Adopted by the Council, Resolution No. 2017-04 establishing the amount of community assistance funding is a maximum of twenty-five percent (25%) of the prior year’s General Fund’s Net Change in Fund Balance using year end estimates established during the last quarter of each fiscal year, not to exceed $160,000 during each budget year.
PLEASE NOTE: Organizations can only apply to and receive funding from one of these programs, Grants-in-Aid or Homeless Services, not both. Please apply only for the funding opportunity which best aligns with your organization’s efforts and financial need.
