Neighborhood Associations

Neighborhood associations are volunteer organizations made up of residents of a particular geographical area.  They are a useful tool for solving problems and improving the quality of life on the neighborhood level.

Common issues for neighborhood associations include:

• Historic Preservation,
• Zoning Changes
• Code Violations
• Beautification
• Youth Activities,
• Housing
• Utilities
• Resolution of problems between neighbors

Activities include:

• Social Events
• Neighborhood Watch
• Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT)
• Summer Stroll
• Celebrate Safe Communities Month
• Adopt-a-Street

Neighborhood associations are also eligible for the City’s Select Neighborhood Action Program (SNAP), a grant program that provides funding to neighborhood groups for neighborhood projects.
