Neighborhood Associations

Neighborhood associations are grassroots residents groups that work towards bettering their particular neighborhoods. They are neither City agencies nor City Departments. The City recognizes their efforts and collaborates to maintain and beautify all neighborhoods in Lawrence.

Community Forums

The City of Lawrence will hold community forums during the spring and the fall of each year. These forums will provide residents the opportunity to discuss issues of importance with the City Council members and Department heads in an informal setting. For more information, please contact:
