West 7th/Fort Road Federation elects officers, area coordinators

At their annual meeting on April 29, the West 7th/Fort Road Federation elected two officers and five area coordinators to represent the neighborhood for two years.

Board officer positions up for election this year were the First Vice President and Treasurer. Maggie Rock was reelected to her position of First Vice President that she has held for the previous term. Andrew Greenlee is also returning to his role as Treasurer of the Board.

Hayden Kilkenny and Moz Rude were elected to represent Area 2. Kilkenny has been serving an interim appointment to the Board, while Rude is a renter representative of the area.

In area 3, all three incumbent Board members, Tanya Fabryanske Beck, Seth Smiglewski and J.B. Shank carried their reelection bids.

Area 1 of the neighborhood, the area bordered by the northside of St Clair Ave., I-35E, Irvine Ave., Kellogg Blvd., Eagle St. and the Mississippi River, is still in need of two representatives on the Board.

In addition to electing new Board representatives, the neighborhood also selected this year’s winner of their annual Merchandise Contest. Alxndr jones was this year’s winner and merchandise with the design will be available for purchase after May 5 through Weird Ink Society.
