Our general meeting is going to look a little different this month. With the launch of the city’s Participatory Budgeting Pilot, we are using our July Meeting to collect ideas for how the city should spend a portion of its capital budget.

How it works:

• Each city council district will be allocation $1 million for capital projects (think physical changes like community gardens, parklets, crosswalks) that residents will choose how to spend.

• Community members attending this meeting will get together to answer the question: if you were in control of a million dollars of the city budget, what types of public projects would you have them build in your neighborhood?

• Your input goes directly to the city and a team of regular community members like you to turn those ideas into project proposals.

• Once the proposals are developed, you get to vote on which proposal(s) will actually be built in your area.

Join us to have a say in what gets built in your neighborhood!
