Neighborhood Investment

Investing in Boise's Neighborhoods

The Neighborhood Investment Program is a partnership between the City of Boise and neighborhood associations in good standing.

The program funds capital construction projects to help enrich the lives of our residents, enhance the identity and quality of life in our neighborhoods, and encourage a strong sense of community.

Movement for Everyone

A more connected community not only creates better, and safer neighborhoods, it also reduces transportation costs, improves air quality and public health. Project applications for Fiscal Year 2026 centered around movement for everyone, with a focus on bicycle and pedestrian safety, are highly recommended.

Eligible Projects

Eligible projects will contribute to strong and healthy neighborhoods through resident involvement and engagement in the identification, planning, and implementation processes. Funded projects will provide a public benefit to all members of the community.

Applications for the 2027 Neighborhood Investment Program accepted November 1, 2025 - January 31, 2026.

General Requirements

The city’s registered neighborhood associations are eligible to apply for project funding. Individuals, community groups, or schools must work with their neighborhood association to apply. All projects must be located on public property.

All applicants must attend a Neighborhood Investment Workshop and receive Project Manager approval prior to application submission.
