AMENDMENT

Finance Committee · 2026-09-15 · agenda_item

This item concerns an amendment to clarify appropriation language for the Eastside Community Grants Program. The program is planned to receive a total of $7,700,083.80. This includes $3,963,436.80 already set aside in the fiscal year 25/26 budget and an additional $3,736,647 for the fiscal year 26/27 budget. The amendment will also waive a requirement for the grant appropriation to be in the Mayor’s proposed budget. This is an early stage in the public process, as the item is pending review by the Finance Committee. The project involves initial grant cycles, which could lead to opportunities for businesses involved in community development, grant administration, and financial services. Reaching out now, before specific grant awards are made, could provide an advantage.
