The Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Association will hold its annual officers’ election at the December 9 General Association Meeting.
To vote in the election or to run for an office, you have to be a registered member of the neighborhood organization. The deadline for registering before the elections is November 30. Please get in touch with our treasurer: treasurer@bouldincreek.org
to sign up, or to check whether your registration is current.
We are a volunteer organization that depends on neighbors willing to donate their time and energy to represent our interests at boards and commissions, the Austin Neighborhood Council, and before the Austin City Council. Our officers and committees address zoning issues, traffic problems, and neighborhood parks; manage our funds; maintain the website; and publish newsletters.
We are always looking for new members to join the Association and consider becoming officers or sector representatives. Being a sector representative is a great way to become familiar with neighborhood issues.
If you have any questions about the roles below or are interested in running for a position, please don't hesitate to contact elections@bouldincreek.org. We will publish a list of known candidates in the December/January newsletter, before the December 9 General Association meeting.
