CONO meets on the
4th Tuesday of each month at the Decatur Public Library
at 7:00 p.m. CONO provides a common ground to network and share
information and participates in collaborative problem solving
efforts with various agencies throughout the city. CONO
was established in 1991, and in 1997 was recognized by the Decatur
City Council as the official representative of Decatur neighborhoods.
Since that time CONO has consistently been the number one “grassroots”
organization in Decatur, by serving as the umbrella organization
to all neighborhoods in the city.
Our mission is to support
the formation, development, and empowerment of grassroots neighborhood
organizations within the city boundaries of Decatur. Their goals
are to meet with representatives of various neighborhood organizations/associations
together in a room with service providers and city representatives
to tackle issues in our neighborhoods. All grassroots volunteers
engage in hard work and dedication in making their neighborhoods
the best they can be to improve the quality of life in Decatur.
