Funding is available to eligible nonprofit organizations, community groups, residents, and small businesses that demonstrate alignment with community goals.

Eligible activities may include planning, equipment upgrades, and outreach efforts that help advance environmentally responsible practices throughout the city.
Additional grant streams support housing, infrastructure, and social service projects that primarily benefit low- to moderate-income residents, often in coordination with broader federal or regional programs. Eligible projects are expected to demonstrate measurable impact, long-term value, and clear alignment with community priorities.
Overall, this city’s grant portfolio is designed to promote equitable access to resources, strengthen organizational effectiveness, foster neighborhood cohesion, encourage economic opportunity, and support resilient, vibrant community outcomes across the municipality.
