• Our association and its publications will benefit Four Hills Village Village by publicizing important issues, accurately representing issues and events, and striving to publish both sides of an issue.
• The FHVNA will work closely with elected government representatives to make Four Hills Village a better place to live.

We communicate with our members using our website, along with print and email newsletters, then have meetings only as needed or required. Because we conduct so much of our business via the Internet, we've had very few association meetings this year (read the minutes here). Meetings are announced via the website and/or the newsletter. Our policy is to have a public survey open to all residents for major issues affecting our neighborhood and reporting the voting results to the interested parties such as the City and our Councilor. (read the minutes here: 2/16/08 (PDF), 02/05/08 (PDF)). Meetings are announced via the website and/or the newsletter.

It's now time to take the next steps in making the Four Hills Village Neighborhood Association more effective for all Four Hills Village residents. These steps are discussed below. Of course, we don’t plan on sitting still while they are being taken: we plan on informing members of important issues, taking measures allowed by the interim bylaws that were written in order to incorporate, and asking residents to vote on important issues so we can accurately inform the City.

• New Bylaws
  If you want to have an effect on how the Four Hills Village Neighborhood Association will operate, then please help re-write the interim bylaws. The new bylaws will reflect the desires of the members and include the operating model, roles and responsibilities of the members and officers, and how officers are elected. To help write the new bylaws, please email info@fhvna.org or call Cathy Loveday, 298-4801.


• Issues
  A distinctive attribute of our association is that we identify issues and concerns of the members and residents, provide them with information and get their feedback. For example, your input clearly said that you didn't want traffic islands in FHV; this was conveyed to Councilor Harris and islands were not installed. While most of this information sharing can be done through email and print mail, volunteers are needed to coordinate, facilitate and formalize the process. If you are willing to help identify and explain issues, please email info@fhvna.org.
