The Grenada Village Community Association Inc. was established on September 14, 1978.

In June 1986, the Community Association was formally registered in the High Court of New Zealand as an Incorporated Society with full legal status and an agreed set of declared rules and objectives.

The executive of the Association consists of duly elected officers, being a Chairperson, Treasurer, Secretary, and general committee members.

The financial year of the Association is October 1 - September 30 each year.

Annual financial membership of the Association is by a voluntary subscription of $10 per household.

All residents receive the Associations quarterly newsletter that concentrates on the issues and developments that directly impact on the community. The newsletter is also sent to a large number of others who have a professional interest in Grenada Village - MP Hon. Peter Dunne, Mayor, City Councillor's, Regional Councillor's, various Council management and departments, local schools, police, newspapers, and several others.

The Association spends a considerable amount of time representing Grenada Village. They negotiate with the City Council and others over services to be provided, and attend many meetings with various community organisations to ensure that the suburb is appropriately acknowledged. The Association also advocates and negotiates on specific matters on behalf of individual residents, when requested to do so.

The Association manages and administers the Grenada Village Community Hall and tennis courts.

The Association's prime objective is to provide the residents of the Village with an officially recognised representative body that combines and works with the local municipal authorities and other organisations, for the betterment and overall interest of the Grenada Village community.

The Association's specific objectives and goals include the following:

To identify, represent and advocate for the local community interest and to ensure that these interests are fully recognised and appropriately acknowledged.
To build a strong community and develop community spirit and involvement.
To continually improve the neighbourhood and its facilities and amenities.
To be involved in any City Council planning for the suburb.
To act as a broker between the community and the Council and represent residents interests in specific matters when appropriate.
To be proactive and promote all aspects and features of Grenada Village whenever possible.
To work with other Residents Associatons in matters of common interest.
To contribute and assist in making the overall city a better place for all citizens.
