Grand Rapids, MI Participatory Budgeting ARPA Campaign
Local officials and community groups created multiple channels for ideas on how to use $2 million in ARPA funds. An online portal allows any resident to suggest projects that benefit the city's three wards. Residents can also submit ideas by calling 311 or texting "pb" to 73224. Eligible projects fit one or more of eight categories including essential worker incentives and healthy childhood environments. A public vote will select projects for implementation starting in late 2022.
