Junk Cars Program

Some people have been calling lately asking about the junk cars program.

There was an article in the Marianas Variety today - Zoning Office: Junk vehicles to be removed this month

It gives an update on the CNMI Zoning office's progress. It is our understanding that the Saipan Mayor's office is also getting involved.

Please contact Therese Ogumoro at the CNMI Zoning office for more info: tee.ogumoro@gmail.com or call (670) 234-9661

Can you help?

Beautify CNMI! would like to enhance its web presence.

To do so, we would like to continue to have the option of capitalizing on Google's various free public services, like we do now with the use of the Beautify CNMI blogspot. We would like to have a distinct email address, a public calendar and try on a different home page.

Currently we are unable to do so, because someone has already registered beautifycnmi@gmail.com.

Can you help us? If you are registered for this email address, we would really appreciate the opportunity to acquire the use for this unique and specific address so that we may proceed with our vision of increasing our web presence.

If you have information that will help, please email to laurie.peterka@gmail.com.

Thank you kindly for your replies!

Graffiti Subcommittee meets at Minachom Atdoa in Susupe

A few Beautify CNMI-ers got together to discuss 2010 graffiti subcommittee projects!



Graffiti Busters - this is a joint project between Neighborhood Watch, Power99, TenchTech and the Saipan Mayor's Office. There will be a number of fun components with this project! It will be aimed at restoring pride at the village level. To learn how you can get involved, please contact Tina Palacios at tinasmgsaipan@yahoo.com or Eric Atalig at ebatalig@gmail.com.



Beautify CNMI! Clubs in Schools - this is a project that will start first with creating graffiti awareness and then hopefully evolve into a full range of projects. If you are interested in being involved with this project, please contact Penny Hofschneider at phofschneider@gmail.com or Cinta Kaipat at cintamkaipat@gmail.com. This project needs help putting together its program structure (i.e. school principals asked for some implementation guidelines).



Lighthouse Mural Project - this project is being lead by Rebecca Yost of Whispering Palms School. Becca is currently looking for assistance with clearing weeds, jungle over-growth and debris. For more info or to help her with this project, please email her at beccayost@gmail.com.

If you have other questions or graffiti related projects that you would like assistance with, please contact Tyler Yoshimoto at tyler_yosh@hotmail.com.

For general inquiries about Beautify CNMI! please contact Cinta Kaipat at cintamkaipat@gmail.com or Laurie Peterka at laurie.peterka@gmail.com.
