This scheme will be targeted at two categories of Towns/Villages, with 60% of funding being made available for towns and villages with a population of less than 5,000 people, and the remainder left for towns with a population of 5,001 to 10,000 people.

The minimum grant which is available is €20,000 and the maximum is €100,000. A higher maximum of €200,000 will be considered for a limited number of projects where a robust case demonstrating exceptionally strong economic benefit to the town or village can be made.
