A proportion of the fund, totalling €494,000, is being retained to leverage funding from other funding streams for strategic projects at Municipal District level.
Kerry County Council announced the details and this year’s fund will be used to rebuild and reconnect communities, for Tidy Towns initiatives and amenity projects, for economic innovation and for tourism, festivals and events.
Since 2020, over €40 million was leveraged from other national grant sources as a result of the strategic allocation of resources under the Community Support Fund.
