Funds available to help restore historic properties

Owners of heritage properties in Eurobodalla can now apply for grants to help them restore their pride and joy.
 

Eurobodalla Council is offering grants up to $5,000 for projects that conserve individual places, buildings, items and historic streetscapes and promote the appreciation of Eurobodalla’s history.
 

Council advise ten historic buildings were lost in the fires, and preserving our remaining heritage listed properties is crucial.
 

Council offers the Local Heritage Grants every year to raise awareness of heritage conservation, with a funding contribution from Heritage NSW.
 

Successful applicants will need to contribute one dollar for every dollar provided by the grant, and the restoration work must be completed before 22 April 2022.
