Final Report Template
| List of Significant Community Undertakings in 2024 |
Following a recommendation made by the Financial Assistance Program Committee (who are responsible for the evaluation and review of all applications made to the Community Grant Program), Council has designated a number of annual activities as significant community undertakings.
This designation means that Municipal cash and/or in-kind support will automatically be renewed on an annual basis (pending the successful completion of a year-end report and annual Municipal budget approval) and does not need to be requested through the Community Grant Program.
Any requests above and beyond the traditional ask, can still be made through the Community Grant Program.
