Premium Content Subscriber only Councils and organisations in Capricornia can apply for a slice of a $200 million pie to help improve infrastructure in the region. Round five of the Federal Government’s Building Better Regions Fund is now accepting applications online. It includes $100 million for tourism infrastructure and another $100 million for other, general infrastructure projects. Federal Member for Capricornia Michelle Landry said the funding, which was announced in the 2020-21 Budget, would help mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19. “2020 was a challenging year for our community, with bushfires, drought and a global pandemic but the BBRF will help to kick-start this new year, bringing support to community driven projects our at a time it is most needed,” she said.
