Grants

City of Nelson Grant Applications

During annual budget deliberations Council determines the level of funding that the City will have available for grant funds.  Please be advised that the City of Nelson will not be not accepting applications from community groups for grant funding in 2012.  However, other types of grant funding are available to community groups as follows.

Columbia Basin Trust - Community Initiatives Funding

Council plays an active role in the approval process for applications to the Columbia Basin Trust Community Initiatives Funding.  Each year the Regional District of Central Kootenay accepts project proposals for funding consideration from the Columbia Basin Trust's Community Initiatives and Affected Areas Programs.  While the application process for 2012 is now closed, you may like to check back on this site in early 2013 for updated information on grant funding.
 
Application guidelines and related forms are available at:
IMPORTANT NOTE:  Council has previously approved the allocation of up to 35% of CBT-CIP funding for the Arts, Culture and Heritage sectors.  Staff has been asked to present information in September 2012 to assist Council in determining the appropriate allocation of funding for 2013.
