The West End Neighborhood has met for various purposes as far back as the 1970s and became an Association in 1984. Our main goal is to provide neighborhood input to the City of Santa Rosa, particularly in the areas of current or planned developments, crime prevention, street conditions, lighting, preservation and the revitalization of our beloved neighborhood.

WNA working with City of Santa Rosa for Improvements

Crime Prevention We’ve established a Neighborhood Watch program and worked with the SRPD to implement Neighborhood Oriented Policing. We were instrumental in getting alcohol out of neighborhood parks. We strive to have well-managed rentals by working closely with landlords. In some cases, when all else has failed, neighbors have united to sue a landlord and a property owner in two separate cases for nuisance. (By the way, we’ve won our cases.)

The West End Neighborhood Association has two meetings a year — the third Thursday in March and the third Thursday in November at 7 p.m.  Meetings are held at 5 W. 6th Street, Assistance League’s “New to You Shop”. Additional meetings will be held as needed.

We also have an annual B.B.Q. at De Meo Park on the 3rd Saturday in July. West End Neighborhood Association provides hamburgers, hot dogs and beverages. Neighbors bring potluck dishes to share.
