The City of Sheboygan, in partnership with Sheboygan Neighborhood Pride, Sheboygan Police Department, and many non-profit agencies are working to establish neighborhood associations across the City.
What is a Neighborhood Association? A neighborhood association is a geographically-based partnership to improve conditions in a neighborhood. It includes homeowners, renters, and landlords, as well as representatives from businesses, faith-based groups, non-profits, and schools. The members of the association should represent the entire community and all of its issues and assets. Members get together to discuss issues and identify solutions to address those concerns. Through their work, members develop the stability, credibility, and political influence necessary to be an effective force in making a stronger neighborhood.
What is the purpose of a Neighborhood Association?
The purpose of neighborhood associations is to bring together residents from a section of the city who share common goals and want to create an opportunity to meet other residents, share concerns, offer solutions and help resolve conflicts, provide volunteers for community projects, and create a greater sense of community. Through voluntary participation and elected board members, neighborhood associations bring residents together and provide a line of communication with local government to give residents a voice in issues that directly affect them and their families.
