CRIME & SAFETY COMMITTEE
The Crime and Safety Committee was organized in early 2007 in response to rising crime rates. Since then, we have been building a number of outreach and neighborhood safety programs. Our goals are to keep the neighborhood safe, and to provide a source of timely and accurate information about crime activity in the neighborhood.

TRAFFIC COMMITTEE
The Board is actively seeking a TRAFFIC committee chair.
If interested, please contact a member of the BOARD.
SOCIAL COMMITTEE
The Social Committee's primary goal is to provide community
building social events in the East Isles Neighborhood. A secondary
goal is to increase neighborhood awareness of and membership in EIRA. We hold two events annually (ICE CREAM SOCIAL and ICE SKATING PARTY ) and participate in two events annually (PALIO and WINE TASTING fundraiser). Our committee is less formal than most. We meet on an as needed basis. Everyone is welcome to get involved and we are always seeking day-of volunteers to help run events. If you would like to organize and lead an event or help with a much smaller task, please contact the committee chair.
