The Community Engagement Officer presented the report entitled Grants and Community Update together with the following appendix:
· Appendix 1 – 2021/2 Financial Year Budget Sheet
He advised Members that:

· £1,500 had already been taken out of the budget for the Free After Three parking initiative;
· If the Committee was minded to award the grants as requested at this meeting and continued to fund the Free After 3pm parking initiative, this would leave a remaining budget of £3,351 for the rest of the year.
