Apply for Riverbank funding
The 2024-25 round is closed.
Funding is for projects that address the following priorities:
- To protect and enhance riverbanks and shorelines to mitigate threats to environmental, recreational, aesthetic or cultural values;
- To protect, enhance and manage fringing native vegetation and habitat; and
- To improve enjoyment of the foreshore by addressing risk to public amenity values, infrastructure and the environment.
Grants Funding process
Riverbank Grants Funding is a competitive process undertaken in two stages:
Stage One
Call for Expressions of Interest (EOIs). Project proposals which offer best value for money in addressing foreshore issues and achieving the desired outcomes for the river system will be selected. Funding for successful projects will be conditional at this stage.
Stage Two
Riverbank officers will work with successful applicants from Stage One to establish collaborative arrangements between parties. It is through the establishment of these arrangements that the final project details, including a project schedule, and detailed budget arrangements will be negotiated.
How to apply
The application period for the 2024-25 Riverbank Grants Funding round is now closed.
