Mon, 01/30/2012
The Neighborhood Projects Fund can be used for projects valued up to $90K to fund park or street improvements, such as playground improvements, pathway upgrades, tennis court repaving, accessibility improvements, traffic circles, traffic calming, and school zone speed limit signs, etc. This funding source is not recommended for sidewalks, as sidewalks are typically more expensive than this funding allows.
The deadline to apply for this funding is Wednesday, February 1.
The Neighborhood Projects Fund is made up of two funding sources – Cumulative Reserve Funds (CRF) and Neighborhood Street Funds (NSF).
