  • Click Here to review the City of Evanston Rulebook

    Evanston, IL
    Other

    The City of Evanston's 2022/2023 Participatory Budgeting Rulebook establishes procedures for a democratic process in which residents directly decide how to spend public funds. In 2021, the Evanston City Council allocated $3 million in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for this participatory budgeting program, with a focus on engaging under-resourced residents. The rulebook was developed by a Steering Committee and Leadership Committee comprising representatives selected to ensure representation across all nine wards, races, genders, and ages, along with delegates from the League of Women Voters, Evanston Arts Center, and Northwestern University's Center for Civic Engagement. The document serves as a living guide tailored to Evanston's community needs and will be continuously improved throughout the participatory process.
