Grant applications for local community infrastructure projects through the 2014 Community Building Partnership are now open.
Local projects funded since 2009 include
- Renovating the children’s room and disabled toilet at Stroud & District Country Club
- Drainage at Gresford Sporting Complex and upgrade of lighting
- Grandstand and disabled toilet at Clarence Town Football Club
State member for Upper Hunter George Souris said community groups are urged to apply for grants that will benefit the local community to provide positive social, recreational and environmental outcomes for the Upper Hunter electorate.
“NSW has the second lowest unemployment rate in Australia and this grant program will assist boosting local construction jobs and support businesses,” he said.
“Since the program started in 2009 I have been fortunate to support projects that have built, upgraded or enhanced local infrastructure.”
