College Park Neighborhood Association

The College Park Neighborhood Association will hold its final meeting of this year next Monday, December 9th at 6:30 PM at the First Congregational Church, 1415 North K Street.

This will be a brief but very important meeting and everyone is encouraged to attend. We will be accepting nominations for officers and directors for 2014. The election of officers and directors will be held at a special meeting in January.

Of special importance is a final review of the College Park Neighborhood Wide - Neighborhood Watch proposal. We are applying for a grant through the Palm Beach County Office of Community Revitalization REAP program to fully fund this effort and purchase enough Neighborhood Watch signs for the whole neighborhood. We have the support of the PBSO and a commitment from the City to install the signs in the City's rights of way. An important aspect of this proposal is a door to door campaign in College Park to inform our neighbors on the importance of reporting suspicious activity to the non-emergency PBSO hotline and the benefit to all of us when we watch out for each other.

The deadline to submit the grant is Wednesday, December 11th, so this will be the final opportunity for neighbors' input and suggestions before the grant is submitted.

Thank You and hope to see you all on Monday evening. Light refreshments will be served. Everyone is welcome.
