Welcome to the PBNYC page for City Council District 38! D38 covers the Brooklyn neighborhoods of Red Hook, Sunset Park, Greenwood Heights and portions of Windsor Terrace, Dyker Heights, and Boro Park, represented by Council Member Alexa Avilés.
Vote week will take place from April 2, 2022 to April 10, 2022.
To vote in participatory budgeting, you must be eligible:
- You must live in the district.
- You promise to only vote once.
- You must be in 6th grade or 11 years old or older.
Residents in District 38 can decide how to spend capital funding.
For Capital funds this will mean that $1 million of Council Member budget allocation that can be used for physical infrastructure projects that benefit the public, cost at least $50,000 and have a lifespan of at least 5 years. For example, projects such as local improvements to schools, parks, libraries, housing, and other public spaces can be funded.
Council Members then submit projects receiving the most votes to be allocated in the budget at adoption in June for the following fiscal year. The projects are then implemented by city agencies.
