NRP Policy Board

The Neighborhood Revitalization Program (NRP)Policy Board reviews and approves neighborhood organizations' NRP plans and reviews their Community Participation Plan submissions. City Council adopted Resolution 2011R-667, reestablishing the NRP Policy Board in December 2011.

Public Comment - Proposed Change to Plan Modification Process

The Neighborhood Revitalizations Program (NRP) Policy Board has proposed a change to the neighborhood plan modification approval process. NRP processes require actions to be taken in order to modify funding strategies, reallocate funds within approved strategies or the creation of a new strategy. Currently, the Neighborhood and Community Relations (NCR) Department Director has sole discretion to approve or deny these requests. The proposed policy change does the following:

Plan modifications over $100,000 will require the approval of the NRP Policy Board
Plan modifications $100,000 and under will be administratively approved by the NCR Department Director
Authorizes programmatic documents to reflect these changes

Public comment on the proposed changes opened June 10 and closed July 25, 2019. You can read the redlined policy document here.
