Process phases

  • 1. Idea Generation
  • 2. Idea Development
  • 3. Citywide Voting
  • 4. Project Implementation

Welcome to Idea Generation for The People’s Money!


The second cycle of The People's Money has now finished.
 All New Yorkers, ages 11 and older, regardless of immigration status had the opportunity to submit their ideas for how to spend part of the city's budget on projects to address needs in their New York City community. Those ideas were submitted to our Assembly Committees, who over five weeks in January and February decided which projects would go on each borough ballot. Then in May and June New Yorkers were asked to vote on which projects they wanted to fund, those results can be found here external-link(External link) or under the Citywide Voting tab above.

Scroll down to review all the ideas submitted by fellow New Yorkers!


The People's Money uses mayoral expense funding for ideas to fund projects to benefit NYC communities. Projects must be implemented within one year and must be expense funding, examples of which include:  

🟢 Programming, including but not limited to events, fairs, workshops, trainings and classes.

🟢 Expanding or enhancing direct or social services (e.g., after-school programming, food distribution initiatives, etc). 

🟢 Community organizing or awareness and advocacy campaigns. 

🟢 Research studies.

The People’s Money CANNOT fund: 

🔴 Ideas for capital projects involving the construction, reconstruction, acquisition, or installation of a physical public improvement, costing $50,000 or more. This may include everything from buying garbage trucks, reconstructing bridges, and building housing. 

🔴 Ideas that break New York City laws, spread hate or unfair treatment.

🔴 Projects that add to a city agency’s headcount, such as hiring more police officers or sanitation workers.
