The Parrot Cove Neighborhood Association is named for the flocks of green parrots nesting in our trees. Residents are an eclectic mixture with varied professional backgrounds and lifestyles who share an appreciation of old Florida. The Neighborhood includes Lucerne Avenue on the south, the golf course on the east, the south side of 13th Avenue North on the north and the east side of Federal on the west. The neighborhood is almost entirely made up of single family homes, some dating from the heydays of the Florida land boom in the 1920s but most built in the next wave of Florida’s growth in the 1950s and 60s. The neighborhood is family oriented, with safe streets and no through traffic.
The neighborhood association was formed in April 2000 as a non-profit organization with the goals of providing information about a wide range of issues and serving as a way to bring neighbors together to create a strong sense of community. Everyone is welcome at the general meetings with featured speakers such as elected or City officials, experts on development, growth, real estate, schools or others with issues of interest . These meetings are scheduled at least six times a year.
Parrot Cove marches in local parades and participates in events such as the July 4th raft race.
We publish a quarterly newsletter, which includes news of interest to residents. It is delivered to residents' homes and available on here under the "News" tab.
Our major fundraiser is an every-other-year Parrot Cove Home and Garden Tour when residents' open their homes to visitors. Successful home tours over the years have helped raise money to improve our community including tree give aways after hurricanes, the purchase of banners designating our neighborbood and donations to local charities.
Regular membership dues for the calendar year are $30 per household.. Social Memberships are available for anyone who lives outside the boundaries of Parrot Cove (dues are the same). Social members cannot vote for officers or hold office. To renew your membership or join, click the "Membership" tab.
