[*Note Paragraph 3 (information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information)) of Part I of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972]

RECOMMENDED TO THE COUNCIL

That the release of £183,938.44 section 106 Community Facilities monies, plus interest accrued to the date of release, to Donnington Parochial Church Council for an extension to Donnington Parish Hall be approved.

[Note In order to accommodate the availability of a CDC member who would be asking a question with reference to agenda item 6 (Risk Management), Mr Dignum said that that item (minute 508) would be taken before this one but in these minutes the published order of business is observed]

The Cabinet received and considered the agenda report and also its confidential exempt Part II appendix, which had been circulated to members and relevant officers only.  

This item was introduced by Mrs Lintill.

Mr Hyland was in attendance for this matter.

In commending to the Cabinet the proposed funding to assist Donnington Parochial Church Council (DPCC) in undertaking the first stage of improvement works to Donnington Parish Hall, which was a well-used community facility, Mrs Lintill summarised sections 3, 5 and 8 of the report. She updated paras 8.1 and 8.2 of the report respectively by advising that (a) the Grants and Concessions Panel had approved a grant of £10,000 to DPCC towards the project and (b) she had approved the section 106 community facilities contribution of £33,990-40 plus interest. She pointed out that DPCC would be covering the shortfall in funding in order to meet the project costs.

Members spoke in support of the release of the section 106 community facilities funding.

In reply to a question Mr Hyland outlined the future stages of the redevelopment project.
