West Avenue Neighborhood Association (WAvNA)

Preserve ~ Enhance ~ Unify

The West Avenue Neighborhood Association (WAvNA) is comprised of representatives of condominiums, businesses, and individuals residing in the West Avenue corridor. WAvNA holds monthly meetings where elected representatives, public officials and community leaders address issues of interest.

The goal of the Association is to: improve pedestrian & bike safety, reduce litter & crime, and encourage responsible development.  WAvNA continues to facilitate an open communication with city hall to address our concerns, especially quality-of-life issues.
