Introduction
This Avalon Community Village Good Neighbor Agreement (Agreement) is intended to
serve as a joint statement of how the parties agree to work collaboratively to maintain
safety and livability within the Area (Appendix A) for all residents; it is to this end they
enter into this Agreement.
A successful village is designed to provide an opportunity for people experiencing
homelessness to receive the services they need to return to permanent housing. It will
reduce the number of people who would otherwise be living unsheltered in the
community, and it will be a good neighbor to adjacent residences and businesses….

Background
1. This Good Neighbor Agreement (GNA or Agreement) was developed by the Brooklyn
Action Corps (BAC), Hosford-Abernethy Neighborhood District (HAND), and Central
Eastside Industrial Council (CEIC), who have formed the Clinton Triangle Oversight
Committee (CTOC), in partnership with the City of Portland (the City) [as governmental
agency] and Urban Alchemy (UA) [as housing and services provider], with the input of
stakeholders in the participants section below.
