This is a competitive process. Only complete applications will be assessed. Applications should clearly fulfil the assessment criteria stated in the Grant Guidelines. It is important to note that even applications that meet all the assessment criteria are not guaranteed funding.
Before you begin it is useful to:
- Ensure your organisation is eligible.
- Ensure that the project and its components are eligible.
- Consider how the project meets the assessment criteria.
- Discuss the proposed project with relevant council staff (e.g. Environment & Sustainability, Assets & Property, Planning).
It is also useful to understand the documentary evidence you may need.
- Details of incorporation or auspicing body
- Evidence of community/organisational support for the project
- Quotations for goods and services totaling $2,500 or more, incl. GST (2 quotes)
- Evidence of economic benefit (return on investment - refer Guidance Note in Guidelines doc)
- Relevant permits and/or approvals
- Letter of support from building owner, committees of management, user group(s)
- Co-contribution agreement for projects over $5,000 and up to $10,000
NOTE: Approval costs are the applicant's responsibility and should be included in the project cost assessment. A funding offer will be conditional upon obtaining all relevant regulatory and owner approvals.
