Neighbourhood Power is a program aimed at making our community and neighbourhoods great places to live. It is a program where you and your neighbours can make a difference to your community.
The program encourages groups of people within a neighbourhood to identify projects or activities they would like to see happen that would make their neighbourhood a better place.
Projects may be supported by a matching grant.
A matching grant is a partnership between the council and the neighbourhood group that supports community building projects by providing a cash match to community contributions of volunteer time, professional services, materials and/or cash.
Based on a model practiced successfully in the city of Seattle, Neighbourhood Power helps to provide an environment where people can develop and strengthen the neighbourhoods in which they live.
