CIP stands for CityDAO Improvement Proposal. Passing a CIP is needed whenever funds are allocated by the DAO towards an initiative. If you have an idea for a CIP, the first step is to write up the CIP using the below template. Then post it on https://forum.citydao.io. If you get confused, pop in the Discord and ask questions.
Describe your proposal, how much money it allocates and to whom, and the expected outcome.
Please describe team members and their qualifications.
Please include how much money will be allocated to the project and what types of assets (for example, ETH, USDC, Citizen NFTs).
Describe the justification for how those funds will be spent.
Describe comp for team members and how that comp is distributed (for example hourly, upon completion, etc)
How long until the project is complete? What are some milestones the DAO can look forward to?
What might go wrong?
