Community Watershed Stewardship Program Approval and Project Implementation

Label: Information
Congratulations! Your project has been selected to receive a Community Watershed Stewardship Program (CWSP) grant. Find out more about what to do during project implementation and completion.

Notice: CWSP is currently on pause as we review and assess how it can best serve our community in the future. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this process and look forward to sharing updates when the program resumes.


Terms and Conditions

Between June and September, grant recipients will receive a contract that sets out the terms and conditions of the funding. This confirms all parties’ understanding of the project and the maximum grant amount to which the applicant is entitled.

Grantees are typically required to provide general liability and worker’s compensation insurance documentation before a contract can be fully authorized. Please make sure your general liability and worker’s compensation insurance are valid throughout the grant year. CWSP coordinators may have examples from previous years to help.

Reporting Requirements

Recipients are expected to regularly check in with CWSP coordinators throughout their project. Recipients will be required to complete a short mid-term report and final report detailing the project’s performance.

Payment of Grant

Funds are available after your grant agreement with the City is finalized (signed by all parties). To request payment of the grant, fiscal agents must submit invoices and copies of receipts for approved budget items.
