About the Spencer Road Neighborhood Association

Mission Statement

The mission of the Spencer Road Neighborhood Association is:

  • To enhance the quality of life and residential environment,
  • To foster genuine inclusivity and appreciation of diversity,
  • To ensure that we receive high-quality services from the city,
  • To prevent deterioration in the neighborhood, and
  • To collaborate with other neighborhood associations on issues of common concern.

Members of the SRNA include all residents of Spencer Road, Morris Heights Road, Stone Quarry Road within the city limits, and South Meadow Street Extension. In addition, we will reach out to other neighborhood groups when our interests intersect.

History

Years ago, the residents of Spencer Road came together to form a group that could better advocate for the community on matters that were important to them, such as remedying the dangerous traffic conditions that existed on the street. It became a recognized neighborhood association by the City of Ithaca. Over the years, the group became inactive.

In 2014, a group of residents on Spencer Road elected to re-form and revitalize the neighborhood association with the mission of advocacy on issues currently affecting the Spencer Road community, including (but not limited to) dangerous traffic conditions, street/sidewalk issues, real estate developments, and zoning.
