Neighborhood Priority Plan
As part of the East Harriet Farmstead Neighborhood Association's (EHFNA) funding through the Community Participation Neighborhood Priority Plan, a priority plan has been created that lists two priorities EHNFA will be focusing on for 2014. As part of this process, we are providing a 21 day notice for neighbors to comment and review.

The plan was developed in partnership with members of the board and was shaped by feedback received from a neighborhood survey. To see results of the survey, click here.
