Seems to be a bit more than terracing.
CARRICK RANGERS FC RECEIVE GREEN LIGHT FOR TWO NEW STANDS
Planning permission has been approved for two new stands at Carrick Rangers Football Club.
"The existing west stand at Taylor’s Avenue will be demolished to make way for a replacement which will be able to accommodate up to 568 fans.
There will also be provision for new changing rooms, toilets and first floor viewing lounge and educational and training rooms, turnstiles and security/media tower.
There will also be a new 635-seater east stand and repositioning of floodlights and fencing."
As for funding:
"Earlier this week, the Department for Communities (DfC) was urged to progress the distribution of funding earmarked for investment in football grounds in Northern Ireland which would contribute to finance for development of the new facilities at Carrick Rangers.
Mid and East Antrim Borough Council in association with Carrick Rangers, Larne FC and Ballymena United is bidding for £17m funding.
In 2015, the Northern Ireland Executive allocated £36m for a stadia funding programme for local football. Following the return of power-sharing at Stormont in January this year, the Executive stated its intention to complete the programme.
The three clubs recently submitted their responses to a DfC evidence-gathering survey on regional stadia facilities in Northern Ireland which aimed to identify strategic priorities for the development of soccer and on Tuesday a meeting took place with DfC officials to press for funding."

Even for the three clubs combined, I'd say they haven't a hope of getting £17m, but maybe they mean a portion of the £17m left over after Glentoran get their (promised) £10m for The Oval and DCFC get something similar for The Brandywell, as previously rumoured? (My speculation)
