The Mattapoisett Community Preservation Committee will accept project funding applications for inclusion in the spring 2016 Annual Town Meeting from Sept. 28 to Nov. 13. The form is available online and at the Selectmen's office in Town Hall.

Each project must be submitted to the Community Preservation Committee using the project submission form as a cover sheet.

Requests must include a statement of need and be documented with appropriate support information.

Applicants are encouraged to include any maps, diagrams and/or photographs pertaining to the project. Letters of support for the project from community organizations or other sources may also be submitted.

The Community Preservation Committee may require additional (or more detailed) information or further clarification to a submitted application.

Applicants should obtain professionally prepared quotes for project costs whenever possible. If such quotes are not available, detailed cost estimates may be used provided the basis of the estimates is fully explained.

Applicants should prepare itemized project scopes, with details describing each item and its estimated cost.

If the request is part of a multi-year project, include the total project costs and allocations. Applicants that have multiple project requests are asked to prioritize them.
