Bay Bulls applying for green space grant

By Mark Squibb

The Town of Bay Bulls is applying for some green to make some green — a green space that is.

Councillor Ethan Williams, during last week’s meeting, moved that council submit an application to the Scotts Gro for Good Garden grant program for the development of a new community green space.

“It’s always great when there’s programs such as this that we can apply for to help add some nice little features to the town,” said Williams. “Gro for Good is an organization I’m a little bit familiar with and they seem to be a great organization with a good message and a good meaning behind them, so I’m glad that we’re able to take advantage of this application process.”

Councillor Jason Sullivan seconded the motion, and council approved it.

The lawn care company last year awarded five Canadian grants totalling $2,500, including one for Benoit’s Cove on the island’s west coast.

Successful recipients will also have a chance to compete in a social media contest for an additional grant of $2,500.
