IF ANYTHING IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD NEEDS TO BE CHANGED, TELL YOUR COMMUNITY BOARD WHEN IT MEETS IN KENSINGTON ON MONDAY







Community Board 12 General Meeting
Monday, January 23rd, 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Community Board 12 will meet in Kensington next Monday for its monthly general meeting. The agenda is posted above.

The board only meets in Kensington every year or two, so this is the perfect opportunity to represent your interests and your neighborhood's interests, especially by speaking during the Public Session.


The meeting is on Monday, January 23rd, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., at The Kensington, the family shelter at 385 McDonald Avenue, across the street from Foodtown.

If you have any concerns about
  • pedestrian safety,
  • traffic congestion,
  • housing,
  • land use and zoning,
  • construction sites,
  • outdoor lighting,
  • potholes,
  • sanitation,
  • libraries,
  • crime,
  • police presence,
  • graffiti,
  • social services,
  • rodents,
  • trash collection,
  • public litter baskets,
  • street and sidewalk conditions,
  • or other issues that you'd like the community board to address,

arrive at the meeting before 7:00 p.m. so you can sign up to speak during the Public Session. You'll have three minutes to present your topic.

Community boards serve as a neighborhood's liaison to city agencies. Board members are appointed by the neighborhood's city councilperson and the borough president.


The neighborhoods served by Community Board 12 are Kensington, Borough Park, Dahill, and Midwood.
