Great Neighborhoods Challenge Awards Ceremony
HCCA Subcommittee Works on Neighborhood Pride Award
Several associations have voiced concerns about litter, graffiti, and worse around some neighborhood businesses. As a result, a subcommittee of civic leaders is taking a new approach. Instead of relying solely on Code Enforcement, this subcommittee is working on a pilot project that will offer an incentive to small businesses to clean up their premises. Late September 2012 is the target date for rolling out the pilot project on Johnson Street between 56th Avenue and 441.

Help Hollywood SchoolsHCCA member associations are supporting the Box Top Drive to raise money for Hollywood's schools. The drive is being organized by the City's Education Advisory Board. More information can be found here. Water Bills and Water RatesHCCA is working with the city to try to resolve widespread water billing problems that residents throughout Hollywood are facing. Residents are experiencing no bills, double billing, extraordinarily high bills, and more. Rates have been increased so everyone is paying more. But higher rates do not explain missing bills, double bills, and the huge billing spikes that some have experienced. The new complicated water rates are explained in a city flyer copied here. For leak detection you can do on your own, the city offers this information. For claiming a high use credit after you have fixed a leak, the city offers a high use credit form. |
