The City of Rancho Cordova’s Community Enhancement & Investment Fund supports a variety of projects and programs from public safety to public works, to legacy projects, to community-based and grassroots programs and initiatives.

Grants

The city provides grants to individuals, organizations, businesses, and community partners who are interested in enhancing the Rancho Cordova community through arts, culture, history, entertainment and sports; education; and other projects. Grants are made annually and traditionally open in February. Sign up on our email list to receive information on future grant opportunities. Please note that projects/programs involving art, or the Rancho Cordova Youth Center, will have separate application periods as funds are available. 

Funding

The Community Enhancement & Investment Fund is funded by Measures H and R, ½ cent local sales tax measures approved by Rancho Cordova voters respectively in November 2014 and 2020. Of the estimated $11.7 million in projected annual revenue from the Measure H sales tax, the city anticipates awarding about 25% towards community grants in Fiscal Year 2024/2025. The actual budget may vary based on final approved funding allocations.
