MKE Community Impact Fund allocation method

Milwaukee

Summary

The committee is designing how Milwaukee's Community Impact Fund money gets allocated through community proposals. The clock matters: a full package — rulebook, structure, proposal process — is due to the Common Council by November, and members admit the original timeline was too ambitious. Residents can join work groups in a supporting capacity and should watch for outreach materials and an application form on the city website.
