forward in

funded at the full amount requested of £2,000

 
2.

Content

To
accept the recommendations of the Grants Advisory Committee (see
above). In reference to the application from Swavesey Parish Council, it is
recommended that the project is funded through the Community Chest
Grant fund and not the Community Chest Grant Biodiversity
ring-fenced fund.

Reasons for the decision

The
applications were considered in detail by the Grants Advisory
Committee and there is sufficient budget available.

Alternative options considered

To reject or vary the
recommendations of the Grants Advisory Committee and decide on the
level of funding (£0 - £2,000) to be awarded for each
or defer a decision if further information is required from grant
applicants.
