Purpose

To consider the awarding of
Rural England Prosperity Fund grants to organisations in the
District.

Content

To
approve the award of Rural England Prosperity Fund grants to
organisations in the district.
 

Reasons for the decision

To enable the Council to make
use of the Rural England Prosperity Funding allocated to it by
Government and to approve applications by organisations in the
district which will help the Council to deliver the outputs and
outcomes set out in the REPF Local Investment Plan
addendum.

Alternative options considered

Not to approve the
applications.  To do so may risk failing
to spend the allocation available and not delivering the outputs
and outcomes expected of the Council.
