City of Cambridge Participatory Budgeting

Many thanks to everyone who submitted an idea for the 2017 Participatory Budgeting cycle!  We received a record 608 ideas during June and July, beating last year's total of 548.

Some of the most creative ideas included a multigenerational accessible tree house and an air-cleaning “jade chain” of moss walls with built-in benches.  You can explore all of the submitted ideas through the map below:

The next step in the process is for 50+ volunteer Budget Delegates to review and research the 608 submitted ideas and develop 20 final proposals for the PB ballot in December.  Stay tuned for updates about the Budget Delegates and their work!
