Deadline: 26-Feb-21
The Department for Environment and Water is seeking applications for the 3rd round of South Australia Heritage Grants Program to conserve or protect significant fabric or heritage values.
If you own a State Heritage Place or a place in a State Heritage Area and are planning a conservation project that will help to conserve or protect significant fabric or heritage values, you may be eligible to receive a SA heritage grant. As well as the urgency and importance of conservation work, other aspects that may be considered when allocating funding includes the extent to which the project contributes to:
- The community – works with the ‘public good’ component.
- Heritage tourism – works that will result in the increased visitation of a Place or Area.
- Heritage trades and training – works that use traditional trades and skills and/or support specialised training.
- Adaptive reuse – conservation works that support compatible new uses or continued use of a Place.
- Places at risk – works to prevent further deterioration and conserve fabric at risk.
- Remote and very remote places – works that support the regions.
Funding Information
- There are three categories of funding – Simple up to $5k (GST exclusive), Complex up to $10k (GST exclusive) and Major up to $20k (GST exclusive).
- Funding is provided on a dollar-for-dollar basis and is available for private owners, companies, local councils & community groups who are owners of State Heritage Places, and owners or businesses within a State Heritage Area. State Heritage Places owned by the State Government are not eligible.
Criteria
Due to the anticipated high demand, not all projects will be successful in obtaining a grant in this funding round.
To ensure your application can be assessed your project MUST satisfy the following criteria:
- The project relates to a State Heritage Place or Area.
- You are the owner of the heritage property that is the subject of this application or you have written permission from the owner to undertake this project on their behalf.
- The project will contribute to the conservation or protection of significant fabric or heritage values.
