The Role of Neighborhood Associations in Creating a Livable Community
Presenters: Jeanne Marie Thomas, Peter Guttchen, and Julie Hankins,
founding members of Olympia's Coalition of Neighborhoods
What are the benefits of working through your neighborhood association
to create positive change in your community?
How do you form partnerships with other community groups and public
agencies to achieve your goals?
How can you bring out the best from your neighborhood, as well as
other neighborhoods in our community?
Presenters will lead a facilitated discussion of the benefits of
working through neighborhood associations to solve problems and seize
opportunities to achieve important community goals. They'll share the
lessons they've learned about what works and doesn't work, and
provides some specific examples from the work they've done to advocate
for changes to Olympia's land use codes and to create a more walkable
and activity-friendly community.
