Area Representatives

Area representatives work for the  betterment and general improvement of their community. It is a chance to have a voice and impact on both neighborhood and City business. It is also a wonderful way to get to know your neighbors and your community. The Palisades Neighborhood Association (PNA)  has 13 separate areas, each with their own area rep. The area rep term is for one year but reps can run as often as they wish.

Chair

The Chair shall preside at all meetings of the PNA; shall be a member, ex officio, of all committees with the exception of the nominating committee; shall represent PNA in person or by a designated representative at public functions; shall establish such committees as may be appropriate to accomplish the purposes of the PNA; shall be responsible for maintaining liaison with private or public organizations whose operations may impact the neighborhood, and for providing information to the membership concerning pertinent activities of these organizations; and shall perform other such duties as may be assigned by the PNA Board.

Vice-Chair

The Vice Chair is an aide to the Chair, serves as Chair in their absence, and performs other duties as may be assigned by the Chair or the Board. The Vice Chair has backup responsibility for meeting notifications, whenever the Secretary is unable to fulfill those obligations.

  • Attend at least 6 PNA Board meetings via Zoom and 1 PNA General Meetings per year to stay up-to-date on what’s happening in our neighborhood;
  • Give input on neighborhood related topics;
  • Communicate neighborhood concerns to the PNA if they are brought to you;
  • Opportunity to get involved in some capacity in special projects – such as park improvements, emergency preparedness, events, traffic-pathway-safety, or other areas of interest in the Palisades area.
