project needs to pursue a demonstrative end result that can be replicated elsewhere in the <br />region. Examples include: <br />o Will the project use an innovative collaboration? <br />o Is it sited in a unique way? <br />o Is there some element of the project's funding, implementation or design that hasn't <br />been done locally? <br />o Can some quality, element, or portion of this project serve as an example elsewhere in <br />the region? <br />• When filling out the grant application, it is important to distinguish between the development <br />project and its constituent Grant -Funded Activities. The project is the development or <br />redevelopment work that through its design and execution will deliver benefits such as housing, <br />connections, and/or jobs to the region. The activities for which grant funds are requested, <br />referred to as "Grant -Funded Activities", are conducted in support of the overall project and <br />must be completed during the grant term. <br />• Public space elements must be more than mere amenities — if you are requesting only items <br />such as benches or planters, consider those as furnishings. To be funded, public space <br />elements must meet a higher standard and be integral to an intentionally designed public <br />space. If you are requesting public space elements, explain how these items will define the <br />project and attract both people and investment to the area. See public space definition in <br />Appendix 4. <br />Note that unless otherwise instructed, your answers should pertain only to the development project <br />that will begin development/redevelopment work within the 36-month grant term. It is not adequate to <br />be "shovel -ready"; the project must commence hard construction by December 31, 2022. Do not <br />include project phases that will not be included within this timeframe. <br />10 <br />
