Neighborhood Council votes 4‑1 to cancel August picnic
Summary
Neighborhood Council No. 5 voted 4‑1 to vacate the annual August council picnic. Tom Kotynski moved the cancellation citing poor past attendance and vacation schedules; Dylan Lennox cast the lone dissenting vote.
Neighborhood Council No. 5 voted 4‑1 on July 20 to cancel this year’s annual August council picnic.
Tom Kotynski moved that the council vacate the picnic, arguing that past attendance had been poor, food was often left over, many residents are on vacation in August, and the council typically has a meeting scheduled the following day. The motion carried with Dylan Lennox voting against the motion and no second recorded in the minutes.
The vote was an administrative decision by the council and does not allocate or reassign picnic funds at this meeting. Council members who spoke in favor emphasized low participation in past years as the primary reason for cancellation.
