About Bronx Community Board 6
Bronx Community Board 6 serves the neighborhoods of Bathgate, Belmont, East Tremont, and West Farms. The district is home to several prominent institutions, cultural destinations, and community assets, including Fordham University, Arthur Avenue, the Bronx Zoo, the New York Botanical Garden, and St. Barnabas Hospital.
Community Boards are appointed advisory bodies within the City of New York that represent distinct community districts across all five boroughs. They serve as an important link between local residents and City agencies, providing a forum for community engagement, advising on local needs and priorities, and facilitating communication between residents and municipal government.
