Request for Letter of Support

It is strongly advisable to discuss your proposal with council officers prior to submitting a request for a Letter of Support. Where a project will require Council contribution, whether cash or in kind, your proposal may be required to be submitted as a Community Budget Submission or Community Grants Application. Council budgets are set up to 12 months in advance and while the process may seem lengthy it is required to ensure that a holistic, fair and equitable assessment of all projects and their alignment with Council's Strategic Plan and direction can occur.

Application Details

Use this form if you are requesting a Letter of Support from Council for a project or initiative. Please note: depending on your project scope and community impact more information may be requested to enable Council to appropriately assess your request.

Please allow minimum 10 business days for your application to be assessed.

Project Details

Please note: you will need to apply for an Application for Permit for Works on Council Land, Facilities and/or Asset BEFORE undertaking any works.
