Description
The objectives of the Municipal Policing Assistance Grant Program are to help communities better meet the costs of policing services, and support government's commitment to address the financial impact of policing on municipalities. The municipality is expected to use the funds to ensure it has adequate and effective policing and policing oversight, assist in implementation of provincial policing initiatives, and/or enhance policing services to its residents. All municipalities that pay for their own policing qualify for this program. Recipients must provide reports on how the grant funds were used. The grant is issued annually to all eligible municipalities and no application is required.
