Neighborhood Partnership Grant
FY2019 Neighborhood Partnership Grant Program for Greater Frenchtown/Southside CRA
Funded by the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and administered by Neighborhood Affairs, the Neighborhood Partnership Grant provides grants to emerging and established neighborhood and homeowners associations (HOAs) in the Greater Frenchtown/Southside CRA District. Neighborhoods within the geographic boundaries of this district are encouraged to apply for up to $5,000 in funding to help improve their neighborhood’s physical and/or public safety conditions. The grant funds and accompanying technical assistance provided by Neighborhood Affairs are designed to empower neighborhood groups to effectively plan and implement solutions to neighborhood concerns.
A continuation of the program initiated in FY2018, grants are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis to qualified applicants who have provided a completed grant application and whose proposed project meets the eligibility criteria. Total funding of $50,000 has been provided for this grant.
Applications may be submitted electronically to John.Baker@talgov.com, or mailed/hand delivered to John Baker, Smith-Williams Service Center, 2295 Pasco St., Tallahassee, 32310. Only one application and supporting documents per neighborhood will be accepted.
