Members agreed that this project was a success story. The Portfolio Holder informed Members that future applications for project funding would now be referred to herself. Applications had to contain funding for maintenance. It was noted that £40k had been allocated to each Ward. If no applications were received from a particular Ward, the funding would not be re-allocated to a different Ward. In due course, officers would help to support Friends’ Groups in those wards where applications had not been received. 

RESOLVED that the Environment and Community Services PDS Committee note the progress made on the delivery the Platinum Jubilee Parks Fund during the first year of implementation, including the change in decision maker.
