Note: Meeting the published application deadline does not guarantee inclusion in the upcoming Council agenda. Applications will be reviewed based on completeness, submission timing, and staff capacity.
The Council will consider requests for assistance by community, sporting and non-profit organisations holding festivals, events or promotions in the Glamorgan Spring Bay.
Festivals and events are defined as activities held within the Glamorgan Spring Bay area that seek funding support and contribute to the region’s cultural, social, or economic vibrancy.
ELIGIBLE ORGANISATIONS:
Any community group, organisation or club that is legally incorporated or operating under the auspices of an incorporated body. The organisation must hold and produce evidence of public liability cover for the event.
ELIGIBLE ASSISTANCE:
In-kind support includes provision of such items as wheelie-bins, barricades, delivery and collection of bins, erection of barricades and advertising of street closures (if a council road and it has been approved by Council). The cost to the Council of any in-kind assistance approved will be calculated and costed against the application.
The maximum funding allocation for any event is $2,000. However, Council reserves the right to vary this amount at its discretion during the decision-making process.
PRIORITIES:
The funding available is limited. Priority will be given to events that:
- Have a significant benefit for a wide range of Glamorgan Spring Bay residents and businesses.
- Are unique within the Glamorgan Spring Bay
- If profit making, put the funds back into the community, preferably through community projects that will benefit a wide cross-section of the community.
