2nd Edition of the BC Rural Dividend Application Guide

Today - the Province released the 2nd Edition of the BC Rural Dividend Application Guide.  A copy of which you can view here

Some improvements include:

* Audited Financial Statements not required until project is worth $100,000 or more
* Up to 25% of identified Infrastructure costs permitted (does not include water, sewer sidewalks)
* Trails now allowed

I still have concerns that the program is geared towards 'studying' things, rather than getting on 'building' things which is what a lot of rural communities, including several within my Electoral Area, frankly need right now.
