L-01-21 - Area Board Funding Decisions - Online Meetings

Decision Maker: Leader of the Council and Cabinet Member for Military-Civilian Integration, Health and Wellbeing, Economic Development, Arts, Heritage, and Tourism

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

This report sets out funding decisions requested from Area Boards between 25 May - 11 June 2021.

 

Area Board meetings have been held online and have been accessible to the public via Microsoft Teams for those wishing to take part and contribute to discussions on grant funding. In addition, meeting recordings could be viewed through a link provided on the agenda and meeting page from the council website (published 5 clear days in advance).

 

This report seeks a decision from the Leader of the Council to confirm funding decisions, following the discussions and recommendations at the Area Board meetings. It is not possible for the Area Boards to formally make the decisions at this time as they are unable to meet in person on public-health advice due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

 

Decision:

Following consultation with officers and consideration of any public feedback, I give notice that I intend to determine all funding decisions taken at Area Boards held online between 25 May to 11 June 2021.

 

Details of all funding applications considered by Area Boards during that time is available via the links to supporting documents below.

 

If you would like to make any representations to me on this issue please do so by 21 June 2021 via the relevant Area Board.

 

c/o Democratic Services Officer Lisa.moore@wiltshire.gov.uk

Reasons for the decision:

To ensure determination of Area Board funding decisions in a timely manner.

Alternative options considered:

All funding decisions taken between 25 May and 11 June 2021 would be considered on a Board by Board basis and presented to the Leader on a fortnightly basis.

Other reasons / organisations consulted

The Leader will make funding decisions following discussion and subsequent questions of the Area Board members and members of the public.

 

All funding bids will be detailed within the agenda packs for the relevant Area Boards and available to view online (available 5 days prior to the meeting dates). Members of the public wishing to make representations on the funding decisions should feed this in at the relevant Area Board meeting to be factored into the Board’s recommendation to the Leader. An account of any feedback and recommendations made at each Area Board will be presented to the Leader.
