Participatory Budgeting: Idea collection

Help shape your community by deciding how public funds are spent. Participatory Budgeting (PB) allows residents to propose ideas for projects that benefit their neighborhoods. These projects must be one-time capital expenses, meaning they involve physical improvements or purchases rather than ongoing services or programs. Examples include park upgrades, public art installations, or community spaces.
