Minutes:
This item was moved up the agenda with the agreement of the Chair.
The Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture, submitted a report in response to recommendations by the Grant Advisory Panel (GAP) on suggested changes to the Foreshore Trust small grants and events grants process and the guidelines provided to applicants.
Andrew Colquhoun, the Chair of GAP, presented the panel’s recommendations to the committee. Members of the Charity Committee and GAP had formed a working group to review the application process, forms and guidance for the two grant programmes. The changes proposed as a result of the review would be effective from the next round of small grant allocations in April / May 2017. The panel had requested that the Charity Committee extend the area for activities supported by the events grants programme to include venues and locations north of the A259 but facing the sea.
The panel also requested that the Charity Committee increase the funding available for the two grant programmes. The Assistant Director, Financial Services and Revenues, commented that the committee consider this request as part of their budget setting process.
Councillor Cartwright proposed approval of the recommendations to the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture’s report, which was seconded by Councillor Forward.
RESOLVED (unanimously) that:
1. The recommendations of the GAP as set out in Appendix 1 to the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture’s report, be accepted,
2. The changes to the grant guidance to the Foreshore Trust small grants and events grants programme as set out in Appendix 2 and 3 of the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture’s report, be accepted,
3. The changes to the grant application form as set out in Appendix 4 and 5 of the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture’s report, be accepted, and;
4. To consider further if the amount of funding for the two programmes should be increased and if the boundary line for the Foreshore Trust grants should be extended.
The reason for this decision was:
All the recommendations arise following a joint meeting between members of the Charity Committee and Grant Advisory Panel which took place on 3 January 2017.
