Rossland city council met Thursday night to hear from community organizations that had applied for the Columbia Basin Trust Community Initiatives Program, a program that provides funding for “projects identified as priorities for individual communities.”
After presentations from the applicants, council then had the unenviable task of allocating its $51,772 of funding amongst the organizations, who had collectively requested over $125,000.
