Council reviews Heritage Incentives Policy

Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) is undertaking a review of the Heritage Incentives Policy and we’d like to hear from you.

TRC Planning and Development Committee Chair Cr Megan O’Hara Sullivan said the policy oversees the CBD Heritage Incentives Scheme grants.

“The CBD Heritage Incentives Scheme provides grants on a competitive basis for approved conservation works. Under the scheme, Council contributes $1 for every $2 spent in conservation works up to a maximum contribution by Council of $10,000 per project," Cr O’Hara Sullivan said.

“Council is hoping to improve the uptake of the Heritage Incentives Scheme grants, undertaking the policy review will allow us to explore ways to make the scheme more accessible.

“We’d like to hear from you about your experiences with the scheme, how you’ve used it in the past or how you would like to use it.

“You don’t have to own a Heritage Building to have your say, you could operate a business nearby a Heritage Building, or have an interest in maintaining our valued places.

“Have your say by completing an online survey at https://yoursay.tr.qld.gov.au/ or by emailing [email protected].”
