Introduction
ZoningAs the registered RCO for our territory, we hold public zoning meetings allowing our residents to interact with and provide input to property owners and developers in connection with the zoning process. GovernmentCCRA serves as an important link between the residents and local, state, and federal government, advocating for good schools, clean streets, and neighborhood safety. We offer testimony on bills before City Council, and organize public forums with elected officials and representatives from government agencies. Sidewalk CleaningCCRA raises funds to pay the Center City District to clean trash and debris from our sidewalks. EducationCCRA provides assistance to young families seeking to negotiate their way through the wide variety of the educational opportunities that are available. We hold programs such as school fairs (showcasing our 21 neighborhood schools); “School Daze,” a panel discussion on choosing the right elementary school for your child; and “Town Hall” meetings with Philadelphia School District Superintendent Dr. William Hite. CommunicationCCRA provides timely information about community events through our weekly e-newsletters and quarterly magazines sent to all of our members.
