Feedback on Heritage Community Investment Program (HCIP) Granting Process

The Edmonton Heritage Council is considering making some changes to the administration of HCIP grants, with the aim of increased efficiency for all involved. These proposed changes may include an increase in the available funds in each cohort of individual funding streams through a reduction in the number of intakes while keeping the annual funding at the same levels. We are seeking input from members as well as past and prospective grant applicants in advance of any possible adjustments. Please complete the following survey by Friday, March 13 in order to have your feedback considered.
1.I am interested in these proposed changes because (please choose all that apply):(Required.)
