Frankford CDC to hold first election

The Frankford CDC will be holding elections for its Neighborhood Advisory Subcommittee on Tuesday, April 7, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The Neighborhood Advisory Committee serves as a subcommittee to the Frankford Community Development Corporation. The purpose of the committee is to assist the Frankford CDC with fulfilling its obligations to the City of Philadelphia’s Office of Housing and Community Development. The NAC board provides citizens with adequate opportunity to participate in decisions made around the delivery of affordable housing resources and development in the Frankford community.
