In accordance with Procedure Rules Nos.11 and 35 a period of 10 minutes is allocated for members of the public to address the meeting on any matter relevant to the work of the body in question.  Individual members of the public may speak for up to 5 minutes but the Chairman or person presiding will decide how the period of time allocated for public speaking will be apportioned where there are a number of speakers. Members of the public are not required to give notice to use this facility. However, as a matter of courtesy, a period of 24 hours’ notice is encouraged.

Members of the public wishing to ask a question at the meeting should provide at least three clear working days’ notice in writing and should include the question with that notice. This will enable an informed answer to be given.

No members of the public were in attendance.

To approve funding requests for Marton Parish Council, and for Weston and Basford Parish Council.

The Cabinet Member considered a report on two applications for Neighbourhood Planning Grant funding.

Applications had been received from Marton Parish Council and Weston and Basford Parish Council for grant funding.  These application had been assessed against the Policy for the Allocation of Neighbourhood Planning Grants, which set out the approach the Council would take to allocate funding to designated bodies preparing neighbourhood plans. 

The report set out the funding requested, highlighting those parts that had been either rejected or subject to the receipt of a lower grant offer, and the reasons for the recommendations made.

RESOLVED:

That approval be given to the funding requests from Marton Parish Council for £3,000, and from Weston and Basford Parish Council for £3,500.
