Resolution number GBI/2014/133
MOVED
by Member JJ Gilbert, seconded by Member JC Cleave:
That the Great Barrier
Local Board:
a)
Notes that applications total over
$318,000 from a budget of $250,000.
b)
Notes that as it has already allocated
$5,000 from this fund to the Aotea Playcentre stairs project and $2,500 to
the Port Fitzroy wharf re-grouting and that it will consider the community
grant application for Kawa Marae driveway metal as a capital grant
application, the amount available to allocate is less than $250,000.
c)
Notes the constrained budget the board
has this year compared to previous years which means it is not able to fully
fund all projects.
d)
Notes that in confirming amounts to be
funded, the board has taken into account the extent to which the applicant
has been previously funded by the board, and the amount and the extent to
which the applicant is contributing funding itself
e)
Agrees to fund the following
