Last week I wrote a portion of a grant proposal for the Inn Yard Park playground. One of the questions I answered was “What benefit does the East Falls Community Council [EFCC] bring to the community?” Following is my response: (1) The Zoning and Land Use Committee meets monthly to review requests for variances from the City Zoning Code. It provides a forum for potentially affected neighbors to discuss with the applicant the how, what, and why of the proposed change. It then advises the City of the residents’ support or opposition to requests by those who want to alter the general rules, and explains the community position. (2) The Fall Festival offers and coordinates programs during October for the community: Multi-Cultural Festival, Fallsers’ Perform, Art Show & Sale, Cemetery Tour, House Tour, Old Academy Players production, Halloween Carnival, Poetry Readings, Glassblowing, and a Historical Tour.
(3) We have an annual Flea Market with about 250 vendors where neighbors buy and sell. |
