About the Regent Neighborhood & the RNA
The purpose of the Regent Neighborhood Association (RNA) is to articulate common interests in the
neighborhood, work for neighborhood improvement, and maintain strong communications with and
between residents. The RNA seeks to be a broad-based, inclusive, and credible organization engaging
as many neighborhood residents as possible in efforts to improve the neighborhood.
Specifically, we strive to:
-maintain the family and residential character of the neighborhood while welcoming small businesses;
-improve the quality of schools, green spaces, transportation, and other features of the neighborhood;
-encourage good relations between homeowners, landlords, renters, and business owners; and
-promote citizen involvement in neighborhood and city affairs.
