The Municipality has recently established a Fonds vert program to provide financial leverage and municipal support for environmental, sustainable development and/or active transportation initiatives in the community.
The Fonds vert is available to citizens, local entrepreneurs, non-profit organizations and public agencies (e.g. schools, health care facilities, social services). Types of eligible projects are studies, awareness projects, structuring actions, environmental or active transportation events, as well as exceptional/significant projects.
We encourage you to read the Fonds vert Policy before starting your application.
In case of discrepancies with the French version, please note that the French version always takes precedence.
Each project selected will be eligible for a financial contribution as follows:
- Projects of $5,000 or less: The amount awarded could represent up to 75% of the total value of eligible expenses.
- Projects of $5,001 to $25,000: The amount awarded could represent up to 50% of the total value of eligible expenses.
The next call for projects is taking place from September 23 to November 29, 2024.
Projects will then be preliminarily analyzed and presented to Council in early 2025 for a final project selection. All participants will receive a response regarding the acceptance or rejection of their project proposal.
Any application received before or after the application period will be automatically rejected.
NEW - The Fonds vert project submissions can now be made through the Pivot citizen portal.
Please make sure to fill out the applicant form completely.
Before starting your application, please take the time to review the form and the required documents to ensure that you have all the necessary information ready.
You can contact the Environment Department at any time to ask questions or provide comments.
