Douglass Park Participatory Budgeting Ballot

Douglass Park Community Members - tell us which Participatory Budgeting projects are most important to you in the form below.

Participatory Budgeting (PB) is a democratic process where community members directly decide how public funds are spent on improvements in their park. For this Douglass Park PB cycle, a total of $189,961 is available for capital projects.

This ballot uses ranked voting, which means you can rank projects in order of preference rather than selecting just one. Your top-ranked project is your first choice, followed by your second, third, and so on. Ranking more projects helps ensure your voice is reflected, even if your top choice cannot be fully funded. Please review each proposal carefully and rank the projects you would most like to see funded. Projects will be selected based on community rankings and available funds.

Your vote helps ensure that investments in Douglass Park reflect the needs and priorities of the community.

To provide input on these projects, you must live or go to school within the following boundaries of the Douglass Park Community:
I-290 to 26th Street, Western Avenue to Kostner Avenue.
