EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

Per the Measure P Ordinance, the City in conjunction with the PRAC shall adopt a new definition of highest-need neighborhoods every three years after conducting a public process. The highest-need neighborhoods definition is used to determine where 50% of Measure P proceeds in expenditure categories 1 and 2 shall be made available for the purpose of improving and maintaining safe, clean neighborhood parks and playgrounds and for the purpose of new neighborhood parks, senior and youth recreation facilities. This workshop will provide an overview of the highest-need neighborhood definition update including an overview of the process, public outreach and analysis to establish the highest-need neighborhood definition to be used for the time period spanning January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2027.
