Minutes:

The Area Development Lead (North) introduced the report and advised that although a Big Lottery Awards for All grant had been received towards the roofing project, the roofing contractor had advised bringing forward the guttering and fascia board work while the scaffolding was in place.  This would be Phase 2 of the planned works.  The Village Hall Committee had a maintenance plan and their sinking fund had contributed £5,000 towards the project. The proposed SSDC grant would represent 22% of the project.

 

In response to a question, the Area Development Lead (North) confirmed that Phase 1 work had commenced as conditioned by the Big Lottery Awards for All funding programme.

 

During a short debate, Members were fully supportive of the proposed works and unanimously confirmed the grant of up to £3,475 to Stocklinch Village Hall Committee towards the cost of roofing repairs.
