MONEY FOR KENSINGTON PROJECTS, IF WE SUGGEST IT AND VOTE FOR IT

Kensington Participatory Budgeting Assembly
Thursday, October 16th, 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

For three years, Kensington residents have suggested winning projects for the neighborhood, paid for with Participatory Budgeting (PB) funds. This Thursday, Kensington residents will meet at P.S. 230 at 1 Albemarle Road to collaborate on ideas for projects that the neighborhood needs. RSVP here.

In previous years, our City Councilmember Brad Lander made $1 million of his budget available for PB projects. This year, the amount will be $1.5 million.
Aside from this one neighborhood assembly, Councilmember Lander has organized issue-based assemblies.
