When the Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council was created in 1966, there were two principal resident organizations which became charter members. Rosedale Neighbors took the western half and the Washington Heights Association represented everything east of Des Peres.

In the early 1980s, Washington Heights withdrew from the SDCC in a dispute over the redevelopment of Nina Place.

It disbanded thereafter.

The SDCC has utilized other ways to ensure that Washington Heights residents had some representation. At-large seats on the council have been the principal means though director Nancy Farmer helped set up representation for 58-5900 DeGiverville, Nina Place, and Kingsbury Square. Current SDCC president, Katrina Stierholz, wanted to have a more set means of representation for Washington Heights and its own association. Vice-president Mike Noble, of 57xx McPherson, has chaired 2 meetings to see if there is a desire to have an organization and how to establish it.

There has been considerable interest with over 20 residents attending one of the gatherings.

As a first step, the block captains will meet on Nov. 18 to discuss council representation and create greater communication. For further information, call David Whiteman at 862-5122.
