Our CPNA Board
​
Columbia Park Neighborhood Association (CPNA) Board members are Columbia Park neighborhood residents who volunteer and give of their time to ensure that Columbia Park remains a great neighborhood live, work and visit. They work together to set the direction of the organization, ensure sound fiscal procedures, develop projects with community stakeholders and organize events that build community. 

 
How's the CPNA Board elected?

Every year, at the CPNA Annual Meeting, which takes place the second Tuesday in May, neighborhood residents elect 10 eligible Columbia Park Members to a two-year Board of Directors term.

Columbia Park neighborhood residents and business owners or their representative are eligible to serve on the Board.  Officers are elected the following month after the Annual Meeting, at the monthly scheduled June meeting of the Board of Directors.
