ABOUT THE HPCA

The HPCA is a voluntary membership organization established to support and inform the Hyannis Port community.  It is an outgrowth of the Hyannisport Village Improvement Association which dates back to the 1890s.

The initial purpose stated was “to promote civic development and improvement of the community of Hyannisport and for that purpose to acquire, hold and deal in real estate and other property as incidental thereto and do all other things incidental to the foregoing.”

The Hyannisport Boat Pier Company and the West Beach Bathing Company were taken over by the Civic Association also in 1929, transferring their respective shares of stock.

We thank you for your interest and look forward to serving you in the future.

                

BECOME A MEMBER

The Hyannis Port Civic Association was organized by summer residents of Hyannis Port in 1929 with the goal of acquiring and maintaining the Hyannis Port pier and West Beach Club and providing security and other services to make life in our village more pleasant. Our mission has changed little since that time.

Members of the Civic Association must own property or meet residency requirements within the village of Hyannis Port.  Membership entitles you to the use of the pier, is a prerequisite for membership in the West Beach Club, and entitles you to vote at the annual meeting of the Civic Association held every year on or about August 1st. Hyannis Port Civic members pay a Homeowners Assessment for each house along with Membership Dues for individuals and families and Wharfage Fees for boats moored in the Hyannis Port harbor. The Civic Association operates a security service which works closely with the Barnstable Police force to patrol village streets and to deter criminal activity in Hyannis Port.

Although membership is voluntary, most of Hyannis Port’s property owners are members, as are many other residents who are not owners.

Because of the broad base of our community support, the Civic Association has done much to preserve the village’s friendly, close-knit atmosphere.
