Local Motion Grants
The primary goal of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Commission's Local Motion Grant Program is to advance people-powered mobility (walking, rolling, and biking) in Bloomington. The program will provide direct support to initiatives that focus on cultural, day-to-day, or other locally based activities that also aim to strengthen our diverse and vibrant walking, rolling, and biking culture.
Program Guidelines
There is one grant cycle annually and requests are limited to one project application per cycle. Grant awards are capped at a maximum of $2,400 per project application. Existing or emerging non-profit organizations, locally-owned businesses, and neighborhood associations with new projects are encouraged to apply for the Local Motion Grant Program.
