GOALS FOR VALLEY VIEW HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD

These are the following goals for the Valley View Neighborhood that the "Nehemiah Mesquite Mission" is working towards:


Our goals for the Nehemiah Mesquite Mission’s efforts in the Valley View Heights Addition through February are the following:

CRIME
* Find and develop at least 3-4 crime watch chairpersons to work certain streets. Work closely with police department so they have good information and intelligence as to potential problems.
* Encourage neighbors knowing each other and communicating well with one another.
* Make sure all sex offenders are properly registered

MINISTRY/EVANGELISM
* Involve area churches to come minister in that neighborhood.
* Help spread love and kindness up and down each street. (Jesus said "Love your neighbor.")

QUALITY OF LIFE/ENCOURAGING GOOD CITIZENSHIP
* Engage landlords who are not taking care of their properties—persuade and encourage them to take better care of their properties and invest more in the neighborhood
* Show appreciation for those renters and landlords who do take care of their properties.
* Assist renters and homeowners who legitimately need some help with their lawn/landscapes or home repair work. (Similar type work that “Addressing Mesquite Day” does.
* Incorporate monthly “trash bashes” or litter cleanups.
* Encourage recycling.
* Register folks in that neighborhood to vote and get involved in their community
* Encourage participation in PTAS for neighborhood feeder schools
* Encourage the convenience store next to the neighborhood at Carnation and Rodeo Center to stop selling drug paraphanalia and become more family oriented.

NEXT NEIGHBORHOOD
We’d covet prayers from everyone as to which neighborhood the Nehemiah Mesquite Mission should go into after Valley View Heights. Our goal is to have accomplished our goals for Valley View Heights by February.

I don't know how much help we will have, or how many volunteers will step up. But I know that all things are possible with God! Lets be praying for God to bless every family living in the Valley View Heights Neighborhood!

There is nothing wrong with Mesquite that cannot be fixed with what is right with Mesquite!
