Minutes:

The Locality Officer introduced the report which asked members to consider the awarding of a grant towards all ability access improvements at Ash Village Hall Car Park. He noted all detail was included within the report and he was happy to take any questions.

One member queried the scoring for equalities and diversity under the Community Grants Assessment Score in the agenda report, as the officer assessment score was higher than the maximum score available. The Locality Officer explained that this had been an administrative error on his part.

Councillor Louise Clark commented that she fully supported the project and noted that wheelchair access at the location was difficult at the moment.

There being no further discussion, it was proposed to approve the grant as per the officer recommendation, and on being put to the vote was carried unanimously.
