MISSION STATEMENT
In May of 1999, the Eugene City Council adopted the following mission statement for Neighborhood Associations:
Our mission is to build community at the neighborhood level and improve the livability of the City's neighborhoods. Neighborhood Associations do this by:
| • Sponsoring neighborhood improvement projects and social events; • Providing a forum to identify, discuss, and resolve neighborhood issues • Establishing a two-way communication between neighborhoods and the City, and between neighborhoods and other external agencies; • Educating neighbors on issues, public process, City services, and elections, and; • Identifying and Advocating the Neighborhood Association's position on issues such as land use, transportation, public safety, and social services. |
Our neighbors are those who live, work, or own property within our boundaries.
