How Does it Work?
TNT is organized into eight geographic areas called sectors. Each sector is facilitated by volunteers elected from within the community and supported by the TNT staff. Each sector elects two board of directors to serve on the city-wide board. If you are interested in becoming a neighborhood leader in your sector, there are opportunities for you to volunteer as a facilitator, task force chair or board director.
TNT provides neighborhood stakeholders a platform to participate in pertinent discussions and decision making processes. Neighborhood stakeholders consist of: residents, businesses, schools, religious organizations, elected officials, agencies, and representatives of City departments including: Park & Recreation, Public Works, Neighborhood and Business Development, Code Enforcement, the Police, etc.
Each TNT sector meets regularly to address issues of concern, celebrate successes, work on long-term plans for their sector, vote on community building projects and establish Task Forces to address specific areas of concern. Please visit the calendar to see the schedule of TNT meetings.
