The Town of Crossfield has capital grant funding available to community organizations who are registered under the Alberta Societies Act and operating a district amenity providing recreational or cultural services that are open for the use and enjoyment of all Town of Crossfield residents. This grant funding must be used for capital purchases related to the repair and/or enhancement of existing facilities or the development of a new facility. Studies required for long-term planning resulting in capital funding investment, such as a Life Cycle Plan, are eligible under this program.
This capital assistance grant is based on a cost-sharing program. The Board may approve up to 50% funding of the total capital project; however, this will be at the discretion of the Crossfield Recreation Board and Crossfield Council for facilities located within town.
