About Us
The
Dayton’s Bluff
District 4 Community Council is a neighborhood organization designed to
encourage participation in and awareness of the Dayton’s Bluff
neighborhood. It is
one of the 19 councils
within the Saint
Paul District Council System.
The Council advocates for people living in the
community, provides an avenue to make government aware of citizens’
concerns, and advises government concerning neighborhood issues. The
Council serves to educate the public, yet depends upon an engaged
public to define what is important to the community. The meetings are
open to the public so community members may voice their opinions.
Meetings are usually held on the second and the third Monday each month, and
begin at 7 pm. Check the community calendar to confirm dates.
The Council is overseen by a
Board composed of people from the
neighborhood. All adults who reside, own property or own a
business in Dayton's Bluff are eligible to serve. Upon election,
a member serves a two-year term on the Council. Elections are
held in October, so people with a desire to serve the community should
contact the Council office for information regarding the upcoming
elections. The Council also has several subcommittees
addressing
ongoing programs or issues.
Some of the main goals of the Council are to achieve and to maintain proper housing and education,
attractive and plentiful public green space such as neighborhood parks
and gardens, a healthy and diverse business community, and good
recreational and artistic opportunities for neighborhood residents.
The Council is located at 798 East
Seventh Street. Telephone 651-772-2075.
