1          Apologies and conflicts of Interest

Members need to stand aside from decision-making when a conflict arises between their role as a Member of the Community Board and any private or other external interest they might have. This note is provided as a reminder to Members to review the matters on the agenda and assess and identify where they may have a pecuniary or other conflict of interest, or where there may be a perception of a conflict of interest.

If a Member feels they do have a conflict of interest, they should publicly declare that at the start of the meeting or of the relevant item of business and refrain from participating in the discussion or voting on that item. If a Member thinks they may have a conflict of interest, they can seek advice from the Chief Executive Officer or the Team Leader Governance Support (preferably before the meeting).

It is noted that while members can seek advice the final decision as to whether a conflict exists rests with the member.

7.6         Application for Funding - Lions Club of Mangonui Charitable Trust

File Number:           A2526649

Author:                    Melissa Wood, Meetings Administrator

Authoriser:              Aisha Huriwai, Team Leader Governance Support

 

Purpose of the Report

To present the Community Board with the information about Lions Club of Mangonui’s application for a Community grant to assist members in determining whether to approve or decline the application.

Executive Summary

·    The Applicant seeks funding for assistance with hosting the Lions District 202K Convention to be held in November 2019

·    The Board has funded the applicant previously for another event

Recommendation

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.

3) Financial Implications and Budgetary Provision

Budgetary Provision has been made and the grant is allocated in accordance with the Community Grant Policy.
