Community DesignThe Community Design Program is intended to provide financial assistance to local government agencies that seek to implement physical development that is consistent with SACOG's Blueprint Principles. Approximately every two years, SACOG accepts applications for projects from cities, counties, transit districts and air districts from Sacramento, Sutter, Yolo and Yuba Counties. (Placer and El Dorado Counties have their own programs that are independent of Community Design). The Blueprint Principles are:
On March 20, 2008, the SACOG Board of Directors awarded 12 projects for $18.365 million in funding for the 2007-09 programming cycle. SACOG received 19 applications seeking nearly $50 million. Two committees reviewed the applications and provided the same list of recommendations and amounts to the SACOG Board, which approved the list as submitted. The selection process is described in the staff report to the Board and can be downloaded from the box below. A list of awarded projects, project descriptions and their applications may also be viewed from links in the box below. Descriptions of past awarded projects and their applications from the prior two funding cycles may also be viewed. The next and fourth round of Community Design funding will be for the 2009-2011 cycle, and application guidelines are anticipated to be released in the second half of 2009.
