The Board are responsible for overseeing the Saffron Neighbourhood Management Project. Their responsibilities include overseeing the budget, providing guidance to the Neighbourhood Manager and encouraging the involvement of the community.
 
The Board have recently elected their Chair and Vice-Chair who are both local residents.  It is early in the development of the Board and many issues will need to be addressed as time progresses.  Depending upon the type of issues and priorities that arise, the Board may decide to invite representatives of other groups to join the Board, or to attend in an advisory capacity.
