What is a Community
Council?
In a large city
like Saint Paul it is easy to feel like you don't have a say in the
decisions that affect you. Community Councils are a way to give residents
a voice in the decisions that affect their neighborhoods and our city.
District 2 is one
of Saint Paul's 17 planning districts. We are located in the northeast
corner of St. Paul. Our boundaries are: Larpenteur Ave. on the north;
McKnight Road on the east; Minnehaha Ave. to the south; and Johnson
Parkway and the old Burlington Northern railroad berm to the west.
Each of the city's
planning districts has a Community Council as its official citizen participation
organization. District 2 Community Council is your neighborhood organization.
We are not part of city government-although we often cooperate with
the city and police in addressing problems.
