The Chappelle Gardens Residents Association (RA) and the Chappelle Community League (CL) are separate community organizations with different roles.
The Residents Association is a mandatory, property-based group for homeowners in Chappelle Gardens — membership comes with owning a home and fees are registered on the title. It operates the Social House and community amenities, offers resident-focused programs, events, and exclusive access to facility features and parks for members.
In contrast, the Chappelle Community League is a voluntary, neighborhood-wide membership organization open to all residents of the broader Chappelle area. League membership is paid by choice, not tied to property ownership, and offers community events, programs, and city-wide benefits like discounts and access to the Community League Wellness Program.
The RA is automatic and fee-based for homeowners in Chappelle Gardens with exclusive amenities, while the Community League is a voluntary community group serving the broader area with wider benefits and social programming.
