In a large city like Saint Paul it is easy to feel like you don’t have a say in the decisions that affect you. Community Councils are a way to give residents a voice in the decisions that affect their neighborhoods and our city. District 2 is one of Saint Paul’s 17 planning districts. We are located in the northeast corner of St. Our boundaries are: Larpenteur Ave. on the north; McKnight Road on
the east; Minnehaha Ave. to the south; and Johnson Parkway and the old Burlington Northern railroad berm to the west. Each of the city’s planning districts has a Community Council as its official citizen participation organization. District 2 Community Council is your neighborhood organization. We are not part of city government—although we often cooperate with the city and police in addressing problems. You Can Make a Difference
Use your hands and ideas to help your neighborhood. There are lots of volunteer opportunities at District 2! No experience is necessary and special interests are encouraged.
