Community Improvement Projects

The Neighborhood Committee is responsible for recommending Community Improvement Projects (CIP) to the Venice Neighborhood Council Board for funding. The VNC uses an innovative process for funding Community Improvement Projects. In the 2010 Fiscal Year $20,000 was awarded to eleven projects.

$13,200 is available for projects to be completed between February 1, 2012 and April 15, 2012. Proposals for these CIP Projects were evaluated by the Neighborhood Committee on January 4, 2012; the ranking and recommended funding amounts are posted on our website at: http://venicenc.org/2012_CIP_Ranking.

The VNC Board voted to adopt the Neighborhood Committee’s recommendations at it’s Board Meeting on January 17, 2012.
