- Have not received any assistance from this project.
In order to support as many condominiums as possible within a limited budget, we provide assistance only once per Residential Association.
Even if the amount of the first subsidy has not reached the maximum subsidy, the second subsidy application cannot be made regardless of the application year.
4 Subsidy amount
4-1 One-third of the cost required for construction such as barrier-free facilities (up to 300,000 yen)
One-third of the cost required for construction work such as barrier-free construction (rounded down to the nearest thousand yen) excluding consumption tax equivalent
※1 Subsidy is limited to 300,000 yen per Residential Association.
※2 In the case of construction work related to the installation, the lower amount of 300,000 yen per Residential Association or 8,000 yen per dwelling unit.
4-2 Example of subsidy amount
Example 1 In the case of a slope installation with a construction cost of 600,000 yen
600,000 yen x 1/3 = 200,000 yen will be subsidized
Example 2 In the case of stairs handrail installation with a construction cost of 300,000 yen and the number of dwelling units of 20 units
300,000 yen x 1/3 = 100,000 yen
20 units x 8,000 yen = 160,000 yen
100,000 yen is the subsidy amount because it is 100,000 <160,000.
