Decision Maker: South Local Area Committee
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
6.1 |
Each Local Area Committee has a £100,000 budget to address local priorities, identified within their respective Community Plans. This report set out details of the proposed spending in respect of this £100,000 during the 2022/23 financial year. The report gave an overview of the general categories of proposed expenditure and sought authorisation from the South Local Area Committee to permit the Community Services Manager, in consultation with the LAC Chair, to spend monies to address identified priorities within the Community Plan. |

Reasons for Decision |

Alternatives Considered and Rejected |

|
6.4.1 |
Decisions on any expenditure above the existing authority to the Community Services Manager could be reserved to the LAC but this would delay delivery of priority actions to address specific issues identified in the Community Plan. |
|
|
6.4.2 |
All decisions on expenditure to support Community Plan priorities could be delegated to officers. However, this would restrict the LAC’s ability to monitor its delegated budget and delivery of the Community Plan. |
