Email from New York City Council- District 18 I’m looking for 30 budget delegates ready to step up and help move ideas from concept to reality! Hi Neighbor, If you care about how one million dollars is going to be spent in our neighborhood, this is your moment. Through Participatory Budgeting, residents help decide which community projects get built. Right now, I’m looking for 30 budget delegates who are ready to step up and help move ideas from concept to reality. Some proposals are already viable. Others are close—but they need committed delegates to help refine them and get them across the finish line. If you want your idea, or an idea you believe in, to be on the final ballot, we need you involved. Join me at my office for an in-person Budget Delegate working meeting: Date: Wednesday, January 21, 2025 Time: 7:00 PM Location: District Office | 778 Castle Hill Avenue At this meeting, we will: Review current project ideas Work through what’s needed to make them ballot-ready Walk through the timeline leading up to final ballot decisions in mid-February Share details about our PB Expo on March 14 and voting week Register During voting week (April 11-19) there will be 10 voting sites, and delegates will help coordinate ballot pickup and drop-off to ensure every vote is counted. If you’re passionate about what gets built in our community and want to make sure YOU decide how this funding will be used, I'd love for you to work with us. I hope to see you on January 21. Who’s with me? In Community, Hon.
