Minutes:

Members were supportive of the application and although the request was slightly over the anticipated budget, it could be covered from funds unused for the 2021 Witney Carnival, also run by the Rotary Club.

 

Resolved:

 

That, the request for £2,100 from the Rotary Club of Witney towards the Witney Christmas Lights Switch-on event be granted.

 

That the grant be awarded under the General Power of Competence and that the Council’s financial contribution be acknowledged on any promotional literature accompanying the event.
