Report by the Director of Law and Assurance.

 

The Committee is asked to note the report which outlines the decision to introduce a ‘micro fund’ as part of the Community Initiative Fund for smaller scale projects.

Minutes:

8.1     The Committee considered a report by the Director of Law and Assurance (copy appended to the signed minutes).

 

8.2     Mr Chisnall introduced the report and explained that the Cabinet Member for Safer, Stronger Communities had made a decision to introduce a micro fund following feedback received from groups relating to small projects.  Applications to the micro fund would be for projects with a total cost of £750 and would not be made on the West Sussex Crowd.  Applications would come to the County Local Committee (CLC) meetings for a decision.  CLCs were expected to allocate 30% of their budget to micro fund applications, but this was discretionary.

 

8.3     The decision had cleared call-in and was now live so the fund was available for applications.

 

8.4     Resolved – That the Committee note the report.
