· The Board has funded the applicant previously for another event
That the Te Hiku Community Board in considering the provisions of the Community Grant Policy authorise the sum of $3,976 (plus GST if applicable) to be paid from the Board’s Community Fund account to Lions Club of Mangonui Charitable Trust for costs toward hosting the 2019 Lions District 202K Convention. i) Proud vibrant communities ii) Liveable communities that are healthy, safe, connected, and sustainable
|
1) Background
The Mangonui Lions Club works on projects to improve and serve their community and the environment. Their motto is “We Serve”. They are part of Lions Clubs International, a worldwide service organisation. The Lions Club hold conventions as their AGM. Members gather to discuss ideas, gain information and inspiration to support their commitment to their service values. The 202K District extends from Cape Reinga to Te Kauwhata, Thames-Coromandel, and includes Tonga, Fiji, Samoa and American Samoa. The convention is being held at Taipa Area School and Te Ahu in Kaitaia.
2) Discussion and Options
Preliminary assessment of the application:
The applicant has been previously funded by the Board for their fun run event in 2017 and 2018. Project reports have been received.
The convention is open to non-Lions Club members as well as members. There are small registration costs for various events that are part of the convention.
When making its decision the Board should take into consideration how the event might benefit a significant sector of the community as noted in Point 11 of the Community Grant Policy.
Option 1 Authorise 50% of the costs
The applicant has requested $6,331 which is 80% of the costs of hosting the Convention, however this exceeds the amount allowed under the Community Grant Policy which states “Grant funding from any Council source shall not exceed 50% of the total project costs” This has been reflected in the report recommendation.
Option 2 Authorise partial funding of the amount requested
Partial funding of the amount requested could be considered, in alignment with the Board’s strategic approach to allocating grant funding. This could be an amount less than the 50% or an amount assigned to specific costs.
Option 1 is recommended by staff as it complies with the Community Grant Policy.
Reason for the recommendation
This application has been checked by staff for completeness and complies with all conditions of the Community Grant Policy, Community Outcomes as stated in the 2018-28 LTP, and all provisions listed on the application form.
