PARTICIPATORY BUDGETING
We are thrilled to launch Participatory Budgeting (PB) in Willowdale this spring allowing community members to decide how City funds are allocated for capital improvements.
Tentative PB Neighbourhoods:
2024 - Newtonbrook West/Willowdale West
2025 - West Lansing/Avondale
2026 - Willowdale East/Newtonbrook East
Potential Ideas:
Park Benches
Park Lighting
Pollinator Gardens
Adult Fitness Equipment
Ping-Pong Tables and more!
Your ideas could become a reality! Each idea will be reviewed by City staff for feasibility and cost analysis. Then, everyone will vote on how the funding is allocated!
We are grateful for the support of Councillors Carroll and Moise who have successfully implemented PB in their respective wards.
Here is a tentative timeline for our Participatory Budgeting journey with both in-person and online engagement sessions.
