Membership in ABC is open to any resident, property or business owner within the neighborhood boundary and if you are eighteen (18) or older you are eligible to vote (sorry only one vote per member).

Elections for ABC Executive Board Members (one-year term) are open to all ABC members, they will be elected by a simple hand-counting on ZOOM.

We will be electing: Two co-chairs, One Treasurer, One Secretary (current Secretary is moving, so no incumbent is running) and Eight Members-at-Large.
