Neighborhood Parks Enhancement Program
The City of Phoenix is thrilled to announce the Neighborhood Parks Enhancement Program, made possible by the recently approved
General Obligation (GO) Bond Program. With $1.5 million allocated for minor capital improvements, this initiative will ensure that each council district receives dedicated funds to enhance local parks.
From September 27 to November 8, 2024, eligible neighborhood organizations can submit project proposals to the Parks and Recreation Department. Projects must be located in City of Phoenix parks, and organizations not yet registered can do so online at
https://www.phoenix.gov/nsd/programs/neighborhood-coordination.
Selected projects will be announced in early 2025, with completion scheduled within the GO Bond Program timeframe from 2024 to 2029. Let's work together to enhance our community spaces!
