Its residents reportedly formed a neighborhood association under the name of Shannon Estates Neighborhood Association (SENA). However, the website no longer exists, so it isn't clear whether SENA still exists or not.[2]

In the Spring of 2016, Elm Thicket/North Park, including Shannon Estates, was included in Dallas' Neighborhood Plus Plan. Adopted in 2015, Neighborhood Plus is a citywide neighborhood revitalization plan for the City of Dallas to alleviate poverty, fight blight, attract and retain the middle class, increase homeownership and enhance rental options.[3]
