Create funding program for neighborhoods without formal councils or homeowner associations

Neighborhood Funding EquityGovernance

In Plain English

Richmond received a $750,000 state grant to strengthen neighborhood connections after COVID-19. The city gave $15,000 each to neighborhoods with formal councils, but 21 of Richmond's 41 neighborhoods lack councils and received nothing. If approved, staff creates a framework so all neighborhoods can access city funding and mailing services for community events and improvements.
