East Hampton EDC reviews T‑Mobile Hometown Grant opportunity; March 31 application window noted
Summary
At its Feb. 17 meeting, the East Hampton Economic Development Commission reviewed T‑Mobile’s Hometown Grant program, discussed potential local applicants and noted a March 31 application deadline and requirements including five letters of support.
At its Feb. 17 meeting the Town of East Hampton Economic Development Commission reviewed details of T‑Mobile’s Hometown Grant opportunity and discussed possible local applicants.
The commission noted the grant program provides multi‑year funding; meeting materials referenced a broader program total and said applicants may request up to $50,000 per project. Members also recorded that there is a grant pool earmarked for distribution in 2026 and that applications require five letters of support. The meeting minutes instruct members to forward the grant information to local groups such as EPOCH Arts, the public library and the senior center for consideration.
No formal motion was taken on the grant at the Feb. 17 meeting; members agreed to circulate application details to prospective applicants and to review materials ahead of a future meeting. The commission also asked Town Planner Juliet Hodge to distribute grant information to interested organizations.
Because application requirements include multiple letters of support, local groups planning to apply were advised to begin outreach promptly; the meeting recorded an application deadline in March (materials show March 31). The commission did not vote on applying as a body and did not authorize town matching funds at this meeting.
