What We Do and Membership Benefits

We invite you to join The Ruxton-Riderwood-Lake Roland Area Improvement Association. The Association works closely with elected officials, environmental planners, law enforcement officials, and neighborhood associations to address local issues and advocate for favorable resolutions for our community. The Association covers over 4,200 acres of land and has nearly 1,000 household members. The Association is managed by an elected Board of Governors from the community who direct the activities of multiple active committees. Our Executive Administrator coordinates member requests and maintains close contact with local government and law enforcement officials.

As an Association member, you become part of our effort to help build a strong, vibrant community. Your yearly Association membership includes:

Membership provides you: 

    • A voice for your concerns with traffic, road conditions, sidewalks, bridge improvement, trash, graffiti, and invasive vine removal with county and state officials. The Association organizes monthly Second Saturday roadside cleanups and stream clean-ups.
    • Weekly E-News, which keeps members informed on Association News and Events, Community Announcements, Events Happening in our Area, and Patron Highlights.
    • Updates on crime and public safety information from our Baltimore County Police Liaison. 
    • A Monitor: zoning issues, variances, special exceptions, and code enforcement issues. Association volunteers work directly with County officials and solicit neighborhood feedback when modifications to a residence require the Design Review Panel (DRP).
    • Advocacy addressing flooding, improving sewer function, and coordinating action items in the 2020 Community Plan.
    • Invitations to the Association’s educational lectures, speaker series, events, and Annual Meeting.
    • Input into the concerns addressed in the Association’s Community Plan. Key issues are submitted and incorporated into Baltimore County’s Master Plan.
    • Access to our Executive Administrator, who coordinates member requests, manages Board activity, and offers advocacy with county and state officials. 

Dues fund all Association activities. The Association’s Membership year runs from January 1st through December 31st. If you have any questions, please reach out to our Executive Administrator at office@rrlraia.org
