McDougall-Hunt is one of those east side neighborhoods with neighborhood blight. We have vacant land and alleyways with illegal dumping of rubbish and trash. Blight not only makes the area less attractive, it also decreases the surrounding property and poses numerous safety hazards. We have been doing small and large blight removal projects since 2014. Over the years, we have revitalized parks and public spaces throughout the neighborhood. We are working hard to increase our community impact and to be a good example of what resident led change looks like.  We want to support to be good stewards of our neighborhood while developing a sense of community by increasing interactions among our neighbors.  Most importantly, we do it because we all residents to feel safe and proud of where they live.
