Our residents have great working relationships and partnerships with community leaders and residents throughout the district.

"District 1 has more than 65 established block clubs and community associations and is a collection of great people, vibrant neighborhoods and tremendous opportunity.  While we certainly have challenges to overcome, we are working to together to improve the quality of life for all. With so many of our neighbors engaged and informed, it’s no wonder that D1 is the place where so many residents call HOME."
