Orange County, Fla. - Orange County is seeking grant applicants for neighborhood beautification and sustainability projects.

The funding is available to help subdivisions with new signage, landscaping, pressure washing, playground equipment, irrigation repair, lighting, and more. The County annually awards $410,000 through the Neighborhood Beautification Grant program and $50,000 through the Sustainable Communities Grant program.

"It's important to understand that our team takes initiative with these grants," said Rose-Nancy Joseph, Neighborhood Services' Senior Program Manager of Community Development & Outreach. "We knock on doors to let residents know funding is available. We are here to coach communities through the process."

As the County begins seeking applications for the next grant cycle ending on Oct. 10, the grants team will be available for media interviews.
