Boston Lets You Vote on $2M | Boston News

Boston’s giving residents an extra week—until August 7th—to submit ideas for how to spend $2 million in city funds through its participatory budgeting program. Focus on local, one-time projects within city jurisdiction (no state-level stuff like transit), with an equity lens to benefit underserved communities. Just a few sentences needed—no finance degree required. Past winners funded immigrant legal aid, farmers markets, and rat-proof trash cans. After submissions close, the city will review, host community workshops in fall, and put final proposals to a citywide vote January 15–February 15. If you’ve got a vision for your neighborhood or the city, now’s your chance to make it happen. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
