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.
