EVERGREEN NEIGHBORHOOD

ENA worked closely with the City and Gramor. ENA was instrumental in getting the traffic control measure at the intersection of 4th & Evergreen to make sure that Evergreen Road did not become a busy, high-traffic street like A Avenue... In 2004, ENA began working on a Neighborhood Plan (part of the City's Neighborhood Planning Program) to "develop a vision and corresponding customized guidance on matters of land use, building, site design, parking and street design and maintenance." The Plan took a lot of effort by many in the neighborhood and was eventually adopted in November 2005... The genesis of the Evergreen Neighborhood Association came in 1976, when several neighbors realized that they had common concerns and ideas about the future of the neighborhood environment. Forming an organization to work together for the betterment of that neighborhood led to the Evergreen Neighborhood Association (ENA) being officially founded on February 24, 1976.
