A
A
B
I
work
with
neighborhood
associations,
I
have
Grant
programs
which
we're
going
to
talk
about
today.
I
run
the
residence
Academy
for
to
teach
residents
about
city
government
I.
Do
a
lot
of
community
outreach,
so
that's
largely
what
it
is
is
being
the
face
of
our
department
for
the
community
great
and
which
department
is
that
housing.
A
And
neighborhood
development:
okay,
great
perfect,
so
you
mentioned
grants.
We
have
three
specific
grants
that
are
coming
to
be
available
to
folks
right
now,
Each
of
which
they
can
apply
for,
but
let's
just
break
them
out
one
by
one
I
understand
we
have
the
neighborhood
Improvement
Grants
the
small
and
simple
grants,
and
then
the
cleanup
grants.
So,
let's,
let's
just
start
at
the
beginning,
with
the
neighborhood
Improvement
Grants.
What
what
can
you
accomplish
if
you
apply
for
that
kind
of
Grant
and
receive.
B
It
okay
so
this
year,
actually
we
have
some
exciting
changes
to
this
program.
Traditionally
it
has
been
just
for
physical
Improvement,
which
includes
public
art.
Now
we
are
expanding
it
to
be
more
Community,
Building
types
of
Grants,
so
that
could
include
events
or
other
programs,
leadership,
training
capacity,
building
for
neighborhood
associations,
so
I'm
very
excited
about
that
it'll
be
an
opportunity
for
people
to
come
together
more
in
community
to
build
our
organizations
and
do
the
kind
of
neighborly
types
of
things
that
we
want.
We
want
to
encourage.
B
So
this
is
a
capital
Grant,
so
our
minimum
budget
for
this
is
eleven
hundred
dollars
minimum.
That's
a
thousand
dollar
Grant
with
a
ten
percent
match
from
the
neighborhood.
So
there
are
larger
grants.
We
don't
have
a
cap
on
the
maximum,
but
we
do
have
a
total
budget
of
thirty
thousand
dollars
this
year.
Okay,.
B
There
could
be
fewer
larger.
Yes,
it
depends
on
what
kind
of
applications
we
get.
Last
year
we
were
able
to
fully
fund
all
three
that
we
received
with
some
money
left
over
the
year
before
that
we
had
seven
and
we
had
to
pair
them
down
in
order
to
be
able
to
fund
everyone
at
least
partially,
so
it
this
can
range
from
putting
a
neighborhood
sign
at
the
entrance
to
the
neighborhood.
To
tell
everybody
who
you
are,
it
can
be
benches
in
the
community.
B
We
had
a
neighborhood
a
couple
of
years
ago,
who
had
mostly
older
residents,
and
they
put
a
number
of
benches
in
we've-
had
lots
of
improvements
in
our
Parks
neighborhoods
that
have
Parks
so
whether
it's
playground,
equipment
native
plantings,
ways
of
communicating
in
terms
of
kiosks
for
information
sharing
in
that
sort
sort
of
thing.
So
there's
lots
of
opportunities
and,
as
I
said
now
this
year,
for
the
first
time,
we
have
these
more
community-based
grants
where
we
will
actually
fund
events
and
programs,
as
well
as
physical
improvements.
B
So
the
small
and
simple
Grant
is,
as
the
name
implies,
a
very
quick
and
easy
application.
It
does
not
have
a
neighborhood
match
component
and
the
maximum
Grant
per
neighborhood
per
year
is
500.
There
are
two
basic
categories
under
that
umbrella.
One
of
them
is
more
general
for
events
or
workshops,
or
some
small
project
that
you
want
to
accomplish.
The
other
one
is
specifically
for
the
removal
of
invasive
plants
from
the
neighborhood
and
that
can
also
include
replacement
with
native
plants.
B
B
Grant
this
one
is
my
favorite.
This
is
a
lot
of
fun.
It's
a
Saturday
morning,
most
of
the
hand
staff
will
be
there.
We
do
all
the
logistics
and
the
neighborhood
provides
volunteers.
The
best
way
to
get
an
application
approved
is
to
show
us
you
are
committed
to
the
project.
Neighborhoods
or
neighbors
are
going
to
participate.
You
have
lots
of
volunteers
ready
to
work.
What
we
focus
on
collecting
is
trash.
Hazardous
materials
tires
scrap
metal.
We
also
have
either
a
wood,
chipper
or
some
means
of
collecting
brush
and
limbs.
