To ensure a consistent approach is taken to manage any club managed electronic scoreboard project which alters the existing state of a Council facility, Council's Electronic Scoreboard Grants program provides funds up to $40,000 for successful tenant clubs (applicants) to deliver an electronic scoreboard of their choice.
Should the value of the project exceed $40,000, the tenant clubs will need to fund any overspend. This may be combined with funding external to Council.
Knox City Council and tenant sporting clubs have invested significant financial and human resources into the development of sporting reserve facilities within Knox and it is essential that these assets are kept to the highest possible standard. In addition to this, Council needs to ensure the relevant safety standards are adhered to when clubs appoint contractors to undertake works.
Following the adoption of Council’s 2019/20 Budget, applications for Round 4 of the Electronic Scoreboards Program have now been allocated. Submissions closed on Monday 5 August 2019.
