    • municipally-owned corporations
    • regional, provincial or territorial organizations delivering municipal services
    • non-governmental organizations
    • not-for-profit organizations
    • research institutes (e.g., universities)
  • An Indigenous community is an eligible lead applicant if they are partnering with a Canadian municipal government on a project, or if they have a shared service agreement with a Canadian municipal government related to municipal infrastructure, climate change or adaptation.

  • city halls, town halls
  • administrative buildings, police stations
  • indoor ice rinks, indoor sports arenas, indoor swimming pools
  • public libraries
  • community and recreational centres (e.g., community centres, clubhouses, recreation centres, gyms, halls and curling rinks)
  • arts and culture facilities (e.g., cultural facilities, performing arts facilities, art galleries and auditoriums)
  • multi-purpose buildings, which include one or more of the above community functions, as well as other services/administrative functions
  • Note: Fire halls, paramedic centres, ambulance stations, and public works buildings are eligible for retrofits as stand-alone buildings. For new construction projects, they must be part of a multi-purpose building that includes at least one eligible building type listed above.
