Increase appropriation in the General Fund (GF) in the Legislative Department (LD) by $20,000.
DISCUSSION
The Sixth District Council Office has created a robust Summer program geared towards community outreach and civic engagement. Through a series of community events, the Council Office will better connect residents of all ages to city services, provide information on healthy living, and promote neighborhood pride and ownership. Programming efforts include four mobile office hours engaging neighbors, businesses, and patrons on economic and business development, nuisance and litter abatement and neighborhood beautification. The Council Office will also coordinate a "Six Summer Clean-Ups in the Sixth District" initiative, a food insecurity program, and a partnership with Parks, Recreation & Marine for local concerts that will host non-profit partners to provide social services to the community.
This appropriation will provide the funding needed for permitting, marketing, rentals and, miscellaneous fees that arise from such programming.
