Agenda and minutes

The Chairman welcomed everyone to this extraordinary meeting of the Westbury Area Board.

There were no Chairman’s Announcements.

Apologies for absence were received from:

Cllr Francis Morland

Mike Franklin

Sally Hendry, Westbury Community Area Manager

Julia Cramp, Service Director for Commissioning and Performance

There were no Declarations of Interest.

The Area Board considered the following grant applications:

The Chairman introduced this application from Bratton Parish Council for £1,000 towards Jubilee celebrations for the village community and explained that it would have been too late to consider it at the June meeting.

Decision

To approve the grant of £1,000

Reason

The project demonstrates links to the Local Agreement for Wiltshire ambition "Building Resilient Communities”.

Cllr David Jenkins introduced the Area Board led grant and explained that unfortunately there seemed to be less enthusiasm for the project than anticipated.

In view of the lack of support the project had been cancelled and therefore Cllr Jenkins proposed that the grant application be withdrawn.

Decision

To accept the withdrawal of the application

The next meeting will take place on Thursday 14 June 2012 at Heywood Village Hall, Church Road, Heywood, BA13 4LP.

The next meeting of the Westbury Area Board will be held on 14 June 2012 at Heywood Village Hall.
