|
Community Investment Funding Panel 3 July 2019 |
REPORT R10297
2019/20 Community Investment Fund Agreement Allocation Meeting - Whanake Youth Application
1. Purpose of Report
1.1 To decide on the funding allocation for the 2019/20 Whanake Youth Community Investment Fund (CIF) Agreement Application.
2. Recommendation
2. Background
2.1 At the 2018/19 CIF Agreement Allocation meeting the CIF Panel identified that Whanake Youth would be a strong contender for three year funding. As the organisation was newly established the Panel felt it was prudent to award $20,000 for one year and requested that Whanake Youth reapply for a continuation of the agreement in 2019/20.
2.2 It was confirmed at the Community Services Committee Meeting on 26 February 2019 that there would be no CIF Agreement Funding Round in 2019/20, so the following resolution was agreed on in support of honouring the CIF Panel’s request identified under 2.1:
That the Community Services Committee
Notes that the panel will consider rollover funding from the Community Investment Fund for Whanake Youth of $20,000 p.a. for 2019/20 and 2020/21 on receipt of an acceptable application.
2.4 Whanake Youth was asked to reapply for a CIF agreement in May 2019, they submitted the attached application (attachment one A2201087). This application has been assessed by Council officers (A220988) and it is now up to the CIF Panel to decide whether they wish to fund the application and if so to what amount.
3. Conclusion
3.1 Whanake Youth has been invited to apply for a CIF agreement for 2019/20. Their application has been assessed by officers and the recommendation is to fund the organisation $20,000 p.a. for two years.
