PDF 360 KB
Minutes:
The Committee received a report from the Community Funding &
Development Manager.
The report outlined applications received to date for 2016-17 funding
for projects in the South Area, made recommendations for awards and provided information
on the eligibility and funding criteria.
In response to Members’ questions the Community Funding &
Development Manager said the following:
i.
Outlined poverty calculation criteria and offered
to forward this to Councillors upon request.
ii.
The indices of multiple deprivation
was used in calculations to give an apportioned figure. This weighting was
approved by Community Services Scrutiny Committee. Officers could return to
Community Services Scrutiny Committee in future to request use of more specific
figures such as fuel poverty if deemed appropriate when reviewing Area
committee funding.
A member of the public made the following comment.
1. Funding
had been requested for the Queen Edith’s Forum 2015 to produce a newsletter.
Community Grant funding had launched the newsletter which was now
self-sufficient. Particular thanks was given to the
council officers for their support.
Following discussion, Members unanimously resolved to
agree the proposed awards detailed in Appendix 1 of the Officer’s report and
