NOTE:
|
Although this, and many other neighborhood associations and neighborhood community clubs have existed in this city for, in some cases, over 100 years, and although none of them have ever been neighborhood housing associations, they have been erroneously listed as such on the official City of Waterbury website as such. To be clear, neighborhood housing associations are very much different from condo associations, and both of those are very different from organizations such as Neighborhood Housing Services of Waterbury (NHSW) and Loyola Development Corporation, and all of those are vastly different from any of Waterbury's neighborhood associations and neighborhood community clubs. The function, purpose, and manifestation of each of these types of organizations is significantly different, and none should be confused with the other.

The historic Arlington Heights Neighborhood Association (AHNA) hosted it’s first meeting on Tuesday, July 11th, 2017. Attendees included such community supporters as Alderman Greg Hadley, State Representative Larry Butler, and President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), James Monroe. The first AHNA meeting ever brought eighteen concerned Waterburians together, who discussed various safety and quality of life concerns, elected interim officers, and agreed to meet monthly, on the second Tuesday of each month. Meetings will take place at 6:00 p.m., at a location yet to be determined. The organization, which was spearheaded by resident Arlanda Brantley, is being called the Arlington Heights Neighborhood Association for historic accuracy, distinct identification, and geographic consistency. Brantley attributes some of her immediate success to former Waterbury Neighborhood Council (WNC) President Vincent E. Martinelli, who also attended. Martinelli assisted Brantley with ideas, facts, and contact information for various community leaders and organizations. Martinelli said in an interview after the meeting, “Arlanda did all of the real work, I just provided ideas, contact information, and moral support. Arlanda and her family did the door-to-door leafletting, and the rest of the leg work.” Martinelli brings his experience as President of the Waterbury Neighborhood Council since 2014, until his departure in May of 2017. Residents from nearly every street in the neighborhood attended, along with residents from Morningside, Willow-Orange-Walsh, Brooklyn, and Murray Park. AHNA future meetings will likely host the Community Police Officer and other guest speakers.
