SERVICES

Ridge Park Civic is committed to serving the community by supporting its needs in a variety of ways, including:

  • Zoning Hearings are a big part of how RPCA supports the community. Any construction plans needing a zoning variance come to the RPCA, and our board handles community feedback, deliberations with developers, presenting to the Zoning Board, hiring legal council and representation, and more.
  • Neighborhood Conservation Overlay (NCO) maintains the beautiful public streetscape and visual qualities of our neighborhood by implementing standards for new construction.
  • Tree Tenders plants trees locally in collaboration with the PA Horticultural Society.
  • Clean ups in Germany Hill & other areas remove trash and debris throughout the year.
  • Inter-Community Organization Collaboration, by corresponding with other local RCOs, especially when properties overlap boundary lines.
  • Publishing community updates, whether here on this site, via email updates, or on Facebook. We spread awareness of things happening in the neighborhood.
  • Community Outreach / Resident support

HISTORY

The Ridge Park Civic Association became an official Registered Community Organization (RCO) in July 2018. However, its involvement in the community spans back as far as 1995.
