Neighborhood Networking Session





Please join the Office of the Mayor, Chattanooga City Council and the Department of Neighborhood Services and Community Development at a "Neighborhood Networking" sessions Monday, April 18.  Invited guests are presidents and vice presidents of all neighborhood associations in the City.  This will be an opportunity for leaders who have been chosen by their neighbors to represent them to have a conversation with city officials and other neighborhood leaders about problems affecting the communities where you live, work and play.

After the networking session, leaders are invited to join city officials for an update on how the City's budget has an effect on your neighborhood.  Understanding how the City and County spend your tax dollars is important and we want to hear what you think about it.  We want your input. 

Again, the event is April 18th and will begin at 5:00 p.m. at the Chattanooga City Council Building, 1000 Lindsay Street.  Refreshments will be served. 

Neighborhood association presidents and vice presidents can expect to receive a call from the Department of Neighborhood Services and Community Development Neighborhood Relations Specialists to confirm attendance.  For more information you may contact Richard J. Beeland, Media Relations Director, Office of the Mayor at 425-7800.  We look forward to seeing you on April 18th.

Crime alert: Southside Cowart Google Group

Tony Brown was broken into last night & he confronted the thieves with his gun. Fortunately, nothing happened & they ran. I was just home for lunch & and I saw three police cars in the neighborhood. I saw one walking from a house at 18th & Williams, so I stopped to speak with him. There was another break-in today at around 11:30a at that house. He was in the midst of the investigation, but gave me his contact information for future use. Can you please post this information on the Google group?  He stated that we can call his personal cell (693.3264) anytime between 7a-3p that he is patrolling our area. And after 3p to call the non-emergency city dispatch (698.2525). It's Officer B. Smith, badge # 996.

He stated that he patrols our neighborhood & has for some years. He has noticed the increase in crime, but he keeps hearing of stories where people are noticing suspicious activities, but not calling in time or at all. Today was another example of this. Can you please help spread the word?

Cheers!
