Intention to provide donation under Section 356 of the Local Government Act

Local resident and Cultural Consultant Elsa Atkin has approached Council seeking a $70,000 grant to allow her to produce a Sculpture@Sawmillers exhibition in Spring 2021. 

Subject to Council determination, there is potential to fund the exhibition from the events program due to other events being cancelled due to COVID.

In accordance with sec.356 of the Local Government Act  a minimum of 28 days public notice must be given before Council considers a proposal to provide a grant outside of an already approved program.

A report on this matter will be considered by Council on 22 February 2021.

For further information, contact Council’s Manager Communications and Events on 9936 8120.
