Important Neighbourhood Meeting Tonight | February 11, 2014
Where: Lucas Centre (Gymnasium)
Date: Tuesday, February 11th
Time: 7:00PM
In the upcoming months, important meetings and potential decisions will be made regarding the Lucas Centre on 21st Street. The Hamilton Heights neighbourhood and residents have been denied access to “stakeholders” meetings because we were not a formal association. With this in mind, concerned
residents have created the HAMILTON HEIGHTS NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION – a voice for all homeowners and residents.
Prior to the next North Vancouver School District (NVSD) meeting regarding the Lucas Centre, we would like to hear from everyone regarding your concerns and ideas about the neighbourhood property.
Please make every effort to attend this open meeting. Come out and add your voice to this critical discussion about the future of your neighbourhood.

Welcome to the Hamilton Heights Neighbourhood Association. We are proud of our neighbourhood – our homes, our trails, our gardens and our active and friendly north shore community. We invite you to become involved with the association and the continued improvement of the Hamilton Heights area.
