The
Plan for a Citywide System of Neighborhood Councils
The Plan for a Citywide System of Neighborhood Councils (Plan) was approved on May 30, 2001 by the City Council through an ordinance.
The Department of Neighborhood Empowerment (DONE) and the Board
of Neighborhood Commissioners reviewed years of extensive study regarding
neighborhood councils, and received months of public comment before presenting
a proposed plan to the Mayor and City Council in December, 2000. For six months, City
Council committees received public comment on the proposed plan, and
made revisions before submitting it to the Mayor for final approval in May, 2001. The Plan establishes a flexible framework
through which people in neighborhoods may be empowered to create Neighborhood
Councils to serve their needs. The Plan also sets minimum standards to ensure that Neighborhood Councils represent
all stakeholders in the community, conduct fair and open meetings, and
are financially accountable.
