The Recipient may invite other elected officials and members of council. The Recipient should
also invite local interested parties, such as contractors, architects, labour groups, and
community leaders as early as possible, and in consultation with the Senior Government, prior
to the event.
After the participants, date and location have been determined, the Recipient should send out

Where appropriate, the Recipient should invite the general public by posting notices in public
areas, such as post office and libraries or by placing public service announcements in the local
media.

the budget related to the event. No more than $750 of Eligible Costs will be considered.

Eligible Costs.
