Essential

The idea submission period for Cycle 4 of The People’s Money has ended, but you can still explore all the ideas New Yorkers shared!

Below, you’ll find the ideas that were submitted by residents across the city, both online and in Idea Generation Workshops. Use the filters to sort by date, borough, or category, and get inspired by the ideas your neighbors proposed — you’ll be voting on some of them this spring!

Idea Eligibility Criteria:

  • It must be a program or service, not something that needs building or fixing (like repairs or construction).

  • It should solve a community problem without needing new laws or more City staff.

  • It needs to have enough information so the CEC can understand the idea.

  • It must respect everyone’s rights.
