The Association’s purpose is to promote the common welfare of all residents of the area commonly known as the 12South Neighborhood, in cooperation with the area businesses, charitable, religious, and governmental institutions. This goal is achieved by addressing and educating residents on civic issues such as conservation, historic preservation, appropriate development, zoning and codes compliance; as well as promoting sustainable neighborhood characteristics and values such as community, friendship, beautification, public safety, environmental awareness.
The Association achieved a non-profit status in 2005, and is governed by an executive committee comprised of 12South residents, with the common goal of service to their neighbors to create a safe, happy, and sustainable neighborhood.
12South is the up-and-coming place to live and socialize.
