4). Budget update 2023/24:
Prior to the meeting, the Clerk circulated an updated report detailing balances and expenditure to date against the budget.
This report was discussed and accepted by members. It was noted that although the budget showed an overspend on the Coronation event, the project did come in under budget due to the additional grants awarded.
5). To consider the Deeds and Insurances:
Members considered the updated deeds and insurances summary report provided by the Clerk and were confident all was in order.
6). To consider the current Business Plan to ensure it is in line with current plans:
It was agreed that the Business Plan needs updating. The Clerk would contact Cllr. Reid to request a meeting of the working group to review the content. The plan needs to be updated in time to inform the upcoming budget planning process. The group could also consider whether the plan would benefit from a longer term view rather than focus on short term budget allocations which makes it more subject to change.
7). Consideration of Grant Requests:
- Bishops Lonsdale PTFA Charity – new play equipment: the committee were very supportive of the project which would provide excellent additional play facilities at the primary school. It was noted that the contribution needs to ensure sufficient funds are still available from the £6,000 annual budget to support other applications up until the end of March 2024. It was resolved to recommend a grant of £1,000 to be awarded.
