We, at GLNA (Geist Landing Neighborhood Association), strive to maintain a safe, comfortable, and crime-free neighborhood. We maintain and make decisions on the entrances, snow removal, lighting, out of compliance residences, and safety. |

Q: When is Heavy Trash Day? A: Our trash collection contractor, Republic Services, will pick up heavy trash items once a month on our regular trash day, Monday. Basically, it is an honor system where you choose which Monday of the month that you want to set out your heavy trash. Accepted items are described in the heavy trash services section of the IndyGov.org website. Q: Where do I vote and what is my voting precinct? A: Registered Geist Landing Residents usually vote at the Castleview Baptist Church located at 8601 Hague Rd. You can find the most recent voting information at the IndyGov.org website in the voter information section. Q: Are GLNA Dues mandatory? A: No. Unlike many surrounding neighborhoods, GLNA Membership dues are voluntary. Also, our membership dues are MUCH less expensive (about 1/3 of the average surrounding neighborhoods fees). Q: What expenses does GLNA have? A: GLNA pays for many different aspects of maintaining the neighborhood that would otherwise not be covered by the city. We pay for landscaping and mowing services to keep the entrances of the neighborhood beautiful. One of our most regular expenses is for the streetlights. They are leased from Indianapolis Power and Light, so we don't have to take care of the maintenance, but we do pay a monthly charge for each one. The lights that illuminate the entrance signs are owned by the association and we pay regular electric rates for them. Also, in the winter, we pay for private plowing services as the city trucks do not come to our neighborhood until all public streets are cleared. Other expenses include printing and mailing of the newsletter and annual meeting reminder notices, supplies for neighborhood cleanup projects, the annual block party, as well as administrative fees such as the annual state filing fee for the organization. Officers and Directors are volunteers and often donate small items to help out, as well as their time and efforts. Please submit your question to the President and it may be added here. |
