The Community Vision:
The River Road and Santa Clara Neighborhoods exude a strong sense of place. They are welcoming and inclusive neighborhoods for people of all backgrounds. River Road and Santa Clara celebrate and nurture community unity and diverse cultures and honor the rich history of farming in the neighborhoods. The community recognizes the value of natural assets, such as the River and thriving shared spaces, such as parks, schools, and local businesses. Our neighborhoods are safe, resilient, and engaged, with strong social networks and reliable public services.
The Neighborhood Plan policies (statements adopted to provide a consistent course of action and move the community toward attainment of its goals) for Community focus on:
- Supporting and advocating for neighborhood services and opportunities, such as:
- affordable housing
- public art
- library and cultural services
- emergency preparedness
Implementation of the vision for Community will rely on:
- building community support and participation
- collaborating with the City, County, and other local service providers
- supporting current work being done by the River Road Community Organization (RRCO) and the Santa Clara Community Organization (SCCO) and their related committees
