LOCAL COMMITTEE COMMUNITY SAFETY BUDGET 2016/17

[EXECUTIVE DECISION FUNCTION]

The Local Committee has a delegated budget of £3,000 for community

safety projects. Traditionally the Committee has agreed to delegate

this funding to the community safety partnership in Guildford (the

Safer Waverley Partnership). The Committee is being asked this year

to consider retaining control of funding and allocate it based on the

merits of individual proposals.

The Local Committee (Guildford) agreed that:

(i)    The delegated Community Safety budget of £3,000 per Local Committee for 2016/17 is to be retained by the Community Partnership Team, on behalf of the Local Committee, and that the Community Safety Partnership is invited to submit proposals that meet the criteria and principles for funding, as defined at paragraph 2.6 of this report.

(ii)   Authority is delegated to the Community Partnership Manager, in consultation with the Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Local Committee, to authorise the expenditure of the Community Safety budget in accordance with the criteria and principles stated at paragraph 2.6 of this report.

(iii)  The Committee receives a report detailing the projects that were successful in being awarded the local community safety funding and the outcomes and impact they have achieved.  

This report was introduced by the Chairman.  It was noted that the Local Committee had a delegated budget of £3,000 for community safety projects and this report recommended the introduction of a simple process enabling the Local Community Safety Partnership and other organisations to outline their planned spend for projects that meet the criteria.
