Welcome to 
Neighborhood Programs 
 
The Office of Neighborhood Programs was established in 2000 by the City Council to encourage partnerships, strengthen Chandler's neighborhoods and build strong community relationships.

Neighborhood Grant Program
The 2010 Neighborhood Grant Program is now open to all Chandler neighborhoods that participate in the Neighborhood Registration Program. If you are not sure if your neighborhood is registered or if you would like to register your neighborhood, you may call 480-782-4351 for assistance.

The Neighborhood Grant Program is open all year and offers the following three grants:

· Traditional Neighborhood Grants provide funds up to $5,000 once every five years
· HOA Matching Grants provide funds up to $5,000 once every five years
· Annual Jump Start Grant provide funds up to $500 once a year

Neighborhood Grants can not be combined. Grant projects are evaluated and selected based on a series of criteria including neighborhood benefit, resident involvement and financial need.

Neighborhood Advisory Committee (NAC)
The City of Chandler's Neighborhood Advisory Committee (NAC) is a seven member Mayor and Council appointed committee. The NAC holds meetings the second Tuesday of every month at 6:30 p.m. in the Neighborhood Resources Division Office located at 55 North Arizona Place, Suite 310.

In 2010 and as part of the committee's commitment to the community, the NAC will be holding a series of Public Outreach meetings to listen to residents speak out on the various challenges facing their neighborhoods and community.

The NAC Public Outreach Meetings will be held every other month at various locations throughout Chandler. Continue to check our web page for information on upcoming meeting locations, dates, and time.

The first NAC Public outreach meeting will be held on February 9, 2010 at Humphrey Elementary School cafeteria located at 125 S. 132nd St. beginning at 6:30 p.m. The major cross streets are Cooper Rd. and Chandler Blvd. Mayor and City Council have been invited to kick-off this first meeting as well as a student representative from the Mayor's Youth Commission.

NAC meetings are public and all Chandler Residents are welcome to attend.
