GRANTS & COMMUNITY UPDATE

21/11/2019 - GRANT APPLICATIONS AND COMMUNITY UPDATE

Councillor Jim McNally and The Communities Engagement Officer updated the Committee on recently held, and forthcoming Baldock Community Events.

 

RESOLVED:

 

(1)       That funding should be initially allocated from the 2018/19 carry forward and not the 2019/20 base budget;

 

(2)       That the actions taken by the Community Officer to promote greater community capacity and well-being for the Baldock be endorsed.

 

REASONS FOR DECISIONS:

 

(1)       To ensure the Committee is kept informed of the work of the Community Engagement Team;

 

(2)       To inform Members of the financial resources available to the Committee. It draws attention to the current budgetary situation by assisting in the effective financial management of the Area Committee’s budget. This ensures that all actions are performed in line with the Authority’s Financial Regulations, the Council’s Constitution, and the guidance of the existing Grants policy as agreed by Cabinet in June 2016.
