“I never realized what a need there was for a neighborhood association until it became difficult for me to maintain my yard in the last several years.
BNA's annual neighborhood volunteers came and not only raked, trimmed bushes and cut grass in both the back and front, but they also helped with a few chores in the house as well.
BNA's genuine concern about the neighborhood and residents is awesome."

Initiative to Reduce
“I had a nuisance issue with my next door neighbor and tried to resolve it by talking to them. After several attempts asking them to stop without any change, I contacted the BNA to help.
The association very quickly responded to my complaint and resolved it in a manner that didn't cause any negative feelings between me and my neighbor.
If it wasn't for BNA's assistance I don't know what I would have done to fix the issue."
