SL4B staff recommend five neighborhood projects, board signals support to add Sugar Creek path
Summary
Staff recommended five FY26 SL4B neighborhood grants (total SL4B requests $279,000) including playgrounds, a perimeter wall and a canopy; Director Vigas urged adding Sugar Creek pedestrian paths for safety and the board signaled support, with staff noting the addition would slightly exceed the $300,000 allocation but could use reserve funds.
Staff presented the FY26 Fostering Unique Neighborhoods grant program and recommended funding five applications while declining two others; board discussion followed and members signaled support for adding Sugar Creek pedestrian paths for safety reasons.
Anna, staff lead for the program, told the joint workshop that the SL4B program funds projects that "empower community groups to revitalize and create unique places" and outlined eligibility and scoring criteria.
