Submitting your funding agreement

If your application is successful, you will need to complete a funding agreement. This agreement outlines the requirements of your organisation and any specific conditions that will apply to your project.

You will receive an electronic transfer of funds after the funding agreement has been submitted.

For assistance on how to submit your funding agreement through SmartyGrants see Using SmartyGrants.

Variations

We understand that projects, events, and activities are subject to change. You must notify the Community Grants team of any changes that affect your funding agreement.

These could include, but are not limited to changes to:

• the start and finish dates
• requested funding items
• location of the project or event
• the purpose.

To request a variation, please contact our Community Grants team on (07) 3412 4033 or email grants@logan.qld.gov.au. You will need to receive approval in writing before you undertake any changes.

Acknowledging Council funding

As a condition of funding, successful applicants are required to acknowledge Council’s support. You will be required to demonstrate how you acknowledged Council in your grant acquittal.

For more information about your acknowledgement requirements, please see our Acknowledgement guidelines for Council grants and funding (PDF 200 KB).

Submitting your acquittal

An acquittal is a report that details how the grant was spent and the outcomes of the funded project. The due date for your acquittal will be 8 weeks after your project, event or activity is completed. This will be available in your SmartyGrants profile once the signed funding agreement has been received by Council.

To make the acquittal process easier we suggest you:

• document the project as you go
• take a lot of photos (don’t forget to ask for consent!)
• think about how you will measure and evaluate your project
• keep a financial record of how the funds were spent (hold on to all your receipts!)

Remember any funding on goods and services that are not part of your funding agreement will not be accepted.

If you don’t complete the acquittal process, you’ll be required to repay the funding to Council. Any unspent funds will also need to be returned. Organisations and individuals with overdue acquittals won’t be eligible to receive Council funding.
