The Clarksville Community Development Corporation (CCDC) is a non-profit, tax-exempt, neighborhood-based organization. It was established in the late Seventies during the first wave of gentrification and development to affect the neighborhood in order to preserve the historic character of Clarksville and engage in projects for the community's benefit. Today, the CCDC owns and manages affordable housing in Clarksville, providing 11 families with a comfortable place to live. It also owns the Clarksville Neighborhood Center at 1807 West 11th Street, which is available for meetings, classes, seminars, and other community activities. The CCDC is managed by a neighborhood-elected board of directors, which meets on the third Tuesday of every month at the Neighborhood Center starting at 6:30 PM. The meetings are open to the public and residents of Clarksville are invited to attend and participate. The CCDC publishes a quarterly newsletter, The Clarksville Gold Dollar. The newsletter includes feature stories about this history of Clarksville and about interesting people who live in the neighborhood now as well as news about programs, activities and events of interest to Clarksville residents. Individuals interested in purchasing an ad in the Clarksville Gold Dollar should contact Mary Reed at 478-1259 or (click here to email).                 Board Members Chris Thomas - President Mary Reed - Vice President Buddy Utley - Treasurer Kim O'Brian - Secretary Tina Slayton - Property Manager Richard Hughes - Board Member Ginger Berryhill - Board Member Pauline Brown - Board Member Don Baylor - Board Member David Webber - Board Member Malcom Greenstein - Board Member Tony Smith - Ex Officio Board Member Margaret Bruch - Ex Officio Board Member Nancy Toelle - Ex Officio Board Member     CCDC Meetings Meetings are held on the 3rd Tuesday of every month at 6:30pm Meetings are held at the Clarksville Neighborhood Center - 1807 W. 11th All neighborhood residents are welcome to attend
