SHOP<\/strong> \u2013Cllr Johnstone advised that just before the last PC meeting we found out that the \u00a3100K that had been offered linked to the High Street development was only available if ‘match funded’ which means that any monies raised by the village would be matched by Shires Farms. Cllr Johnstone confirmed that he had been in correspondence with at least 10 different funding organisations and unfortunately there are issues with our eligibility for funding. This is because the shop is a commercial enterprise run by tenants so is a shop in the community and not run by the community. Also because the shop is now owned by the PC it is owned by the council so any funding would be deemed as helping the council. Cllr Bush advised whether transferring the shop in to a trust would alter the eligibility. It was agreed that in the first instance a letter would be sent to Shires Farms to obtain in writing any caveats attached to the \u00a3100k offer and explain the present funding situation.<\/p>\n

WB advised whether transferring the shop to a trust would help which Cllr Johnstone replied could be an option.<\/p>\n

It was agreed that Cllr Johnstone would draft a letter to Shires Farm and explain the current situation regarding match funding.<\/p>\n

PAVILION <\/strong>\u2013 Cllr Johnstone asked whether there was a storage heater still not working. TY to ask Cllr Caldwell along with asking whether any further funding was required.<\/p>\n
