The Neighborhood Council Fund is administered by the City Clerk on behalf of Neighborhood Councils (NCs) as
part of the funding program (C.F. 11-1020-S2). It provides funding to certified NCs for operation and neighborhood
improvement purposes designated by each NC. In accordance with Administrative Code Section 22.810.1(g),
money appropriated in the budget each year for certified NCs shall be placed in the Neighborhood Council Fund
for costs related to the functions, operations, and duties of being a certified NC.
If an NC enrolls during a fiscal year, the appropriation is prorated based on the quarter during which the NC became
eligible for funding and upon which its full board has been selected. Any unspent funds remaining in the
Neighborhood Council Fund at the end of the fiscal year will be used to reduce the General Fund appropriation the
following year. NCs have the ability to roll over a non-cumulative maximum of $10,000 in any given fiscal year. As
a result of this roll over process, it is assumed that there will not be any unspent funds to reduce the General Fund
appropriation for 2021-22.
There are currently 99 certified NCs and an appropriation of $3,168,000 is proposed for 2021-22 to provide each
NC with an allocation of $32,000. With an additional $50,000 for translation funding, the total General Fund
appropriation for 2021-22 is $3,218,000.
Total required for 99 NCs and translation: $3,218,000
Estimated Available Balance on July 1: $ -
General Fund Appropriation for 2021-22: $3,218,000
