Come for a visit.
Stay for a lifetime.
Welcome! The Beverly Area Planning Association (BAPA) invites you to learn more about the Beverly Hills/Morgan Park community and all we have to offer. With the help of our community partners, BAPA fosters a safe, friendly, diverse and family-oriented neighborhood. Our close-knit community has top-notch schools, growing businesses, rising home values, and plenty of fun. Whether you are a prospective resident who needs information about local shops, services and amenities, or a current neighbor or business owner looking for resources or referrals, BAPA can help.
Join us on Saturday, April 27, from 9:00 to 11:00 am, for our Annual Clean and Green event! BAPA is looking for local groups to help out at local parks and public areas. Rakes, brooms, shovels and other tools are provided by the 19th Ward office, and teams from area organizations clear away winter debris and litter, and spruce up gardens and play areas in time for spring. Interested in learning more about volunteering for neighborhood clean-ups? You can sign up below, email Mary Jo Viero or call her at 773-233-3100.
