Good Neighbors Policy
The Powelton Village Civic Association Board would like
to remind neighbors of our commitment to be good neighbors
to group homes situated in Powelton Village. PVCA is
a signatory to the Good Neighbors Policy, which was
developed by the University City Community Council (of
which PVCA is a part) in conjunction with the Department
of Public Health (DPH) and the Department of Human Services
(DHS). The goals of the policy are:
- to open and maintain channels of communication
among, the communities of University City, representatives
of DPH and DHS, and funded facilities in our neighborhood.
- to integrate these facilities into our neighborhood
- to consider issues of safety, transportation,
local zoning requirements and the quality of life
in the surrounding community, when locating facilities.
To facilitate the resolution of any concerns or complaints,
we ask that you contact, our group homes liaison,
who will document your complaint and discuss it with
the facility representative. You will be then be told
how the problem has been addressed. If the facility
is not responsive or a satisfactory resolution is
not reached, representatives from DPH and DHS can
be brought in to help mediate.
