City Hall, New York<\/strong> \u2013 Today, Speaker Corey Johnson and the New York City Council announced the voting results and winning proposals of the 2018-2019 Participatory Budgeting cycle. During the voting period, which took place from March 30th<\/sup> until April 7th, more than 118,000 New Yorkers voted to allocate over $39 million in capital funding for locally-developed capital projects across 32 Council Districts in New York City. In addition, Borough President Eric L. Adams also renewed his commitment to the initiative and allocated $1.1 million to various projects in participating Brooklyn Council Member districts.<\/p>\n

There were a total of 552 voting sites located across the five boroughs, and the voting ballot was available in English and 16 other languages. Participants were able to vote online or submit the traditional paper ballot. <\/p>\n

Of the 118,308 votes cast for this cycle, 67% were paper ballots and the remaining 33% was online voting.<\/p>\n

Voting in Participatory Budgeting is open to all residents of participating districts who are 11 years of age and older. The sole identification requirement is proof of residency in the participating council district.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen people become engaged, they can make a difference. Participatory Budgeting is a clear example of civic engagement. Neighbors decide where to spend their money, and they are really the ones who know the needs for their communities. The projects cover a wide array of issues, including improving lighting in NYCHA parks, making upgrades in schools and community centers, creating new playgrounds and planting trees,\u201d said Speaker Corey Johnson<\/strong>. \u201cI applaud everyone who voted. Turnout is so important. I want to thank my colleagues, staff, partners in government and volunteers for participating in this new Participatory Budgeting cycle, and alerting New Yorkers about their right to vote on these budget items. I look forward to another successful cycle next year with even larger turnout.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so proud that District 2\u2019s first ever Participatory Budgeting cycle saw our community get excited about civic engagement, with almost 4,800 votes cast I want to thank the local organizations, budget delegates, district committee members, vote-week volunteers, and District 2 staff that helped make our first cycle such a success. From bus countdown clocks and street resurfacing, to school upgrades throughout District 2, I\u2019m eager to see our winning projects take shape and inspire next year\u2019s project ideas,\u201d said Council Member Carlina Rivera<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the representative of diverse communities, I have seen Participatory Budgeting provide a path to civic engagement for people who are often excluded from the decision-making processes,\u201d said Council Member Adrienne Adams<\/strong>. \u201cHaving power to create proposals and put them on a ballot for a public vote is a powerful tool to bring neighbors together, to bring more transparency to our public funding and to make sure that decisions are in the interest of a broad set of community members. I\u2019m proud to offer District 28 residents the opportunity to decide what they would like to see funded by their own tax dollars through the Participatory Budgeting process. This brings government closer to the people, where it ought to be.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really moved that 32 council districts took part in Participatory Budgeting\u2019s Cycle 8 this year, and I\u2019m especially proud of District 39, where 7,500 people \u2013 the most we\u2019ve ever seen \u2013 made their voices heard by voting in person or on line,\u201d said City Council Member Brad Lander<\/strong>. \u201cThe five expense and four capital projects that won, from a sewing circle for South Asian survivors of domestic violence to a down payment for an elevator at the 7th<\/sup>\u00a0Avenue F\/G station, will benefit so many neighborhoods, parks, schools and community residents. PBNYC is grassroots democracy at its very best: Open to all, for the good of us all.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery year, I look forward to seeing the new and creative ways our community members motivate their neighbors during the participatory budgeting process,\u201d said Council Member Paul Vallone<\/strong>. \u201cHere in Northeast Queens, where we had impressive turnout, voters decided to fund a gymnasium renovation at College Point’s PS 129, a Green Biome project at Bayside High School, and four NYPD security cameras for the District. I’m thrilled that the community has once again overwhelmingly embraced the success of this grassroots effort, and I look forward to continuing to grow the process next year!\u201d<\/p>\n
