We are a team of teachers, gardeners, parents, artists, coaches, bakers, renters, cyclists, students, elders, musicians, dreamers, organizers, and, most importantly, neighbors!

The Summit-University Planning Council has been active since 1974. Although the community has experienced many changes over the years, the impact we can achieve by working together remains strong. From families who have lived here for decades to new neighbors, this is a welcoming space for all.
