All 23 recipients of Fishers’ 2026 Neighborhood Vibrancy Grants have now received final approval after some neighborhoods needed additional time to complete the required paperwork.

The city awarded $339,729 for resident-led projects intended to improve neighborhood common areas and residents’ quality of life.

Projects range from new entrance monuments, lighting and landscaping to rain gardens, sidewalk repairs and safety bollards. The grants will also support a public bicycle repair station, trail improvements, benches and a Little Free Library.

“Neighborhoods are where residents experience Fishers every day, and these grants give residents a direct role in shaping and improving the places they call home,” Mayor Scott Fadness said. “These projects reflect the pride residents have in their neighborhoods and their commitment to investing in the broader Fishers community.”

Fishers has offered the Neighborhood Vibrancy Grant Program since 2018. Homeowners associations and neighborhood groups may apply for assistance with eligible maintenance, beautification and improvement projects.

The program covers 80% of eligible project costs, up to $25,000. Grant recipients are responsible for the remaining 20%.

Eligible expenses include project design, construction and installation. The city gives priority to visible projects that address an existing neighborhood need, benefit the wider community or incorporate sustainable and innovative features. Projects must be completed within the program’s required one-year period.

Applications for the 2027 grant cycle are expected to open in November. More information is available at FishersIN.gov/NVG.
