Consideration
Local board views and implications

9. A local board workshop was held on 25 June 2014 to consider the applications to the local event support fund round one. This report reflects the views of local board members expressed at the workshop.
Maori impact statement
10. This fund does not specifically target Maori groups, however Maori communities are likely to benefit from the events supported by the local board, alongside other groups in the community.
11. The decisions sought within this report fall within the local board delegations.
12. The decisions sought do not invoke the Auckland Council Significance Policy.
Implementation
13. Once the Albert-Eden Local Board has resolved the funding applications, staff will contact all applicants to notify them of the outcome, and commence contracting and payment.
