The Minor Infrastructure Program will provide funding for infrastructure projects that enhance community participation opportunities through the provision of spaces that are:

• Safe – reduced exposure to health and safety risk
• Quality- meeting standard required for community level participation
• Efficient – more efficient use of the places and spaces (can be used by more people, cater for more activities, be used for longer hours)
• Inclusive and accessible – enhancing usability of places and spaces and ensuring no one is excluded from participation.
