Energize on Public Radio (LINK) Nikki telling Boise about Energize our Neighborhoods.

Join us for food, drinks and merriment as we showcase and celebrate the work that our Boise National Street Service Volunteers completed in the spring. Volunteers have been working across the city to change the way we talk about our streets and public spaces. During this event, we will share the work they have done, what we have learned and how we can move forward together to make Boise streets a better place for everyone. Please join us to be part of the conversation.

May 10th Agenda

At a meeting of WBNA Board members (Minutes here) WBNA Board Decided we would have a visioning event of our own.

Board member Jonathan Melby will lead the group in a brainstorming session
to help guide WBNA using the base question What does it mean for WBNA to be Successful? .

Intended deliverable will be a loosely prioritized List of neighborhood goals.

The Boise City Council has been discussing ways to engage Boise residents on issues that we all care about. In a survey sent out early in the year, many residents said that they’d like to hear from us through town halls, similar to how they hear from their legislators. The first town hall will be held from 7-9 p.m. on Wednesday, April 11 at Fire Station 4, at 8485 Ustick Road.
