What NDNA Does
The NDNA was very involved in drafting the

this document when dealing with zoning cases in
Far North Dallas.

joined them in hosting Neighborhood Fairs at the
North Central Police Station.
The NDNA has a board position on Texas

organization of homeowners coalitions.
The NDNA meetings have included programs on code
compliance, beautification, low income housing,
curbside recycling, multifamily zoning,
liability, and homeowner boards.
The NDNA has hosted Candidate Forums for Dallas
City Council Districts 11 and 12 and Mayoral
races. Homeowner groups are notified of meetings
and kept abreast of issues through the NDNA
newsletter, email and the NDNA website.
