Fund your ideas for neighborhood improvements

From now until Feb. 27th, you can submit an application with the city to request funding for small-scale (up to $90K per project) street or parks improvements. Some examples of funded projects in Ballard over the last couple years include traffic circles, sidewalk repair and speed bumps. One of the largest projects is soon to get underway: sidewalk upgrades and repair along Ballard Ave. Construction will begin on Monday, February 9 — resulting in some pedestrian detours and parking restrictions in Old Ballard — and is expected to last 4-5 weeks. More information on the project here.
