The Livability & Safety committee goal is to engage and educate the Sylvan-Highlands neighborhood in sustainable practices, environmental stewardship and related community projects.

  • SOLVE Clean Ups
  • Garden Median Maintenance
  • Annual Social Events

This committee also coordinates recycling/sustainability programs, good neighbor agreements, social events such as “Zoo Lights Food Drive” and other issues affecting the neighborhood’s livability. We always welcome new, motivated members!
