Grants
Council runs at least 7 grant programs and publishes each round's result as a separate PDF, on several different pages, with the columns named differently nearly every time. Nothing lists what exists, so the obvious questions — who gets funded, how often, for how much — have had no answer. This is all of it in one table: 420 grants worth $4,290,473 to 221 recipients, 2019-20 to 2026-27.

How this was built. By reading the tables out of council's own outcome PDFs — 32 of them — and normalising the columns, which council names eight different ways across the programs. Every row links the document it came from, so any figure here can be checked against council's copy.
Counted once, and counted every year. 55 of these rows come from tables council heads “funding per year”: a multi-year grant paid annually, which appears in each year's document at the same figure. Those are counted in every year they were paid, because they were paid in every year. Rows are only ever merged when the same recipient, project and amount appear against the same year in two documents. No row met that test.
Alliance funding is understated here, and council's own record says why. Multi-year Community and Environment Alliance agreements appear both in the grant round that decided them and in a separate alliance document, at identical figures — which looks like the same award counted twice. It is not. Council's 6 July 2021 committee agenda carries a report headed “Community Alliance agreements (1 July 2021 – 30 June 2022)”, so those rows are one year's funding, and the 2022–2025 document that repeats the figures is headed “Year 1”, meaning the year after. Two real payments that happen to be equal, because the rate did not change. Both are counted.
What is missing is the rest: council publishes Year 1 of the 2022–2025 agreements and nothing for Years 2 or 3, so two years of committed funding to thirteen organisations appear nowhere in the totals above. The agreements were made; the payments are simply not published.
What is missing, and why. 3 grants appear in council's tables with no readable figure — one has a dash where the amount should be, and one sits in a PDF whose text layer is corrupted. They are listed with the amount blank rather than as zero, because a grant of nothing and a grant we cannot read are different facts. A further 3 documents are held but yield no recipient list. They are named at the foot of this page, each with the reason, so these rounds do not look empty.
Why this has been so hard to follow
Not a complaint about presentation. Each of these is a specific reason the record resists being added up, and every one was hit building this page.
- Seven programs, no index. Community Project Grants, Environment & Climate Change, RADF, Quick Response, two Alliance streams and Signature Events, published across several pages. Nothing lists what exists, so you cannot tell what you have not found.
- The columns are named eight different ways. The same figure is “Recommended Amount”, “Recommended Funding”, “Recommendation”, “Recommended”, “Amount”, “Funding amount (ex GST)”, “Funding (ex GST)” and “Year 1”.
- Amounts are written inconsistently. RADF writes six thousand eight hundred and sixty as
$6 860, with a space; the community grants write$ 3,000.00. One recipient's amount is a dash. - Multi-year grants look exactly like duplicates. A grant headed “funding per year” appears in every year it is paid, at the same figure. Whether that is one grant listed three times or three payments is decided by a column heading halfway down a page.
- The same award is published twice. Alliance agreements appear both in the grant round that decided them and in the alliance document, matching to the cent.
- One organisation, several spellings. “Noosa Arts Theatre”, “Noosa Arts Theatre Inc” and “Noosa Arts Theatre Inc.” are one theatre. Taken literally they are three, each showing a third of its funding.
- Documents are mislabelled. One outcome PDF is linked under two different round numbers. Another, titled “Round 16 Recipients”, is an acquittal report with a block per project rather than a list of who was funded.
- Some of it is not text at all. Round 15's recipients exist only as a scanned image, and one program's list is a Word document.

Financial years, except the two Regional Arts Development Fund annual rounds, which council names by a bare calendar year with no month — there is nothing to place them by, so they keep the label council gave them.
