BOWLING GREEN, Ky. - The City of Bowling Green's neighborhood grant program is getting a facelift!  Formerly known as Flexible Neighborhood Grant, which had been initially launched in 1999 as the Select Neighborhood Action Program, is now being renamed the Strategic Neighborhood Grant Funds.  

 

This year's 2026 grant cycle will make $60,000 in funds available to projects for neighborhood initiatives, funds will divided into two equal cycles for Fall and Spring neighborhood projects.  Applications are now being accepted through August 1, 2025 for the Fall projects.
