Neighborhood Association Meetings

Welcome! We'd be glad to have you join us at a meeting of Sifton Neighborhood Association, where we discuss commercial and residential development in our area, businesses, opportunities to make a difference, traffic concerns, public works, issues of crime and nuisances, and many other issues affecting quality of life.

Due to numerous issues that affect both neighborhoods, in some months of 2004, our meetings were combined with meetings of Heritage Neighborhood Association.

Please also see their pages for minutes of meetings.

We generally meet on the second Tuesday of some months at Fire Station 88 (Ward Road and Fourth Plain).
