What is the project?
The department's Round 2 funded projects list describes it this way:
The project will upgrade key community venues in Jundah, Stonehenge, and Windorah with energy-efficient LED lighting and essential electrical upgrades. The project will enhance the usability and functionality of these important community hubs, reducing operational costs, improve energy efficiency, and support a wider range of social, sporting, and tourism-related activities. These upgrades will also extend the operational hours of these venues, allowing more comfortable evening events in a region where high daytime temperatures limit activity.
Applicant, location, state and funding are also from that list (page 9).
