Applications for grants are now being accepted by the City of Timmins.
Officials say nearly $400,000 in grants and in-kind donations were distributed to local businesses, property owners and volunteer oganizations last year.
That includes the City’s Downtown Community Improvement Plan, which allows the municipality to support the use, reuse and restoration of buildings and infrastructure; the Safety Improvement grant which sees businesses apply to add safety features such as security cameras and fencing to their property; and the City’s Grants to Organizations and Groups fund which helps local non-profits and volunteer groups.
Application forms, eligibility requirements, and details for each grant, tax rebate, or in-kind donation opportunity are available on the City’s website at Timmins.ca.
