Project Description
In August 2024, Mayor Sharon Tucker announced a proactive plan to invest financial resources in vital projects to enhance the quality of life for all in Fort Wayne. As part of this investment, each Fort Wayne City Council member was provided with funding to advance projects in the communities they represent.
