City of Prince Rupert opens Application period for Community Enhancement Grant process

The City of Prince Rupert has opened up the short window of application for interested groups and organizations that may be looking to apply for financial assistance through the City's Community Enhancement Grant program.

The popular municipal initiative delivers funding to successful applicants in two forms, a cash disbursement or in kind provision for use of Civic facilities or services.

Should you belong to a group that may be interested in the program you must submit a completed Community Enhancement Grant Application form.

The forms are available from the Administration Office from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Fridays at City Hall on Third Avenue West.

Some of the key principles for grant applicants to keep in mind as they consider their plans can be found from the notes below:

The forms and the full set of guidelines for those that are applying for the program can also be found online from the City of Prince Rupert website.
