NEIGHBORHOOD ADVISORY COUNCIL

APPLICATION

Program Description

The Neighborhood Advisory Council Initiative is a comprehensive community development initiative designed to empower residents and neighborhoods to strengthen communities. The underlying premise of the Neighborhood Advisory Council Initiative is that the residents and business community in a neighborhood are most ideally suited to identify and solve issues in those communities. Each Neighborhood Advisory Council is provided the opportunity to comment and develop solutions on neighborhood, traffic, safety, zoning, capital improvements, development review requests, Board of Appeals cases, and other key issues.

The Neighborhood Advisory Council Initiative was developed by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the City of Frederick’s 58th Administration on September 5, 2002 in response to community input provided during the Winter 2002 Series of Community Forums.
