DECA News
Dresden East Civic Association DECA is a non-profit civic association created to preserve and enhance our neighborhoods. We are guided in our work by overall community interests dedicated to maintaining and improving the quality of life for residents in the DECA neighborhoods and surrounding areas. Underlying our association’s existence is the importance of influencing various issues that may impact our neighborhoods, both short and long term. We are very active in DeKalb county affairs through membership on civic-minded boards, commissions, and other groups. We hope there’s a little something on our site for everyone, whether you live in a DECA neighborhood…or plan to in the near future.
DECA represents the interests of the residents and businesses within eight neighborhoods of north DeKalb County, GA. DECA has a board of directors, which is governed by DECA’s bylaws. DECA’s board meets monthy, and the organization meets quarterly. To maintain one of the objectives of DECA, “to keep the citizens informed of community problems or opportunities and to build a sense of community”, DECA maintains this web site and a Yahoo! group, and issues a quarterly newsletter. In addition, DECA’s Diners Club gatherings help us take advantage of all the ethnic dining opportunities that our area has to offer. Read the details and find out where we are meeting this month.
