To take special care of our community, HBNA has several committees to allow board members and neighbors to be involved utilizing their best skillset to match the mission of each committee. Browse through the list of committees below and feel free to reach out to committee chairs if you would like to be involved in the great work.
The CM&E committee oversees all of the Historic Brookhaven Common Areas including the triangles, micro-parks, and monuments throughout the neighborhood with the mission to maintain and enhance these areas.
Recent key accomplishments include the cleanup of two major parks in the neighborhood, Mayson Ravine and Vermont Park as well as work performed on Lakehaven and East Brookhaven Parks.
This is a great committee for those who like to play in the dirt.
The transportation committee is responsible for any issues involving roads, curbs, drainage basins, and sidewalks. It also deals with traffic (pedestrian and road). The respective city governments (Atlanta and Brookhaven) are the true responsible parties, however, the transportation committee serves as a liaison for areas of concern and attempts to resolve any issues in a more effective timeline.
The zoning committee consists of two separate committees (Atlanta/Fulton and Brookhaven/DeKalb ) that oversee issues involving development, rezoning, variances, special use permits, and appeals within and surrounding the HBNA community. The applicant/representative presents the request to the Committee and citizen comment is solicited at this time. The committees then forward its recommendations to the HBNA Board for a vote. HBNA's recommendation are forwarded to the NPU-B (Atlanta /Fulton County) and City of Brookhaven (DeKalb County) as appropriate.
