July 15, Monday @ 6:30 p.m.
August 5, Monday @ 6:30 p.m.
August 19, Monday @ 6:30 p.m.

Applicants will be given three minutes to briefly provide an overview of their organization and how funding would benefit the Foster City community. Please fill out a yellow speaker slip and provide that to our City Clerk when you arrive for one of the above City Council Meetings. If you are joining remotely or via phone, please raise your hand on Zoom or dial *9 to raise your hand. Agendas for upcoming meetings can be found here: Agendas and Minutes | Foster City California. Public Comment will be the fifth (5) item on the City Council Agenda (see below). The zoom link for a meeting can be found at the top of the latest agenda.

City Staff will review the applications, and City Council will make funding-level recommendations that will be presented for consideration at a future City Council meeting. Agencies selected for funding will be notified in writing of the City Council's approval and funding amount and will be asked to submit an invoice and W-9 documentation to the City to receive the funds.
