The Neighborhood Steering Committee will guide the whole process, helping and guiding our neighbors to success and ensuring that when our work is done, the story is told clearly to support other neighborhoods in the future.
The Neighborhood Steering Committee will be majority Slavic Village residents. PB CLE is seeking approximately 15 committed residents and stakeholders, aged 16 and older to join the Neighborhood Steering Committee. At the end of service, members of the Neighborhood Steering Committee in good standing will receive a stipend of $1,000.
PB CLE IS BACK!
While democratic institutions weaken before our eyes, PB CLE believes democracy is worth fighting for. And we’re launching that fight right here in Cleveland through our People’s Budget pilot.
We’re launching the People’s Budget pilot, a six-month program in which residents of one Cleveland neighborhood will propose ideas and make decisions on how to allocate $100,00 to projects in their neighborhood through a participatory budgeting voting process.
After a four-month selection process that involved more than 150 people and nominations to host the pilot from neighborhoods all over the city, in 2025 PB CLE announced that the pilot will take place in Slavic Village.
We thank residents from the following neighborhoods who nominated their neighborhoods to host the pilot: Mt. Pleasant, Woodland Hills, Glenville, Lee Seville, Lee Harvard, Central/Kinsman, Buckeye, Union Miles, Detroit Shoreway/Cudell, and Edgewater.
