NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS   Winter/Spring 2015
                                                                                                                                    
We live in one of the nicest remaining residential
neighborhoods in  the City of Albany because  we have
had an active neighborhood association
with strong leadership,  for the past 29 years
and your support.

Spring is a time of renewal. A time to renew your
involvement in your neighborhood association.  
YOUR ASSOCIATION WORKS WHEN YOU DO!

Long time homeowners, and new residents, have a stake
 in making sure our neighborhood remains a good place
 to live. There are plenty of issues .
