Deadline: 10-Oct-22
The Cardinia is seeking applications for its Beautification Grant.
Priorities
- Priority is given to projects that:
- are driven and/or supported by local community groups
- are located on Cardinia Shire Council owned or managed land
- are in areas used frequently by the community, including town centers, Council buildings (halls, community centers etc.) parks and reserves.
- will enhance and green public open space, improving the overall amenity of the area
- can be completed within the allocated timeframe
- align with priorities identified in township strategies, landscape master plans and other Council strategic documents.
Funding Information
- All projects will be funded on a matched funding basis: $1 from Council and $1 from the applicant, to a maximum grant of $2,000 (including GST). You can match the amount requested with the cost of labour used for preparing the site, planting and ongoing maintenance.
- The grant covers the purchase of plant material, stakes, tree guards and mulch. Other landscaping materials such as street and park furniture are a lower priority.
What they will not fund?
- They will not fund grants for projects requiring a vegetation removal permit or where funds may be obtained from other sources.
Eligibility Criteria
- Individuals and community groups can apply for funds for landscape enhancement projects.
