Comments

1.       The implementation of the new Community Grants Policy commenced on 1 July 2015. The policy supports each local board to adopt a grants programme for 2015/2016 and the Waitemata Local Board adopted its grants programme on 21 May 2015.

2.       The local board revised their grant programme at their December 2015 meeting as follows:

b)           That the Waitematā Local Board:

i)       establishes an Accommodation Grant in 2015/2016 with a budget of $125,000, utilising its 2015/2016 Central Joint Funding Committee budget.

ii)       Adopts the updated Waitemata Local Board Grants Programme to include additional exclusions and  the eligibility and criteria for the Accommodation Grant and the Local Events Development  Fund. (WTM2015/206). See Attachment A.

3.       Applicants to the accommodation fund needed to meet the definition of a community organisation as outlined in the community grant policy as follows:

·        not for profit, charitable and voluntary organisations

·        membership or participation is available for anyone who wishes to join

·        the organisation has a formal legal structure and founding documents, such as a constitution, which sets out governance and management arrangements consistent with their charitable mission

4.       Additional criteria for the accommodation grant was set in place at the local boards December 2015 meeting (WTM2015/206) (Attachment B).

5.       The Waitemata Local Board offered one accommodation support round this financial year and has a budget of $125,000 to be allocated to successful applicants towards their accommodation costs for the 2016/2017 financial year. The Accommodation Grant round closed on 7 March 2016.

6.       Thirty eight applications were received with a total of $610,363.55 requested. (Attachment C). The local board is required to fund, part-fund or decline these applications.

Consideration

Local Board views and implications

7.       Local boards are responsible for the decision-making and allocation of local board community grants. The Waitemata Local Board is required to fund, part-fund or decline these grant applications against the local board priorities and criteria identified in the local board grant programme.

Māori impact statement

8.       The provision of community grants provides opportunities for all Aucklanders to undertake projects, programmes, activities that benefit a wider range of individuals and groups, including Maori. As a guide for decision-making, in the allocation of community grants, the new community grants policy supports the principle of delivering positive outcomes for Maori.

Implementation

9.       The allocation of grants to community groups is within the adopted Long Term Plan 2015-2025 and local board agreements.

10.     Following the Waitemata Local Board allocating funding for this accommodation support round, Commercial and Finance staff will notify the applicants of the local board decision.
