👋🏼 Hello!

We're Team PeopleBudget!

We are interested in building a Participatory and Predictive Budget for the City of Miami.

Thanks for coming here to learn more!

Project Description

PeopleBudge was inspired by Austin Budget Party which was built to help people understand and augment a city budget for Austin. We will be building a web application for Miami that can educate and inform people about their budget.

The requirements given for PeopleBudget have 2 core phases:

Participatory

  • Budget Overview A quick presentation of the City Budget, specifically the parts that citizens can influence.
  • Budget Party People get into small teams with neighbors to go through the app and allocate funds to different departments.

Predictive

This will be announced later.

What's Next

We are kicking off this project on January 13th.
