1. Community Funding and Support Allocations Quarterly Report

This is a quarterly report concerning the year-to-date allocation of Council’s Community Funding and Support Programs from July 2020 to September 2020.

In the 2020-2021 financial year Council allocated a total $1,542,500 to support the Ipswich community through the following Funding and Support Programs including COVID-19 Recovery Funding.

By the end of the first quarter Council had disbursed approximately $450,000 to around 150 Ipswich community groups, sporting organisations and small businesses.

All successful applicants and projects are detailed in Attachment 1 and also reported online at www.ipswich.qld.gov.au/services/funding-and-support in accordance with Council’s principles of transparency and the Community Funding and Support Policy.

There is approximately $920,500 remaining across the following Community Funding and Support Programs for the remaining nine months of the 2020-2021 financial year.

Note: This Executive Summary does not state exact total figures as the Community Repair and Replacement Fund assessments are incomplete so final program totals are unfinished.
