About Us

South Land Park is a neighborhood of over 14,000+ residents in the southwest area of Sacramento. SLPNA exists to protect, promote, and enhance our neighborhood.

We are a neighborhood of YIMBY's! (Yes in My Backyard!)

We have welcomed and actively supported numerous projects in South Land Park, and we encourage commercial and public investments in our community.

A few recent examples:
  1. we recently supported all three shopping center projects (new Raleys on Freeport Blvd, remodel of Florin West Center, and new SF Market opening in South Hills Center);
  2. we supported the new fuel station at Blair Ave. and Freeport Blvd;
  3. we joined with neighbors in supporting a historical community trail (Del Rio Trail);
  4. we have hosted ribbon cutting ceremonies for new businesses;
  5. we utilize and support neighborhood businesses and services, and oppose displacement of those businesses;
  6. we supported a new dog park/cafe proposal on Freeport Blvd;
  7. we advocated for improvements to our parks;
  8. we advocate for more pedestrian friendly street crossings and safer routes to schools.
As "YIMBY's", we support smart, safe, and environmentally friendly projects that improve the livability of our neighborhood. Go to our Membership page to join us!
