SBNA is divided into 10 local neighborhood groups to facilitate contact with nearby neighbors (e.g., your dog is at my house; a cougar is headed for your chickens), communicate during emergencies, finding help getting groceries or a ride, working together on projects, or just getting to know our neighbors.

Examples of local Neighborhood Group activities:

  • Maintain a text group for emergencies, (e.g., “I see smoke near S Willamette and the city limits – does anyone know what’s going on?).
  • Maintain an e-mail list for non-emergency communications (e.g., there are grants available from the county for brush reduction to prevent wildfire).
  • Being a certified Firewise community.

Each local group decides on its activities and has a leader.
