Does each LCC have different funding priorities?
Local criteria and funding priorities vary by town. Interested applicants are strongly encouraged to contact each LCC to inquire about any relevant local guidelines before sending in an application. LCCs have a fair amount of autonomy and can determine particular funding guidelines or priorities based on the specific cultural needs of their community as assessed through a community input process. While all LCC’s are encouraged to develop local guidelines, LCCs receiving $20,000 or more from the MCC are required to do so. It is the applicant’s responsibility to investigate how the application process may vary from town to town.
