ARE BRIGG WHEELERS ON TRACK FOR GRANT?



Brigg Town Council has deferred a request for a grant from Brigg Wheelers - based at the Skatepark, Scawby Brook.
A request is to be made for further information from the organisation before the town council’s policy committee decides whether or not to release any cash.
Coun Mike Campion suggested seeking clarification about what the Wheelers need to spend money on.
At the same meeting, councillors had to decline, with regret, after being asked to help the Brigg and District Senior Citizen's Pop-In Centre, on Cary Lane.
The council cannot make grants for projects that have already been carried out, and it was suggested that new carpets had already been laid at the centre.
A request for financial assistance from Northern Lincolnshire CPRE was declined.
The policy committee approves small grants to organisations and groups of up to £250.
Applications to the town council for assistance must include details of why the money is needed and be accompanied by a statement of accounts.
The town council has helped many clubs and societies in this way, over many years.
The authority is based in the Angel Suite, off Exchange Place, and can be contacted by email - enquiries@briggmarkettown.co.uk
