The proposed boundaries follow the recently adopted Area 41 redistricting guidelines.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The only information in the Area 41 past actions book that explains Lancaster County district boundaries are voting items from 1989 (split district 3 into two districts) and 2008 (form a new district around Seward). There are a few maps that have been drawn up for Lancaster County, but on these maps there are large portions of boundaries that do not follow easily identified landmarks such as streets or county lines. The current boundaries make it difficult for incoming DCMs to know exactly who to serve, especially when group locations change frequently.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The proposed boundaries were developed as a joint effort among Lancaster County districts. The boundaries were developed so that the overall distribution of groups within districts would not change significantly, so that DCMs would still have a reasonable number of groups to visit, as the AA Service Manual suggests. The new boundaries were also developed so minimal groups would have an actual change in district.<\/p>\n<p>If this item is voted on and approved by Area 41, a digital and hard copy map of the new Lancaster County boundaries will be submitted to Area 41, Lincoln Intergroup committee and Central office.<\/p>\n<p>Mike ~ attending District meetings and groups seeking financial and physical support for a proposed Grapevine workshop.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Discussing that grapevine is ever changing with intentions of delivering subscriptions over other month or going all digital.<\/li>\n<li>Mike has Speakers already set up, Charlie S, Ron A. and Ken B for this workshop. &nbsp;Tentative date is May 12, 2012 11:00 am to 4:00 pm at the Center for people in need (Coffee and Tea provided).<\/li>\n<li>Needs are funding, dishwashers, setup and clean up.<\/li>\n<li>Raffle for items such as 1 year of grape vine.
