Purpose: From the bylaws, the purpose of Woodlake Neighborhood Association is
· WNA serves as liaison between the neighborhood and local government.
· WNA provides a non-partisan forum for the discussion of neighborhood concerns of mutual interest.
· WNA facilitates the success of related neighborhood groups such as the Friends of the Library, Garden Club, Mother’s Club, and Swim Club.
· WNA maintains communication within the neighborhood on issues of concern, including but not limited to: planning updates, rezoning proposals, community problems, variance requests, disposal of public property, traffic flow, public safety, and other governmental and/or private actions that would affect the neighborhood and surrounding area.
Next to the annual social events for the neighborhood, communications and timely education are keys to WNA success.
