Community Project Budget Picker

Community Project Budget Picker

Explore which combination of community projects fits a shared budget. Use member-agreed support scores to compare the best affordable bundle with the projects it leaves out.

Planning arithmetic only, not procurement or financial advice. Use real all-in costs and already available funds. No ballot authentication, vote collection or purchase occurs here. Last reviewed: 2026-10-05. Browser-only worksheet: no uploads, accounts or automatic saving. Use one agreed master copy; this is not a synchronised multi-user service. Export before closing and share only with consent.

One line: unique project label | all-in cost | agreed support score

How this works and what it cannot do

Exhaustive 0/1 subset search over up to 18 projects maximises summed non-negative support scores without exceeding budget. Ties favour lower total cost, then input order. Scores are entered aggregates, not votes collected here. Assumes independent projects with no dependencies, shared costs or excluded alternatives; those need human discussion.

Agree participation, decision rules and responsibilities locally. These tools do not guarantee prosperity, check legal compliance or replace essential public services. No government funding or administration is assumed.
