When plans were being made to locate Hull's sewage treatment plant at the base of Allerton Hill, it was the Point Allerton Associaton that marshalled residents to oppose it. When the City of Boston was burning refuse on barges anchored near Boston Lighthouse, blanketing our shoreline with debris and the hill with smoke, it was the association that coordinated a protest at the Massachusetts statehouse, convincing Boston to burn its trash elsewhere.
The Point Allerton Association has a proud history of advocating for the people of Allerton Hill, and we're committed to continuing that tradition. Here are some of the issues currently impacting our residents that the PAA believes are worth fighting for.

Like a good many Hull streets, Allerton roads are in deplorable shape. When homeowners complain, the response can be ho-hum. But when backed by an association, people listen.
The cove area, below the bluffs of Allerton, becomes a catch-all for trash washing in from the Atlantic. Each year, Allerton Hill residents volunteer to gather it up so the town can haul it away.
When Allerton Hill became a target for new flight paths out of Logan Airport, Hull Neighbors for Quiet Skies was formed to fight against these noisy "skyways". Find HNQS on Facebook.
The seawall at the tip of Point Allerton is falling apart and, by law, only the state's DCR can fix it. A group of Allerton residents, dedicated to seeing the seawall rebuilt, can be found on Facebook.
