HUNTER councils have confirmed they will apply for a share in $15 million to repair parts of flood-damaged Crown land, with one council saying the grants would provide "improved opportunity" if they were extended to include July floods.
The Crown Land Flood Recovery Funding, announced by the NSW Government on Tuesday morning, will be available in grant form to fix parks, playgrounds, reserves, cultural sites, Crown roads, bridges, drains and other relevant structures damaged by flood events in February and March this year.
