Decision details

RESOLVED:

1. That Cabinet agree to fund the full amount requested of £1,000,000 comprised of:  

·      £1,000,000 of capital funding towards transforming the Haslemere Link Community Hub, to be paid in staged payments, on evidence of spend. 

·      Including 5% to be held by SCC (Surrey County Council) until final evidence of income, expenditure, and final completion such as building control sign-off.

Reasons for Decisions:

This application has been the subject of a rigorous assessment process by officers, as set out in the body of this report. Officers consider the project to meet the aims and published criteria of the fund and to satisfy the requirements to award funding. 

The project aims to transform an existing community building (the Link) in the East of Haslemere into a larger, more useable space and, in addition, to create smaller meeting areas to meet increasing demand.
