Board of Directors Call for Nominations

  • The positions are President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer,  NPU-N representative, and Land Use Committee Chairperson.
  • The current PHNA board will serve as the nominating committee, in the interest of making best use of the time of volunteers.
  • Any Poncey-Highland member may nominate someone else or themselves for these positions. Please submit any nominations to board@ponceyhighland.org no later than Dec 10 so they can be added to the ballot. Anyone nominated must be a full-time resident of Poncey-Highland and give consent to having their name included in the list of candidates.
  • PHNA will provide the neighborhood the names of ALL nominees and the names of its recommended candidates on Monday Dec 16.
  • On Dec 18, at the Dec General Meeting the neighborhood will vote on the slate. PH members may also nominate candidates at the Dec 18 meeting prior to the vote. Contested officer positions will be voted on by simple show of hands/straws, including absentee and/or proxy votes.
Neighborhood Planning
A planning process update will be sent soon in a separate email once we have any new information to share.

Hope to see you all at the meeting. If you have any questions, please email board@ponceyhighland.org.
This past Saturday, around 75 volunteers - mostly Poncey-Highland residents - convened at the Poncey-Highland playground in Freedom Park to don orange vests, divide into teams, and mobilize to pick up litter for the 2nd annual Peachy Clean Poncey.  Led by seven local captains, volunteers picked up countless bags of trash, including a water heater, three cat condos, two shopping carts, a laundry scale, a few mattresses, and much more. Tools, vests and gloves were provided by the Atlanta ToolBank. After concluding the pickup at noon, the volunteers reconvened at New Realm Brewery to enjoy a free beverage, courtesy of New Realm, and an awesome raffle of items from around the neighborhood. Gigi Taylor handily won the hat contest, and everyone promised to come back next year. 

Special thanks to Malory Atkinson and Mark Broadbeck for leading the Peachy Clean effort, and to all of the volunteers who came out to keep Poncey-Highland peachy clean! 

And a big thank you to all our sponsors!
