Decision details

Mr Hyland explained that a request for a variation to a New Homes Bonus (NHB) funding of £2,734, previously awarded for the installation of acoustic tiling and an external awning to the Fishbourne Centre had been received from Fishbourne Parish Council.

My Hyland explained that through regular monitoring of all funded projects it had been identified by Fishbourne Parish Council that the centre management had also decided to look at the installation of air condition, which would be likely to cause conflict with the installation of the proposed acoustic tiling.

Having considered a number of options the Parish Council would like to proceed with the installation of a larger awning (6.5m) to the south of the building.

The panel were supportive of the request and agreed that the proposed variation to the funding awarded to Fishbourne Parish Council be awarded.

RESOLVED BY THE CABINET MEMBER FOR COMMUNITY SERVICES AND CULTURE IN CONSULTATION WITH THE GRANTS AND CONCESSIONS PANEL:

That the proposed variation to funding awarded to Fishbourne Parish Council from the New Homes Bonus (Parish Allocations) 2016 as set out in section 4.1 of the report be approved.

Alternative options considered and rejected:

That the proposed variation to funding awarded to Fishbourne Parish Council from the New Homes Bonus (Parish Allocations) 2016 as set out in section 4.1 of the report be refused.
