What to do

Projects

1. Paint a mural about Wah Mei School’s history

  • Area: Inner Sunset

We want to paint a mural on 17th Avenue near Irving Street that celebrates the history of Wah Mei School. It would show the many cultures and stories that helped shape this community.

2. Host art pop-up events on Ocean Avenue

  • Area: Ocean Avenue

We want to host a series of art pop-up events on Ocean Avenue, building on one we held in June 2024. These events would bring people together through art and culture at local businesses.

3. Add to the Clarendon School Mural

  • Area: Forest Knolls

We want to expand the mural on the Clarendon Elementary School pedestrian bridge inspired by its students. The mural was funded from last year’s participatory budget and we want to continue that work.

4. Paint curbs and make crossings safer in Sunnyside

  • Area: Sunnyside

We want to paint curbs and add posts or planters at two intersections in Sunnyside. This would make it easier for drivers to see people crossing the street.

5. Improve median landscaping in Monterey Heights

  • Area: Monterey Heights

We want to replace overgrown plants with new landscaping at Monterey Boulevard and San Jacinto Way.

6. Fix sign and paint mural at Commodore Sloat Elementary School

  • Area: Balboa Terrace

We want to replace the wooden sign at Commodore Sloat Elementary that faces Ocean Avenue. We also want to add a mural to enhance the school’s outdoor space.  

7. Paint a mural on Monterey Boulevard

  • Area: Sunnyside

We want to paint a mural on the wall of the Safeway on Monterey Boulevard. This would help beautify the area and help prevent graffiti.  

8. Fix sidewalks in Ingleside Terraces

  • Area: Ingleside Terraces

We want to fix 2 to 4 cracked sidewalks in and around Ingleside Terraces.  

9. Improve garden and open space at West Portal School

  • Area: West Portal

We want to replace planting beds and improve open space at West Portal Elementary School. These areas were removed or blocked off during construction.

10. Add curb ramps in Westwood Park

  • Area: Westwood Park

We want to build two new curb ramps in Westwood Park. These ramps would help people using strollers and wheelchairs move around more easily.

Special cases

Disclaimer

Sometimes there are problems with projects. When funded projects need to stop, or don’t need all the money they have asked for, we spend that extra money on other projects. We may use it to fund projects that have gone over budget, or we can use the money next year.
 
We will fund the 8 projects that get the most votes. Funds will go to departments. Departments will then keep funds in house to complete projects or go through the city contracting process to distribute.
