The City received 19 applications requesting more than $215,000, making the selection process incredibly competitive. We are grateful to every resident and neighborhood group that submitted an idea, as well as the community reviewers and City staff who helped evaluate the proposals.
Awarded projects will now move into final City coordination, including any necessary scope revisions, site approvals, permits, purchasing, and engineering review.
Congratulations to the selected neighborhoods! We look forward to seeing these resident-led ideas become visible improvements throughout Terre Haute.
