Off-road Vehicles Area Grants Program — Establishment and Major Upgrade

To be eligible for the program, applicants must:

• be a local government within Western Australia (local governments may propose to partner with other organisations to deliver works and/or operate the ORV area)
• if a joint submission between two or more local governments is made, propose how each local government will contribute to the project and what portion each will fund and/or deliver
• if a submission involves a partner other than a local government, propose how each project partner will contribute to the project and what portion each will fund and/or deliver
• be able to demonstrate capacity to deliver the construction of a new ORV area, or major works at an existing permitted ORV area within the relevant local government district
• provide evidence of support (or absence of opposition) for the proposal across relevant state agencies
• provide a clear project plan with itemised eligible costs
• provide a process of how public consultation will occur if funding is recommended.

Applications that demonstrate significant in-kind commitments from the applicant (such as internal capability to obtain relevant statutory approvals and complete civil construction work) will be favourably considered.
