This report seeks the allocation of
£50,000 Neighbourhood CIL funding to Sustainable Merton
Community Champions 2020-21 Programme.
The recommendation comes in advance of the consideration of bids
submitted under the Neighbourhood Fund 2020 bidding round –
to be brought to Cabinet for a decision in September 2020 –
due to the need for funding to be secured before September for the
Community Champions programme to be delivered.
A Cabinet decision is required as approving funding at such a stage
would be a departure from Neighbourhood CIL governance approved by
Cabinet in September 2017.
