Village of Telkwa council will be raiding a grant fund available to them to bring in some extra money to support the renovation of the community hall.
Telkwa staff brought forward a motion for council’s consideration at their Mar. 28 meeting that they apply to the Northern Development Initiative Recreational Facilities Grant.
As of Dec. 31, the account for Telkwa in the grant fund stood at just under $5,000.
The community hall in Telkwa fits into the criteria for funding opportunities.
Councillor Rimas Zitkauskas said that the money would go toward’s this year’s $20,000 commitment that council has made with the Kinsmen to participate in the renovation and renewing of the hall.
