Have Your Say: COVIDSafe Outdoor Activation Fund

Bass Coast Shire Council has been allocated $500,000 as part of the Victorian State Government's COVIDSafe Outdoor Activation Fund to help us activate outdoor spaces for the Vaccine Economy. The fund will be allocated in two phases, Part A ($250,000) will be for rapid implementation and Part B ($250.000) will be more detailed permanent/ semi-permanent outdoor activations.

This year the fund includes more industries such as retail, hair and beauty, gyms and hospitality, expanding on last year’s Outdoor Eating and Entertaining Package.

We want to hear from businesses to understand what we can do to support outdoor activations this summer.
