Decision details

Cabinet has approved and Cheshire East Council has put in place a Policy for the Allocation of Grants to Voluntary and Community Organisations 2015/16.  This Policy deals with the allocation of community grants which are awarded to defined Organisations following an application process and against set criteria.  There are conditions requiring that Organisations report back to the Council upon expenditure of the grant and to enable further appropriate conditions to be imposed.  The decision making process was delegated to the Portfolio Holder in order ensure that decisions can be made expeditiously and at the appropriate level.

The grants considered had ben submitted in the first round of grants for 2016/17 and could all be funded from within existing budgets approved as part of the Council’s Budget for 2016/17.
