	Topology glossary
		A neighbourhood of a point p is a neighbourhood of the 1-point set {p}.
		A punctured neighbourhood of a point p is a neighbourhood of p, minus p.
		A partition of unity is a set of continuous functions from a space to [0,1] such that any point has a neighbourhood where all but a finite number are identically zero, and the sum of all them at every point is 1.

	Scientific Staff - Jim C. Hiley - Agricultural Production Profiles
		These pressures are at the root of a widely held perception throughout the municipality that the viability of farming, its primary economic and environmental driver, as well as the rural character of the County are at risk in the longer term.
		Neighbourhood agricultural profiles identify those types of operations that are currently viable; information that can be integrated into the existing political and administrative processes through the AVS.
		Comparative analysis of the profiles indicates that those neighbourhoods that are the foundation of agricultural production within Red Deer County face a challenging future in the context of competition from non-agricultural land uses for a finite resource base.

	Toronto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The resulting cultural diversity is reflected in the numerous ethnic neighbourhoods of the city.
		The Toronto financial industry is based on Bay Street, the country's equivalent to Wall Street in New York.
		Due to an increasing municipal population and a housing boom that ran through the late 1990s and early 2000s, many of the neighbourhoods in the inner suburbs experienced accelerated gentrification, with rapidly rising home prices, an influx of wealthier residents, and a boom in upscale businesses to service them.

	Locally compact space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In topology and related branches of mathematics, a topological space is called locally compact if, roughly speaking, each small portion of the space looks like a small portion of a compact space.
		To be precise, a topological space X is locally compact if and only if every point has a local base of compact neighborhoods, i.e.
		The last example contrasts with the Euclidean spaces in the previous section; to be more specific, a Hausdorff topological vector space is locally compact if and only if it is finite-dimensional (in which case it is a Euclidean space).

		The project, which started in 2002 and recently completed its pilot phase, is based on the idea that volunteerism represents a significant and underutilized asset that can contribute to urban development, strengthen civil society and local governments, and foster participatory local governance.
		Since that time, schools were rehabilitated, the fisherman’s beach cleaned and developed, local monuments and parks refurbished, a book drive for low-income students held, and a number of local associations—fishermen, artisans, neighbourhood groups—received professional trainings to update their skills and learn new technologies.
		Based in Bonn, Germany, UNV is the UN organization that supports sustainable human development globally through the promotion of volunteerism, including the mobilization of volunteers.

	Sustainable neighbourhoods: the role of housing markets and community assets
		Having started from a similar base, the neighbourhoods are developing in different ways, which the study identifies as 'sustainable', 'regenerating' or 'declining'.
		A string of responses to questions about moving – 'to a bigger house, or better neighbourhood, or to be near family or friends' – suggests that, even in the poorest neighbourhoods, residents feel they have a degree of control over their lives.
		On the other hand, these new residents tend to be critical of the neighbourhood environment and socially distanced from the tenants of social housing nearby.

	Saskatchewan Assessment Manual (1998) - Chapter 2
		The infrastructure adjustment may be applied to account for any gain or loss in value, that is not accounted for in the neighbourhood base land rate, due to the existence or lack of infrastructure, such as survey, street, sewer, water, sidewalk, and curb and gutter services.
		Where the neighbourhood base land rate is determined on the basis of fully service land, the adjustment for lack of infrastructure shall be determined using the infrastructure rate schedule.
		Where the neighbourhood base land rate is determined on the basis of land that is not fully serviced, the adjustment for lack of infrastructure shall be determined by prorating the infrastructure rate schedule so that the existing services total 1.0.

		NGO efforts to formalise the groups as rural associations in order to strengthen their bargaining power, and inclusion of income generating activities in project activities were examples studied.
		Since the actual implementation of activities is often in the same neighbourhoods this could be a useful basis for making support more coherent.
		The demands made on local communities and mobilisers in particular in the name of community participation, is endorsed by all sectors but it is not clearly defined how it is related to service provision and public investments.

	community centers (centres) and community associations: : their history, theory, development and practice
		As the work in the centers (centres) developed, there was a growing call to have buildings that could be used all day, were designed for their purpose, and that were not constrained by the various requirements of schooling.
		Add to this Mary Parker Follett's (1918) and others belief in role of group and neighbourhood activities in sustaining a vibrant democracy the shape of the project was clear.
		When Alan Twelvetrees returned to the experience of British community associations in a study of democracy and the neighbourhood in 1985, he argued that while community associations as neighbourhood associations with a generalist rather than a specialist brief may have lost their way somewhat in the 1950s and 1960s they still held considerable potential.

		Construct a profile based upon an alignment and consensus structure, this can be used to scan a database and append sequences to the alignment.
		It is based on a probabilistic model-construction called a phylo-SCFG and exploits the characteristic differences of the substitution process in stem-pairing and unpaired regions to make its predictions.

		In the old communistic household, which comprised many couples and their children, the task entrusted to the women of managing the household was as much a public and socially necessary industry as the procuring of food by the men.
		For, to our three social reformers, the bourgeois world, based upon the principles of these philosophers, is quite as irrational and unjust, and, therefore, finds its way to the dust-hole quite as readily as feudalism and all the earlier stages of society.
		Communitarianism is the social/political current which emphasises the strengthening and importance of community or neighbourhood — a kind of property-owners’ collectivism.

		Then we can separate x and A by neighbourhoods: for each a in A, let U(''x'') and V(''a'') be disjoint neighbourhoods containing x and a, respectively.
		An equivalent definition of Compact spaces, sometimes useful, is based on the finite intersection property.
		The definition based on open coverings has surpassed it by allowing many useful results that could be proven about metric spaces using the old definition to be proven in general.

		It does cause jurisdictional problems and tends to harm the city core, which is often left with the lowest socioeconomic group, a declining tax base, and neighbourhoods impoverished to the point of destitution.
		At the same time, it will become critical to devise strategies to lessen the impact of the loss of industrial tax base at the city core and to alleviate conditions for those left behind in poverty, with no hope of obtaining jobs or of migrating to places where their prospects might be better.
		Of these options, most are unacceptable in any global strategy with a claim to an ethical base or are unenforceable even by the most totalitarian of governments.

	Mayors, Direct Election of: Debatabase - Debate Topics and Debate Motions
		In many towns and cities throughout the world, mayors are directly elected by the citizens, with varying but often considerable power to govern locally on their behalf.
		A town council, made up of separately elected representatives from different neighbourhoods (often called wards in English), usually balances this concentration of power in the hands of one man or woman.
		Until very recently, this model of local government was not used in the UK, where councillors make decisions through a committee system in which the leader of the majority party has the greatest power.

		We will concentrate on finite covers of countable $\aleph_{0}$-categorical structures, and we often describe structures entirely by their automorphism groups, without reference to any particular language (in the $\aleph_{0}$-categorical case this is justified by the Ryll-Nardzewski theorem).
		If $\Omega$ is a set then we regard $\Sym(\Omega)$, the symmetric group on $\Omega$, as a topological group with a base of open sets being given by cosets of pointwise stabilisers of finite subsets of $\Omega$.
		Then the collection of subsets of $A^{}$ of the form $\{ f \in A^{} : f(X) \subseteq S_{k}\}$, where $X$ is a compact subset of $A$ and $k \in {\Bbb N}$, forms a complete system of neighbourhoods of the identity in $A^{*}$ (see Definition 34 of \cite{Pon}).
