Issue - meetings

To confirm the minutes of the meeting held on Monday 19 July 2010 and the address any matters arising.

The Chairman announced that, following the last meeting of the Area Board, the Community Area Grant application from Zouch School had been withdrawn. The reason for this was because the school had not achieved the lottery grant of £10,000 due to the school’s income being too high for that particular grant scheme. Val Powley was now working with the school to work on an alternative proposal which would be considered at an upcoming meeting of the Area Board.

Also at the last meeting of the Area Board was the announcement that Ludgershall Fire Cadets was at risk due to discontinued funding from the Fire Authority. The Cadets group had calculated that the sum of £984 was required for the Cadets to continue for the remainder of this financial year. The group could contribute half of this sum itself and would be looking for a grant to cover the second half. The Chairman advised that a formal proposal should be brought to the November meeting for the Area Board to consider.
