Consultees
Ward Councillors were consulted prior to the consideration of applications by the Grants Advisory Committee.
Purpose of Report: Item 3 – Steeple Morden Bowls Club – the club had its own representation, and The Committee agreed to include the additional items of a strimmer and protective headgear. It was also agreed that a retrospective award be agreed, in this case, for the water heater as this had already been purchased due to a need by the Club.
