Eleven City-based businesses have successfully secured funding under the City’s highly-competitive Business Improvement Grant program.
The City recognises that businesses, and business activity, contribute to the vibrancy and energy of the city, and the program financially assists businesses to bring new ideas and projects to life.
Matched grant funding from $10,000 to $25,000 is available to eligible businesses under the program.
At the July Ordinary Council Meeting, Councillors voted to approve funding to the total value of $270,000 for the following businesses for the 2023/24 financial year.
