Where individuals are granted an opportunity to voice their concerns.

Welcome

The City of New York is divided into fifty-nine geographic community districts, served by a local rep. body known as a Community Board. Each Community Board is composed of up to fifty unsalaried individuals who either live in or have an interest in the community, selected to serve on the board by the Borough President or local City Council representatives.

Borough Level

The Community Board meets with Agency Commissioners to discuss budget requests and needs and priorities of the district in an attempt to provide the services and funding needed to improve the conditions and quality of life for the residents in the community.

We are required to submit to the Mayor and City Council capital and expense budget priorities that would be taken into consideration in the formulation of the City's overall budget. Public hearings are also held by the Community Board, the Borough President's Office, and the City Council before the budget is adopted.
