"Today, the Honourable Derek Bennett, Minister of Environment, Climate Change and Municipalities, issued a call for applications for the new $23.4 million COVID-19 Stimulus Program for communities in Newfoundland and Labrador. The COVID-19 Stimulus Program was created to help provide short-term employment and to stimulate economic activity through community projects. The program is targeted at small to medium scale municipal enhancement projects, and COVID-19 municipal upgrades such as repairs, maintenance and minor upgrades to municipal buildings, fire halls, recreation centres, and community property. One application per community is permitted and approved projects will be based on a 90/10 cost shared ratio with submissions capped at $150,000. The COVID-19 Stimulus Program encourages municipalities to find opportunities to support health and well-being in infrastructure improvements such as: Upgrading existing walking trails; Supporting accessibility, new families and building healthy communities; and Engaging residents in the revitalization of their communities. Program guidelines and applications are available online. The deadline to submit an application is December 7, 2020. The COVID-19 Stimulus Program is in addition to the $27.4 million announced under the Safe Restart Agreement in response to COVID-19. The Federal Government portion of the Safe Restart Agreement is being matched on a 50/50 cost share basis with Provincial Government expenditures retroactive to April 1, 2020." http://web.archive.org/web/20201123143620/https://www.gov.nl.ca/releases/2020/eccm/1123n03/
