Neighborhood Matching Grants are coming this month!The goal of the Neighborhood Matching Grant program is to encourage projects that foster civic pride, enhance and beautify neighborhoods, expand citizen involvement, and promote the interests of the Gresham community. To accomplish this goal, the Gresham City Council makes available grant funds to City recognized neighborhood associations on a 50/50 matching basis. The City Council firmly believes that community participation in the Neighborhood Associations is mutually beneficial to all Gresham residents.We have $10k budgeted across all NA's for projects that foster civic pride The 2022/23 application cycle opens April 25, 2022 and closes on May 31, 2022. All grant applications must be submitted to the Office of Neighborhoods & Community Engagement (ONCE) before 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 31, 2022.

Thank you all so much, I need to log off. Thank you for this space!

Is there consideration about providing regular garbage service for those who are camping, to diminish the need for massive cleanup efforts?

That area off Powell that you're bringing up is a PDX issue. We (CoG) check it daily on our side and recently added no RV parking signage in front of the fields. We have to refer people to the City of Portland for the situation outside our jurisdiction.

CVIP's are not activated yet, but the plan is that they will be resuming their role in the community soon.

Thanks for sharing Lori!

Thank you Rick for raising my question out loud.

I am endorsing the urban renewal extension and hope you do also

Thanks everyone. And thanks Mary for inviting me. Have a good evening.

I have another neighborhood association meeting that just started at 7pm I need to hop onto. Have a great week everyone!

Thank you MIchael - Appreciate you acting as our tech.

Good idea for signs to help slow down. We did a sign “tag” in our last neighborhood to keep the signs moving to people’s right of way so cars don’t ignore it after a couple days in the same spot. Once you are ‘tagged’ you move it to another neighbor after 2 days ;)

bedtime! goodnight
