Accounts instructions, the City is appropriating an estimated $250,000 of funds which <br /> represent an estimate of the loan arrangement with a number of the participating <br /> homeowners. <br /> • NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS: We are proposing an additional $100,000 for small <br /> scale, neighborhood park improvement projects with this appropriation bill. This <br /> proposed appropriation will be added to the $160,000 already appropriated for 1995 <br /> for a total of$260,000 for small scale park projects. <br /> • POLICE/YOUTH SUMMER RECREATION AND EDUCATION PROGRAM: We <br /> are proposing that $60,000 be appropriated for 1995 to continue the highly successful <br /> police/youth recreation program initiated in 1994. Once again the police would join <br /> with other community organizations to deliver the services at locations such as the <br /> Boys and Girls Club and LaSalle Recreation Center. <br /> • NEIGHBORHOOD SUMMER YOUTH PROGRAM: This is a new program that <br /> would bring together young people, adults, and not-for-profit organizations within a <br /> neighborhood to develop and implement small-scale youth recreation, education, or <br /> neighborhood improvement programs. This appropriation of $30,000 would be used <br /> to make small grants of up to $2,000 per group for a variety of neighborhood-based <br /> proposals. <br /> With this appropriation bill we would also continue a number of projects such as the police <br /> neighborhood walking beats and the residential security program. In addition, we are <br /> proposing several new programs and projects such as the Workforce Diversity Initiative <br /> (WDI) Neighborhood Employment Outreach and the Healthy Community Initiative (HCI) <br /> comprehensive plan project. We will be making a full presentation on all aspects of the <br /> Good Neighbors/Good Neighborhoods Initiative at a later date. <br /> Should you have any questions or require additional information, please call me at 235-9371. <br /> We look forward to continuing our joint effort to fund and support this neighborhood <br /> improvement program. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Ap‘fkr,// <br /> on R.
