Economic Development and Tourism Grant 2025

Local
City of Duvall

This program provides funding and in-kind support to local non-profit organizations in Duvall, Washington, to promote tourism, economic development, and the arts through community events and initiatives.

Description

The City of Duvall, Washington, is offering the Economic Development & Tourism Grant program for 2025. In 2024, the City awarded approximately $39,000 to local non-profit organizations to support events, arts, cultural programming, and tourism initiatives aimed at benefiting the community. These grants were intended to jump-start or support activities that could become self-sustaining in future years. Additionally, the City funded many in-kind donations such as staff time, fee waivers for banners, permits, and facility rentals, which further supported economic development and tourism efforts.

However, for the 2025 grant cycle, the City Council has not allocated a specific budget amount for the Economic Development & Tourism grants. Instead, the City is opening the program to solicit applications from organizations. These applications will be reviewed by a subcommittee of the City Council, which will evaluate whether any proposals warrant funding adjustments. In exceptional cases, the subcommittee may recommend to the City Council that the 2025-2026 Biennial Budget be amended to approve funding for specific, compelling opportunities or ideas.

In addition to grant funding, organizations applying for fee waivers related to banners, permits, or facility rentals—or those whose events will require significant contributions from the City’s staff, equipment, or resources—should apply through this grant program. This will ensure they can secure the City's in-kind support for their projects.

The program's goal is to stimulate and support activities that promote tourism, economic development, and the arts within the City of Duvall. The City intends to use the grant process as a means to further enhance these areas by supporting local initiatives that align with the City's strategic priorities in these sectors.

The deadline and specific submission requirements for the 2025 Economic Development & Tourism Grant are not provided. The City has emphasized that this year's process is unique, as it is contingent on the review of the submitted applications by the City Council subcommittee. Applicants will need to demonstrate how their projects can contribute to the long-term development of Duvall's economic and tourism activities.

For further details, applicants are encouraged to review the official 2025 Economic Development and Tourism Grant Policy and submit their applications as soon as possible. The City Council’s decision-making process will determine whether any requests for funding will be approved or amended.
