Applications are being accepted for the Targeted Sector Support (TSS) cost-shared grant program. This initiative uses a portion of Municipal Revenue Sharing ($1.5 million per fiscal year) to support projects that strengthen municipalities core operational capabilities through increased regional cooperation. Projects should support more efficient and effective municipal service delivery and enhanced governance and administrative capacity in Saskatchewan. Partnering municipalities can apply for up to 75 per cent of eligible project costs to the maximum amount of $100,000 to strengthen their core municipal responsibilities.
The initiative is managed by SUMA on behalf of the TSS Steering Committee that consists of SUMA, SARM, New North and the Ministry of Government Relations.
To learn more, please download the TSS fact sheet, visit the TSS page or contact the TSS Coordinator at info@targetedsector.ca or 306-525-4386.

The volunteer mentors have extensive experience as administrators, mayors, reeves and councillors. Mentors can be reached by phone and all conversations are confidential and free of charge.
