The Corridors Commission, which oversees the grant program, encourages projects such as beautification, litter awareness and clean-ups, and repairs of dilapidated neighborhood features. This is an opportunity to enhance a well-traveled roadway in the city and improve your neighborhood’s entrance.
There are 32 eligible corridors, and grant proposals must be for project locations that are on or directly adjacent to a corridor. Applications should be for improvements on publicly-owned property or common area community-owned properties that benefit the whole corridor. Consider the following activities for your grant proposal:
- physical improvements for public or community property;
- activities to plan, promote, or finance voluntary clean-ups and neighborhood improvement efforts;
- activities to enhance the beauty of corridors by the removal and replacement of dead or diseased trees;
- litter awareness, prevention and cleanup activities.
