Community Boards of the Bronx
Community Boards of the Bronx are local government bodies in the New York City borough of the Bronx, which are appointed by the Borough President. Each of the 12 Community Boards in the Bronx consists of 50 non-paid members. They do not have any administrative rights, but they may present requests, regarding community needs, to City Administration. There is no guarantee that the request will be approved by City, but in practice the most of reasonable problems have been resolved.
