Pleasantville inducted into Super Neighborhood network

 Led in large part by women in the neighborhood, Pleasantville became a “Super Neighborhood,” a designation granted to communities in the city that organize a governing council and are committed to working with the city for community improvement.

After forming council number 57, the Pleasantville Council joined other Houston-area councils in the Super Neighborhood Councils network in 2001. Jaunetta Johns, the first council president, noted environmental concerns as major issues to address, and hoped that the neighborhood network will help Pleasantville do so.
