Applications can be submitted from January 1 to January 15, 2024, with the deadline set for 5 PM on the final day. Interested applicants can send their proposals via email to [email protected], through traditional mail, or by delivering them in person at the Community Services Office.
Application Process and Support
The City encourages engaged citizens to apply, providing multiple channels for submission. Jaime D. Perkins, who plays a crucial role in the grant application process, is available to answer questions and offer guidance.
