Decatur Condo Alliance Opens Its Doors
Decatur Metro | August 25, 2008Aimee writes in with news about the nearly year-old Decatur Condo Alliance that meets monthly to share ideas and provide mutual support on all things condo. As Aimee tells it, the Alliance is currently made up of residents from the big 7 midrise condos in Decatur, but will soon be opening its doors to all types of condo owners around the city.
A few more details from Aimee…
Beginning with our Thursday, September 11th meeting, we are opening the membership to any condo resident of whatever type of condo complex – including town homes, who is interested to find out what we are doing and to help to shape our conversations and activities.
The Sept. 11th meeting will be held at the Decatur Rec Center at 7pm.
Maybe if we created a “Decatur Neighborhood Alliance” we could then take out any pent up animosity towards each other in competitive, citywide games of Capture the Flag!
“I hate your smug density!” “I hate your self-righteous yard signs!”
(Actually, in all seriousness…that sounds really fun)
Careful, DM. You don’t want to suggest support of the idea that there might be more than one way to live. The single family home is the American ideal. To suggest otherwise is Communist. Or Fascist. Or something.
We’ve got some good folks here defending the supremacy of the single family lifestyle. If they’re successful, we can ensure one quick ‘n easy choice in how to live, for everyone. No messy complexity of differing opinions or interests. And once everyone is all alike, things will be so much simpler. Just like a subdivision!
lol…
The Decatur Neighborhood Alliance meets twice annually and is always a great way to interact directly with City officials and learn about current and future plans. The Condo Alliance was more or less birthed from there.

Ha! Carl, you’re always about three steps ahead of me! And now that you say that…I’ve definitely heard of the Neighborhood Alliance before.
Let the city-wide Capture the Flag begin!
Capture the flag!! Fun times! Avoid playing it in the dark however (skinned knees result)
Oh MAN…a downtown Decatur capture the flag game?!?!? This sounds like a MUST-DO. IT would certainly beat the daylights out of the goofy beach party!!!
And have to respectfully disagree w/Vermont Mom–definitely after dark, with lots of flashlights!
