Community/Campus Advisory Coalition (CCAC) <br />December 2, 2009 Meeting Minutes <br />Page 3 <br />NORTHEAST NEIGHBORHOOD <br />Bill Stenz reported that the Northeast Neighborhood food pantry received a large <br />donation from the students at Notre Dame and the Jefferson Intermediate School. <br />ROBINSON CENTER <br />Marguerite Taylor reported that the Leaf Raking Program took place on November 4tn_ <br />Over 300 students from Notre Dame, Holy Cross and St. Joseph grade school took part <br />in raking leaves at 65 area homes. Rakes were supplied by the Center for Social <br />Concerns and the City. After a morning of raking, students were treated to pop and <br />pizza at the Center. <br />OFF CAMPUS HOUSING <br />Mark Kramer said that he has given an apartment to two South Bend Police Officers at <br />Notre Dame Apartments. Since one officer works days and the other nights, there is <br />always a squad car parked in the area. Tenants have been given the officers' names <br />and phone numbers in case a problem arises. These officers are also walking in the <br />neighborhood. <br />Mr. Kramer has also given the police an apartment at Lafayette Square and has hired <br />the Gargoyle Security Company which is operated by a South Bend Police Officer. <br />Officers can stop there to complete paperwork. With squad cars frequently in the area, <br />it was noted that there have been no break-ins recently. <br />E-mails have been sent out to Mr. Kramer's tenants notifying them that Gargoyle is <br />offering a service to mark students' valuables. Should items be stolen, it is hoped that <br />this will help prosecute perpetrators and return property to students. He has also sent <br />e-mails with winter break safety and security tips. <br />Notre Dame Security is offering free storage of valuables to students during the winter <br />break. <br />Students living off campus should be encouraged to call the South Bend Police <br />Department to set up vacation checks while the students are on winter break. <br />MISCELLANEOUS <br />Buddy Kirsits said that Paramedics are not making as many alcohol related runs and <br />commended the schools on their efforts to educate students. <br />
