The City of Geneva offers 11 different neighborhoods, each with an active resident population that have pride of place in their community.
Vision, Mission & Purpose
The Office of Neighborhood Initiatives (ONI) is a conduit between the residents, the neighborhood associations that they have created, and City Government- assisting in the overcoming of challenges, improvements and beautification of neighborhoods, and bringing community members together in order to accomplish their own unique vision through their own eyes. The ONI helps to facilitate events, provide opportunities to develop pride in place, and supports the notion that it is not what the City Government wants to accomplish, but what the City can do to help residents accomplish their goals.
