Sam Presents Checks to Business Districts
Warren Jimenez
At the quarterly Alliance of Portland Neighborhood Business Association (APNBA) meeting, Sam presented grants receipts with their checks. The APNBA Buisness Improvement Grant is a very effective program for improvement in our business districts. This is the reason why Sam advocated to get them an additional $100,000 last year. Here is the list of this year's recipients:
Central Sandy, $2,500 for a business directory.
Division/Clinton, $3,500 for their street fair.
Foster Area, $3900 for park improvements.
Hillsdale Business & Professional, $2,000 for developing the Hillsdale Plaza.
Multnomah village, $3,000 to add flower baskets and update the website.
Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center, $3,000 for programming and documentation to promote cultural organizations.
Portland Mural defense, $1,100 to complete the Russian House Mural.
SMILE, $800 for hanging flower pot project.
In total, $19,800 was awarded which leveraged $80,000 in match for these projects.
