Each contains at least two individual neighborhoods and has been assigned a letter of the alphabet from A to Z.*

How does the NPU System work?

•    City officials provide information to and get feedback from the NPUs on public safety, public works, permits, parks, and other neighborhood planning matters.

•    Everyone over the age of 18 who lives in Atlanta’s city limits is a member of an NPU.

•    Property owners, business owners, and organizations can have a representative member, too.

•    NPUs typically meet once a month to conduct business.

•    Each NPU has its own bylaws so there’s no one-size-fits-all description.

•    NPUs help prepare the Comprehensive Development Plan dealing with the physical, social, and economic aspects of our city.
