Who Can Apply?
Residents living within the North Central Neighborhood can apply. Proposed projects must be implemented with the neighborhood of residency. All applications must be endorsed by the neighborhood association/organization representing that neighborhood. |

How Will the Projects be Selected?
Applications are reviewed by a volunteer committee of residents (representing applying neighborhoods). This group determines which applications are chosen. Decisions will be based on the projects benefit to the neighborhood, the involvement of residents in carrying out the project and participating in the activity, and whether it is realistic and well-planned.
