DEFINITION FROM THE CITY OF GREEN BAY'S WEBSITE

Build community, make a difference, improve where you live, connect with City government, and know your neighbors through a Neighborhood Association.

What is a Neighborhood Association?

A neighborhood association is, quite simply, neighbors living within a designated area of the City who are concerned about issues affecting their neighborhood and, who have decided to work together to protect and ensure a better social, economic, and business climate in their neighborhood.

Neighborhood associations act as a “voice” for the neighborhood residents, a somewhat official link to local government and the larger community. Many neighborhoods find that by banding together and forming a neighborhood association, they are better able to meet the collective needs of the neighborhood.

Neighborhood associations take on may different “looks” and engage in different types of activities, based upon their individual neighborhood’s needs and interests. Following are samples of projects which might be undertaken by an association.

· Produce a neighborhood newsletter

· Organize block parties and picnics

· Clean up a neighborhood park

· Conduct traffic studies

· Educate residents about zoning issues and new developments that might impact the area

· Organize recreation activities

· Represent neighborhood interest to government and the news media

· Form a committee to address problem properties in the neighborhood

Want to start a Neighborhood Association? contact the City of Green Bay Neighborhood Division Cheryl Renier-Wigg by email or call 448-3412
