Establish Neighborhoods with Integrity Program

This initiative was for the development of a pilot program to establish the parameters of the Neighborhoods with Integrity Program. This is a multi-departmental effort, working together to establish program direction as well as garner community connections. Neighborhoods with Integrity is building relationships within our neighborhoods in order to address community needs in a proactive and positive manner. Those relationships will develop knowledgeable and confident leaders to serve their associations and better their neighborhood. During the first year, staff has used this time to establish a team, collect input, research common neighborhood issues, build contacts, enhance existing programs, develop new strategies, and evaluate results. Additionally, staff has become involved with the Neighborhoods USA (NUSA) organization in order to foster successful ideas for our neighborhoods.
