CURB Improves 5 Neighborhoods

This program granted funds to 5 Council Bluffs neighborhoods for "curb appeal" type projects. Lincoln Fairview, Bluffs Acres, Fairmount Park, Locust Lodge and Playland Park applied for grants and were designated to received funds ranging from $7,000 to $25,000 for projects they chose for their neighborhoods. Sample projects included: replacing sidewalks, restoring retaining walls, painting trim, replacing stairs, landscaping, and lighting.

The goals of CURB are to beautify neighborhoods by addressing many of the unsightly physical conditions that impact it stability and impede the desire to re-invest in that neighborhood. And to strengthen and improve neighborhoods and empower the people in them to become more active participants in their neighborhoods and community.
