REINVENTING NEIGHBORHOODS: 2010 REGIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD NETWORK CONFERENCE 

Strong neighborhoods are the building blocks of a vital community.  Harrison Township residents are encouraged to get involved in matters related to their neighborhoods.  Support for their efforts is provided through the Development Department. The department's Assistant Director, Jack Kuntz, is responsible for working with our neighborhoods and neighborhood associations in a positive and proactive manner.

Currently the residents of almost 15 neighborhoods have come together as associations to deal with quality of life issues which affect their immediate area.  In some cases, they've banded together strictly for crime watch.  In others, they also work to promote neighborhood improvement and pride.
