Funding

The intent of the Asset Management Planning program is to assist local governments in delivering sustainable services by extending and deepening asset management practices within their organizations. 

The 2024 Asset Management Planning program can provide up to 50% of total project costs to the grant maximum $25,000 to support activities that advance a local government’s asset management planning or practices, and that facilitate better integration of asset management planning with long term financial planning.  

The intent of the Regional C2C program is to support the advancement of First Nation-local government reconciliation and relationship building.

This program supports forums with funding of up to $10,000. The same funding maximum is available for the development of agreements (such as protocols, MOUs, service agreements), joint plans or strategies, and the joint review of bylaws or policies to help develop recommendations for amendments or new bylaws and policies. The total eligible grant amount is $20,000.
