Decision details

The Executive considered 3 grant applications to the Council’s Community Fund Grant Scheme. Members considered each application, noting the impact that each project would have and the reserves held by each organisation.

The Executive received a detailed breakdown of the remedial works planned at the Chobham Village Hall and noted that the application from the West Ends Bowls Club had not been fully completed and lacked the requisite 2 quotes for the work planned.

It was noted that the level of reserves held by applicants to the Community Grants Scheme were not factored in when considering awards from the scheme and it was suggested by some Members that this should be included in the criteria for assessing any future awards.

RESOLVED

                        (i)          that the following grants be awarded from the Council’s Community Fund Grant Scheme:

                       (ii)          to defer the application from West End Bowls Club for a contribution towards the extension the Clubhouse facilities, pending the submission of quotes.
