Community Grant rules and application process updated
Policy 5302 now adds detailed applicant rules, including one-year registration, one application per organization, and conditions tied to prior reporting, while also stating that requests above $5,000 must go to Council. It also clarifies that the grant supplements other support and adds project restrictions, allowed expense types, extension rules, and follow-up reporting by December 31 of the award year. The application process has been expanded to require the online form, supporting-document uploads, and a detailed budget attachment, and the former email or in-person submission instructions are no longer shown. The contact phone number now appears as 780-987-8332, and the application form says applicants should expect confirmation within 3–5 business days.
