A report providing the Area Committee with an update on the
effective use of the funding provided by the Council to Helensburgh Festive
Lighting Charitable Trust (HFLCT) to provide festive lighting in Helensburgh in
2017; as well as updating on the overall financial position, was

Committee to determine a new funding request from HFLCT for 2018 and 2019.
Decision
The Area Committee:-
- Endorsed the effective
delivery of festive lighting by the Helensburgh Festive Lighting
Charitable Trust (HFLCT) in 2017, which was made possible with funding
provided from the Council;
- Agreed to award a grant of
up to £10,000 to HFLCT for Christmas 2018 subject to the submission of
satisfactory audited annual accounts and the conditions outlined at
Appendix Three;
- Agreed to delegate
authority to the Executive Director of Development and Infrastructure to
allocate the remaining balance of the festive lighting funds for the
Helensburgh and Lomond area pro rata to HFLCT for Christmas 2019 subject
to the Council confirming the decision of the EDI Committee made in March
2018;
- Noted that in granting
this funding request the remaining monies should be more than adequate to

Helensburgh and Lomond villages, and that discussions on future
arrangements in these areas continue; and

report come back to the September Area Committee meeting.
