Description

All local governments are eligible for Canada Community-Building Fund (CCBF) funding. The program provides conditional grants for capital-related projects which meet program eligibility criteria. CCBF funding is allocated to local governments on a per capita basis with each community receiving a base funding amount. The annual program budget is subject to Canada advising Alberta of the yearly provincial funding. Local governments are advised of their annual CCBF funding allocations after Alberta's funding has been confirmed by Canada and specific funding allocations have been authorized by the Minister of Alberta Municipal Affairs.
