Over the past several months, we have been working on updating the website for the Crescent Hill Community Council. As many of you are aware, our old website needed serious updating and given the technology, it was a difficult task. While this new website is much easier for us to update, there are still some areas that are incomplete. In the coming weeks and months we will be adding more content and utilizing the features available to us. The items that will be updated first will include board and officer information, committee information and organizational documents. Thank you for your patience and enjoy!
