The People’s Money is New York City’s annual citywide participatory budgeting program focused on expense projects.
All New York City residents 11 and older, regardless of citizenship status, can vote in the People's Money to help decide how to spend part of the city’s budget.
Each resident will vote on their home borough ballot. You may vote only one time, but you can vote for as many projects as you want.
The ballots are available in English and 12 additional languages.
More information, including the list of proposed projects, is available online at www.participate.nyc.gov.
