Minutes:

The Committee considered a report on a grant application made by the Spelthorne Business Forum.

 

The Economic Development Manager introduced the report and highlighted that the money would fund two members of staff enabling them to provide networking events, maintain an online directory and send out communications.

 

The Committee queried whether there were other options such as a loan instead of a grant and were advised that the Business Forum is not able to apply for other sources of funding and that the amount was accounted for in the Economic Development Service Plan for 2025/26.

 

The Committee resolved to recommend to Council to approve the grant application made by the Spelthorne Business Forum.
