newsletter electronically to all HOHA members starting in 2012. Currently, 45% of the e-mail addresses of HOHA members have been collected. Since the 2012 Membership drive will be ―kicked off‖ at the Family Picnic, Jim suggested this would be a great time to start securing e-mail addresses.
