(Document 24/104)

The Group Manager: Community Wellbeing & Services, Rebekah Dinwoodie, spoke to the agenda report on behalf of the Manager Community Development, Kirstin Thompson, supported by the Community Grants and Partnerships Advisor, Kev Carter.

Rebekah backgrounded the report and responded to a number of questions from the subcommittee members.  Officers were asked to clarify the current situation and what was proposed in the report.

Extensive discussion took place regarding the most appropriate mechanism by which to fund the Connect Community Trust.  The most appropriate options and timing needed to achieve the integration of this funding into the Multi-year community grants scheme were also discussed, together with the financial effects of each of these options.

The subcommittee then considered the report recommendations.  It was clarified that the reference to “carpark”, in Recommendation “C’ of the report, referred to an overall carparking area rather than an individual carpark space.

The subcommittee, as a whole, did not support Recommendation “C” and it was not included in the subsequent Motion addressed under this item.  

While some members did not support Recommendation “B”, Recommendations A” and “B” were Moved, Seconded and voted on together and were supported by the majority of the subcommittee.

Additional wording was then discussed, becoming a new Part “C”, as shown in the separate resolution in these minutes.
