Communities use these grants for a wide range of projects including: surveys, National Register nominations, preservation planning resources, and even some bricks-and-mortar projects.
In recent years, the Idaho SHPO has distributed over $100,000 annually to CLGs. Because of the CLG program, over $2 million dollars have been injected directly into local communities since 1983.
