• Provide evidence of all costs, including details, that you're applying for. Example, quotations, product advertisements, reports, and budgets. Verbal quotes are not accepted.

Your application will then be assessed by a panel comprising of three members, one Council staff member, and two external community members.

The panel will submit a report to Council senior management with recommendations for successful applicants and award amounts.

All applicants will be advised in writing with the outcome of their application after Friday 3 May 2024. 

Successful applicants will be required to complete:

• An accountability report, to be completed 12 months after the grant was received. This report must include a financial breakdown of all payments made.

Council will provide the applicant with further information and requirements for both forms directly.
