New Neighborhood Association Forming?

Light Rail, the future of Columbia School, impending development--these changes and more have prompted a call for the formation of a new neighborhood association.

But first, a moment of silence for the dearly-departed Columbia City Revitalization Committee, 1995-2003(?). Much of the credit for Columbia City's recent boom times goes to the neighbors who worked together in this great grass-roots organization. A good summary of the CCRC and its legacy--including the Farmer's Market and Beatwalk--is here.

A meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, August 28, from 6 to 7 pm at the CC branch library. Neighbors, families, and friends in Columbia City are invited to attend.

Be informed, get involved, make a difference!
