Ballynagran Small Grant Scheme 2013
(suggested approach for review)
The Ballynagran Landfill Community Liaison Committee and Wicklow County Council have agreed to put in place a grant scheme to provide energy efficient improvements work and works to minimise the effects of odours from the landfill facility.
This grant may be availed of by owner occupied households living in the area close to the Ballynagran landfill site
(that is, the area marked pink on the attached map —-> Map of Small Grant Area).
This scheme is being funded through the proceeds of the levy on the Ballynagran Landfill Facility.
Works are subject to a grant of up to 90% of the cost of the works (70% for those works which quality for SEAI grants) and a maximum grant of €3,000. The funding available depends on the number of qualifying households which apply and the overall amount of funds available. More than one project may be undertaken to reach the maximum grant amount.
Qualifying Projects for the 2013 Small Grant Scheme and conditions are:
** SEAI Grants. For those projects which qualify for SEAI grants, households may decide not to apply to the SEAI for such grants, however the maximum small grant scheme grant will be 70%.
Own Labour: A grant for materials only will be paid for any works carried out by own or voluntary labour. Receipts for material from registered suppliers must be provided.
Other normal terms and conditions from the previous (2011) scheme to be added.
