Grant Funding for Infrastructure Projects

Meeting Finance and Governance Committee

Meeting date: 18 August 2020

Raised by: Alderman Briscoe

Question: Due to some feedback (and some confusion that may have the potential to derail funding projects) in the community and from some politicians to me who are unsure what the priorities of the city in seeking major grant funds for infrastructure projects particularly in the COVID era where the State and Federal Government are providing funds for stimulation of the economy; 1. (a) What are the current Hobart City Council projects seeking grant funds and their order of priority? (b) If there is, who decided the priorities? 2. Is there a coordinated effort by the elected leadership and the executive team to push the same projects (for example, the aquatic centre upgrade)?
