----------------------------------------------------------------
Grants are available to owners of designated properties under
the Ministry of Culture and Communications "Designated Property
Grant Program" . The Ministry has indicated that funds are
available and it is appropriate that this application, which
meets the program' s grant criteria, be processed at this time.
For Committee' s information I advise that funding for the
program requires that the Municipality pay the Grant portion
(first having determined that the works have been properly
completed) and then make application to the Heritage Branch
for re-iiribursement. The Town can obtain full recovery plus
ten percent to cover the administrative cost.
The application for designated propery grant was approved
by L.A.C.A.C. and received by the Town on December 19, 1988 .
The Treasurer has indicated that funds pertaining to designated
property grants would be taken from the miscellaneous Clearing
Account #1003-00015-0000 . Once the work has been completed and
inspected by L.A.C.A.C. , a subsequent report will be forwarded
to the Committee authorizing payment of the grant.
Respectfully submitted, Recommended for presentation
