Community Planning program funds are available for planning purposes only; capital, engineering, operating, and staff/equipment costs are not eligible. Municipalities located within the CMAP’s seven county region, Cook, DuPage, Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry, and Will, are eligible to apply to the Community Planning program.
Individual “not to exceed” project budgets are set by RTA and CMAP during the project development process. Project budgets should not be included as part of your application submittal. For projects selected by the RTA, as part of the Community Planning partnership between the RTA and local communities, a local cash contribution of 20% of the total project cost is required for each project. In-kind services cannot be applied toward the 20% local contribution.
For projects selected by CMAP, applicants will be asked to contribute up to 20% of the total project cost in cash or in kind based on demonstrated need. Additionally, applicants are responsible for providing 100% of any costs of the project over the not to exceed budget set for the project. Selected projects are expected to commence within six months of acceptance notification.
