At its meeting of 18th January 2023, Council
approved the use of UKSPF funds to promote sustainability works,
notably to reduce carbon emissions, and to deliver the
council’s Cultural Strategy.
At the same meeting, Council delegated decision-making authority to
the Head of Housing and Health, acting in consultation with the
Executive Member for Environmental Sustainability regarding
environmental grants and contracts and in consultation with the
Executive Member for Communities regarding cultural
activities.
The grants will contribute to works at five village halls which
have been identified in decarbonisation assessments, previously
funded through the UKSPF, conducted by Utility Aid. They will
contribute to lowering the carbon emissions of the halls.
Another grant is being made to Community Alliance Broxbourne and
East Herts for work to follow-on from their previously funded
developmental and administrative support for the Arts in East Herts
programme. This grant will fund works to support the continuation
of the programme beyond the UKSPF funding period.
