Report by Project, Procurement and Open Space Officer (attached).

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report by the Project, Procurement and Open Space Officer (circulated previously) regarding the allocation of section 106 public open space funds to projects in Instow and Braunton.

 

The Project, Procurement and Open Space Officer highlighted the following:

 

·         St John’s Parochial Church Council play area safety surfacing.  Instow had limited equipped play space due to its topography and this project would provide new safety surfacing for the public play area at All Saints Chapel Community Centre.

·         North Devon Environmental Trust, Braunton Countryside Centre – this project would provide audio visual equipment to support sessions within the centre.  The project would use the remaining funds from the section 106 agreement for the development at Land off Higher Park Road, Braunton.

 

RESOLVED:

 

(a)

That £3,672.86 be allocated to Parochial Church Council of Instow towards enhancement of the play area;

 

(b)

That £347.31 be allocated to North Devon Environment Trust towards audio/visual improvements at the Braunton Countryside Centre;

 

RECOMMENDED:

 

(c)

That Council vary the capital programme by £4,020.17 and that funds be released, subject to a Funding Agreement upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed by the Senior Solicitor, for external projects.
