The first thing I'd suggest is a collaborative UX design process. Survey some people who've used Neighbourly, past and present, and find out what the pleasure and pain points are. Then customise the tech around the insights from that.

Among existing tech that could be used for a hyperlocal social service, maybe something like Hometown?

Or maybe Bonfire Community, or a @bonfire flavour specifically for the purpose?
