Our next neighborhood council takes a break during the summer months.

Our next meeting will be in September unless circumstances require we meet before then. 

Announcements

   

Dumpster Day The City will send out a postcard on Dumpster Day later this summer. In addition, we’ll announce the date for Dumpster Day about two weeks in advance so please check back.  As in years past, we will need help guiding traffic. Please consider donating an hour or two by contacting us at eastrichmondnc@gmail.com

What We Do

The purpose of the East Richmond Neighborhood Council is to provide a forum for neighborhood residents to exchange ideas on community issues and neighborhood problems and to serve as a source of information on topics of interest before our city government and public agencies.

  • Our monthly meetings provide  forums in which neighbors can state their concerns to elected officials, agency staff,  and public safety officers.
  • This website posts the agendas and minutes of our meetings. It also offers timely information on events and other news of interest to residents— from announcements of neighborhood clean-ups to advice on forming neighborhood watch groups
  • Business owners who want to locate to East Richmond come before the neighborhood council to outline their plans and answer questions from our residents. The council can then make a recommendation to the Planning Department to permit, permit with conditions, or deny the development.
  • Similarly, if a homeowner’s remodeling plans may have impacts on neighbors, the Planning Department may ask the homeowner to present the plan to the neighborhood council, which then makes its recommendation.
  • Officers of the Neighborhood Council attend monthly meetings of the Richmond Neighborhood Coordinating Council, a citywide organization of neighborhood councils.

There are no membership fees. All residents are encouraged to attend the monthly meetings and join those working to improve the place where we live.
