New, high-tech voting method to fund local projects comes to NYC
Participatory Budgeting on LinkNYC Kiosks
People who live in ten Brooklyn Community Council districts can now vote to fund community projects using LinkNYC kiosks.
As part of the Participatory Budgeting initiative, the 9-1/2-foot-tall sidewalk kiosks allow residents 14 and older to decide how to spend $1,000,000 or more of the public budget in their neighborhoods.
LinkNYC kiosks have been installed in roughly 10 Brooklyn neighborhoods, but voters can use the Links in any area to vote.
