1.0SUMMARY

1.1. This report considers objections to the proposed Traffic Regulation Order on various roads in the Bradford West Constituency.

2.0BACKGROUND

2.1. At its meeting on the 25 July 2018 this committee approved as part of its Safer Roads Programme, a scheme to introduce a Traffic Regulation Order on various roads throughout the Bradford West Constituency.

2.2. The Order has been promoted to resolve a number of requests for small areas of existing waiting restrictions to be amended or new restrictions to be introduced. The requests have been raised by ward members or local residents and businesses that have problems with on street parking, gaining access to premises or parking for customers.

2.3. The Traffic Regulation Order was formally advertised between the 22 March 2019 and 12 April 2019. At the same time consultation letters and plans were posted to residents and business affected by the proposals. This resulted in five objections to the proposals on Leaventhorpe Lane, one objection from five businesses to Summerville Road, one objection to Grantham Terrace, two objections, of which one was signed by fourteen residents, to Clifton Street five objections to Durham Terrace, one objection to Thorn Street, one objection to Grantham Place and one objection to Hilton Grove. Plans showing the proposals that have received objections are attached as Appendix 1.

2.4. Requests to amend the proposals on Farnham Road and Neal Street have also been received.

2.5. A summary of the points of objection and corresponding officer comments is tabulated below: - Objectors concerns Officer comments Leaventhorpe Lane (Drawing No. HS/TRSS/104121/CON-30A) First objector Parking problem are caused by school staff It is noted that more consultation with and pupils on week days. At weekends residents of Leaventhorpe Lane is required there are also problems with players and before a scheme can be progressed.

This will significantly affect a proposals progressed in a future area wide resident who has a nurse visit 4 times a Traffic Regulation Order. day. The proposals also do not tackle the problems that occur in the evening and at weekends. Visitors won’t be able to park – neighbour has a nurse visit 4 time/day. The objector is requesting permit parking

2 19/06/2019 MAG Page 2 Bradford West Area Committee on all days 8am-8pm including Southlands Avenue.

Second objector Residents won’t be able to park outside houses. Parents ignore the current restriction at the junction with Thornton Road and the SKC markings therefore without constant enforcement the proposals will also be ignored. Family members will not be able to visit during the week and this will be a problem for the objector whose grandchildren are dropped off at 8.30am. The objector is also concerned that the residents in the cottages will have nowhere to park. The objector has requested permit parking as an alternative proposal.

Third objector The objector already is unable to park outside his property because of parked cars from the school and the proposals will not improve the situation for him. The waiting restrictions won’t stop parents parking at drop off and pick up times. The objector has requested permit parking as an alternative proposal.

Fourth objector The objector feels that day time restrictions will not work. When school staff leave the sports centre users, booking all weather pitches, park up to 10pm. This mainly effects the houses nearest the pitches. The objector has requested permit parking as an alternative proposal.

Fifth objector The objector has no off street parking and the proposed waiting restrictions will prohibit him from parking outside his property The objector has suggested permit parking as an alternative proposal.

This convenient parking for the directors and would be better for their customers. staff. This would result in permit holders occupying spaces that could be used by their customers. It is considered that customers would want to park as close to the businesses as possible. Locating the bay to the opposite side of Summerville Road would therefore not benefit customers. Grantham Terrace (Drawing No. HS/TRSS/104121/CON-12A) Objector The objector is dependent on on-street Grantham Terrace is a cul-de-sac with parking but at times there are still not permit parking for residents from Monday enough spaces and he has to park further to Friday between 9am and 5pm.

Clifton Street (Drawing No. HS/TRSS/104121/CON-26A) First Objector (signed by 14 residents) The allocation of 2 permits per business Site visits have shown that the south side will adversely affect the residents to be of Clifton Street is mostly parked up for the

In addition adults have classes and meetings that last until late into the evening with the ensuing traffic. Sometimes there are large gatherings when a well-known Imam or other religious speaker is giving lessons and this has necessitated the school designating some of the young men as traffic monitors. These classes and gatherings are not limited to weekdays but are often held on Saturdays and Sundays. Unlike other residential streets we have school traffic during the day from 8 am until 3 pm followed by evening madrassa classes from 5 pm until 10 pm, Monday to Friday. In addition classes and meetings are often held at weekends. The yellow lines at the bottom of Clifton Street should be reduced in length and designate 2 permit spaces for teachers.

Second objector There is a big issue with parking on Durham Terrace and the loading bay will be a big inconvenience for all residents. The shop is only a small business and they do not get many deliveries (maybe 1 a week).

Third objector The objector is a resident and has spoken to many other residents who reject the proposal to introduce a loading bay.

recommended that the proposal to introduce limited waiting parking Monday to Friday 9am-5pm 2 hours no return within 2 hours except permit holders be abandoned. Hilton Grove (Drawing No. HS/TRSS/104121/CON-19A) Objection The yellow lines will remove on-street The waiting restrictions have been parking for the residents. Not every house promoted following a report that refuse has adequate parking spaces for the vehicles have difficulty gaining access to number of vehicles at the residence so Hilton Avenue and Hilton Grove. many use Hilton Road to park. This causes the objector and other houses opposite and adjacent little but not major inconvenience.

3.0OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

3.1. A business on Farnham Road has requested that the proposed double yellow lines are made longer. When commercial vehicles are parked near the entrance to Grange Industrial Park they obstruct sightlines and it becomes difficult to turn out. As this is a minor modification to the draft Order the process will only require a consultation to be carried out with the businesses in Grange Industrial Park. Any valid objections would be reported to this committee in due course. Details of the modification are shown on the attached drawing No HS/TRSS/104121/CON-3B.

3.2. It is proposed to amended the disabled parking place on St Margaret’s Terrace outside St Columbas Church. However, it is reported that the church has closed therefore it is suggested that a disabled parking bay is no longer required. In view of this it is proposed that local ward members and the church are consulted and if it is resolved that the disabled parking place is no longer required it should be revoked.

4.0FINANCIAL & RESOURCE APPRAISAL

SAFER ROADS DEVOLVED BUDGET – BRADFORD WEST

Page 21 1. SUMMARY

1.1 This report seeks approval for a programme of Safer Roads schemes in Bradford West for 2019/20.

2. BACKGROUND

2.1 The West Transport Strategy 2040 was approved by the Combined Authority (WYCA) in August 2017. In conjunction with the Strategic Economic Plan, the overarching aim of the strategy is “…for City Region to be a globally recognised economy where good growth delivers high levels of prosperity, jobs and quality of life for everyone.”

2.2 The key objectives of the strategy are:

Economy: Create a more reliable, less congested, better connected transport network.

Environment: Have a positive impact on our built and natural environment.

People and place: Put people first to create a strong sense of place.

2.3 In terms of Safer Roads themes, the strategy includes a specific aim to reduce road accidents, aspiring to ‘zero tolerance’ of transport-related deaths. There are also aspirations to encourage walking and cycling by improving safety.

2.4 The Strategy includes a casualty reduction target, similar to that first introduced within the Local Transport Plan. This equates to a 42% reduction in the number of people killed or seriously injured in road collisions (KSI) by 2027. (Using the 2016 KSI figure as a base).

2.5 Historically there were specific budgets for the promotion of Casualty Reduction schemes and more general Traffic Management Measures. Following a significant reduction in the level of funding, this was combined into a single funding stream. Executive devolved the budget to the Area Committees in October 2012, with a provision that 70% of the budget had to be allocated to Casualty Reduction schemes, the residual funding being available for projects prioritised by members.

2.6 The prioritisation of funding for Casualty Reduction schemes has been an important contributor to the continuing downward trend in casualty rates within the district. This has been achieved in partnership with other interventions including Police enforcement and Road Safety education, training and publicity activities. However, the current level of funding dictates that individual Area Committees are restricted in the scale of projects that can be prioritised. The current system also precludes the development of projects of more strategic significance or on a district-wide basis.

2.7 There has been a systematic addressing of locations with notable clusters of recorded traffic collisions. As such, the occurrence of collisions is becoming more sporadic and thus more difficult to target with specific area committee based interventions. Notwithstanding this it is acknowledged that there remains a safety benefit in delivering traffic management schemes in areas where casualty rates are

Page 22 not necessarily high, but where there are concerns about vehicle speeds, severance or more general safety issues.

2.8 In order to address the issues highlighted in paragraphs 2.6 and 2.7 the following revisions to the Safer Roads budget allocation and scheme governance systems for 2018/19 onwards were approved by Executive committee on 12 June 2018:

 Establish a strategic Safer Roads budget to enable the development of larger scale schemes with road safety benefits, with the approval to promote such projects and consideration of any resulting objections being an Executive Member function.

 Funding continues to be distributed to the Area Committees to promote Casualty Reduction schemes as a priority.

2.9 An element of the Safer Roads budget can also be prioritised to address community safety, access, mobility and sustainable transport issues. The determination of proposed schemes programmes takes into account the needs of all road users, including those with special mobility needs, is referred to in the body of this report.

3. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

3.1 It is recommended that the Area Committee re-affirms its commitment to progressing Disabled Persons Parking Places and undertaking mobility access improvement works by again including budgets for these within the 2019/20 programme. The cost of any traffic surveys required to assess requests for traffic management measures and assist in determining future schemes programmes will also need to be met from this budget as these are now generally externally procured to maximise resources.

3.2 It is also suggested that the successful exercise of promoting a constituency-wide Traffic Regulation Order, to include a number of sites where minor amendments to waiting restrictions have been requested, be repeated in 2019/20. (Due to the more extensive processes involved, it would not be feasible to include any larger schemes or Residents Permit Parking Schemes within the constituency-wide Order).

3.3 The Area Committee has previously approved minor lining improvement works on Clayton Lane, following further investigations the proposal did not appear to be merited. Subject to approval of the recommendations within this report, the original proposal would be superseded by the proposed scheme listed in Appendix 1.

4. FINANCIAL & RESOURCE APPRAISAL

4.1 The total Bradford West Safer Roads budget for 2019/20 is £110,000.

4.2 The recommended split between casualty reduction schemes and community- based projects in Bradford West is £70,000 and £40,000 respectively. This is based on the suggested schemes programmes detailed in Appendices 1 and 2.

Page 23 5. RISK MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE ISSUES

5.1 A failure to follow an evidence-based approach and prioritise schemes on the basis of casualty reduction potential would not meet with the overarching aims of the Safer Roads allocation

6. LEGAL APPRAISAL

6.1 There are no specific issues arising from this report. The course of action proposed is in general accordance with the Councils power as Highway Authority and Traffic Regulation Authority.

7. OTHER IMPLICATIONS

7.1 EQUALITY & DIVERSITY

Due consideration is given to Section 149 of the Equality Act 2010 when developing all Safer Roads schemes.

7.2 SUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS

Safer Roads projects are designed to minimise future maintenance implications and the impact on the environment.

7.3 GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS IMPACTS

The implementation of highway safety schemes and projects which encourage sustainable transport modes will potentially reduce harmful emissions.

7.4 COMMUNITY SAFETY IMPLICATIONS

The Safer Roads programme delivers a wide-range of projects including traffic calming, pedestrian crossing facilities, cycling and horse riding provision, speed limit reductions and junction improvements. Such measures, along with partnership activities, form an integral part of improving safety in local communities. Reduction of community severance and community cohesion are two positive outcomes of this programme.

7.5 HUMAN RIGHTS ACT

There are no implications arising from this report.

7.6 TRADE UNION

Report of the Strategic Director, Place to the meeting of Bradford West Area Committee to be held on 19 June 2019 C

Subject:

Annual update on Road Safety in the Bradford District

Summary statement:

This report seeks to update members on current casualty levels and trends in the Bradford District and on the Road Safety education, training and publicity initiatives aimed at reducing these casualties.

Steve Hartley Portfolio: Strategic Director Place Regeneration, Planning & Transport

Report Contact: Sue Snoddy Overview & Scrutiny Area: Team Leader Road Safety Phone: (01274) 437409 Regeneration & Environment E-mail: [email protected]

Page 41 1. SUMMARY

1.1 This report seeks to update members on current casualty levels and trends in the Bradford District and on the Road Safety education, training and publicity initiatives aimed at reducing these casualties.

2. BACKGROUND

2.1 A report on proposals for the devolution of Road Safety funding was considered by the Area Committees in 2012. Members resolved to support an evidence based approach to determine Road Safety priorities. It was also resolved to present an annual ‘State of the Nation’ style report detailing casualty numbers/trends and details of ongoing and proposed road safety education, training and publicity initiatives to the Area Committees.

2.2 The West Yorkshire Transport Strategy 2040 includes a specific aim to reduce road accidents, aspiring to ‘zero tolerance’ of transport-related deaths. There are also aspirations to encourage walking and cycling by improving safety. The strategy includes a casualty reduction target, similar to that first introduced within the Local Transport Plan. This equates to a 42% reduction in the number of people killed or seriously injured in road collisions (KSI) by 2027. (Using the 2016 KSI figure as a base).

2.3 A ‘Road Casualties’ report is published annually. Based on Police Road Traffic Collision records the report identifies casualty reduction priorities for the District. This report takes into account the most recent full year data available, i.e. currently 2018, and trends in comparison to preceding years.

2.4 In 2018 there was an overall decrease in casualties in the Bradford District and the long term downward trend has been maintained. This mirrors the long term downward trend for West Yorkshire. Appendix 1 shows the present position for the Bradford District.

2.5 Public Health (PH) now provides financial support for the Road Safety Team. An Inter Departmental Agreement has been agreed linking the Road Safety Team programme with PH outcomes which include; killed and serious injuries, hospital admissions caused by unintentional injury, infant mortality and mortality rate from causes considered preventable.

2.6 The Road Safety Team operates on a district-wide basis. Staff and financial resources are allocated to education, training and publicity programmes based on priorities identified for greatest impact on casualty reduction. Between August 2018 and July 2019 the team will have delivered the programmes set out in Appendix 2. These programmes are highlighted in the Bradford Metropolitan District Road Safety Plan, which is supported by the Area Committees.

2.7 Car occupants account for the highest number of casualties and are targeted through publicity campaigns and enforcement. Education and training initiatives, delivered at local level, target the 0-19 age group through work with schools, other educational establishments, youth organisations, multi-agency partnerships and Area Coordinator teams.

Page 42 3. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Engagement with schools

3.1 The team provides a three tier district wide service. The first tier is where schools in the top eight wards with the highest child casualties are targeted. The second tier is the delivery of presentations by the team which are booked on a first come first served basis. The third tier is the provision of resources and information for all schools which does not need a road safety officer to deliver. Appendix 3 shows the first and second tier engagement with schools by ward, based on a two year rotation.

3.2 Road safety presentations and delivery focus on core pedestrian and in car safety messages. Presentations in primary schools are tailored to year groups with practical training provided in pedestrian and cycling skills. Secondary school students in year 7 receive Theatre in Education addressing pedestrian issues as they become more independent.

3.3 In 2019 - 2020 the team, will continue to address key issues in the Bradford district identified from the Annual Road Casualties Report, through the activities outlined in Appendix 2.

3.4 Given the relatively small data set for user and demographic groups for individual constituencies, district wide casualty data is more generally used to inform some intervention priorities.

3.5 The West Yorkshire Safer Roads Delivery Group, which comprises of Road Safety Officers from each district, the police and Fire and Rescue, delivers regional road safety campaigns which are data led. Analysis of casualties and causation factors has continued to highlight the vulnerability of 11-12 year old pedestrians with failure to look properly being a major contributory factor. This is addressed through Theatre in Education targeting year 7 students.

Safer Roads schemes

3.6 The Traffic & Highways Area Teams deliver a programme of Safer Roads engineering measures such as traffic calming, pedestrian and cycle facilities, speed limit reductions and parking management. These schemes are funded through the Local Transport Plan and are largely evidence-based to ensure best value in terms of casualty reduction. The Safer Roads schemes programmes are the subject of separate reports to the Area Committees.

4. FINANCIAL & RESOURCE APPRAISAL

4.1 There is a base budget allocation for education, training and publicity staffing from Public Health. A financial contribution from a global West Yorkshire fund will also be available for Bradford Safer Roads delivery.

Page 43 5. RISK MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE ISSUES

5.1 Budget spend on Road Safety is currently prioritised against overall district casualty reduction priorities which are based on analysis of statistical data relating to road casualties. This analysis, underpinned by the District Road Safety Plan priorities, is used to establish key themes of a district-based approach for the following 12 month period. It is anticipated that a failure to maintain this approach would have a detrimental effect on future casualty prevention/reduction.

5.2 Without continued strategic use of resources the ability of the Council to achieve value for money through procurement savings as well as participating in partnership working on West Yorkshire and Yorkshire and Humber campaigns, initiatives and events would be at risk.

6. LEGAL APPRAISAL

6.1 The ongoing activities of the Road Safety team contribute to the Council’s duties under the Road Traffic Act 1988.

7. OTHER IMPLICATIONS

7.1 EQUALITY & DIVERSITY

The Road Safety Team provides a diverse range of road safety programmes and activities that engage with individuals from across the Bradford District.

7.2 SUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS

Report on the Sport England Local Delivery Pilot to the meeting of Bradford West Area Committee to be held on 19th June 2019 D

Subject:

SPORT ENGLAND LOCAL DELIVERY PILOT - AN INTRODUCTION TO THE PROGRAMME OF WORK (FOR INFORMATION ONLY)

Summary statement:

In December 2017 Bradford was selected to become a local delivery pilot for Sport England; one of 12 places nationally tasked to try and better understand what helps people to be active in communities across the country.

Page 51 1. SUMMARY

1.1 Research has shown that low levels of physical activity during childhood and adolescence can have a negative impact on children and young people’s academic achievement, social and life skills as well as their health. The Bradford pilot is funded by Sport England and aims to make a step change in children’s physical activity levels to improve their health and social outcomes. The programme will focus on children aged 5 – 14 and their families and will work with local communities and organisations to increase opportunities for children to be active and support families to enjoy being active for life.

1.2 The Bradford Local Delivery Pilot (LDP) will evaluate the impact of taking a ‘whole systems approach’ to physical activity working closely with a host of local organisations including schools, madrassas, community organisations and local residents. The programme aims to improve the health and social outcomes of children aged 5 – 14 and their families and will take place in a defined area of North Bradford.

1.3 Born in Bradford, a research programme hosted at Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, are leading the pilot and the research element of the programme on behalf of Active Bradford

2. BACKGROUND

2.1 Physical inactivity is linked to serious problems in the city:

• Born in Bradford data has shown that 77% of 5-11 year olds don’t do the recommended 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity each day • 38% leave primary school overweight or obese • 10% fewer Bradford children leave school with 5 GCSEs A*-C grade • One in ten children need support for mental health issues

2.2 Our Place Research is at the heart of the programme and defined the decisions around ‘our place’. A range of factors were taken into account including demographic data, the ability to compare impact on different communities, ability to use Born in Bradford research data and not covering the same area as the Better Start programme.

2.3 The areas selected on this basis are Allerton, Fairweather Green, Toller, Heaton, Manningham, City, Bolton/Undercliffe, Windhill and Eccleshill. The learning from the

2 | Page

Page 52 LDP will be shared across the district and nationally and will inform future policy and practice.

2.4 The LDP has research embedded throughout and will test innovative approaches in order to learn more about what works, sharing its discoveries widely. For example, Our Voice is an initiative that empowers communities to drive change in their local environment. People take photos of their area, feedback their views and from this data, analysed by the team, then decide what changes they would like to see. This is a citizen science model that has been successfully tested with a number of groups locally.

2.5 Where are we? Over the last year researchers from Born in Bradford have spoken with over 1,000 children, their parents and carers to find out what’s important to them in life. This invaluable insight has shown that children enjoy fun, informal sports and activities and would like to be playing out more. An in-depth review of the evidence on children’s physical activity has also been completed. These are shaping the design of the programme which will be developed around four themes; community, environment, organisations and families.

2.6 The neighbourhood approach We are scoping out how to work within natural ‘neighbourhoods’ to deliver a whole system approach to tackling inactivity. We hope to test working in a series of small geographical areas bringing local partners together to deliver the aims may be an effective way of working across the North Bradford area. We will be identifying our initial neighbourhoods shortly.

2.7 We are currently in the planning phase working with partners to mobilise the programme. We will shortly have a new name for our programme, be on social media, and have a dedicated website to communicate with those who want to support our campaign more regularly.

2.8 On the 29th June, we will hold a Fun Festival at Peel Park, from 1 – 3pm, with a range of exciting activities taking place. Local people will be invited to come and enjoy the park, learn more about the pilot and take part in the activities. A similar event at the Lower Grange Community Centre will also take place, where the centre will be hosting a Community Fun Day on the 13th July, where we will be involved in delivering a fun trail of taster activities. The aim is to inspire families to be active. Going forward we aim to establish a range of activities on a regular basis which may include sports, dance, play, walking and cycling.

2.9 Awards programme We are finalising our Awards programme which will be open for applications in the summer. This is for constituted organisations to apply for up to £5000 to explore new ideas and set up physical activity projects that help get less active children and young people more active. More information will be shared once the programme has been launched. 3 | Page

Page 53 3. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

3.1 Further information on developments Our Community Engagement Managers are building relationships with local people who are key to making the pilot a success. They are working with local sport and physical activity providers to map out what is available to the public at this point in time and find out how many people attend the different sessions. This data will also be used as part of the research element of the pilot.

3.2 In May we held 4 ‘taster’ sessions within schools in the area: St Cuthbert and the First Martyrs’ Catholic Primary in Manningham, Fagley Primary, Westminster CE Primary Academy and The Academy at St James in Allerton. The purpose of this was to introduce children to different types of physical activity, some of which they may not have been exposed to before now. It allowed them to explore and find out what interests them, hopefully providing them with the motivation to want to do more.

3.3 Over the summer holiday we will work with local providers to run fun activities in Bradford West including West Park and The Academy at St James’s and other locations. We hope to inspire and energise people living in the area to move more and play in their local parks.

3.4 We are also looking to join up with other campaigns and initiatives that are happening in the area to strengthen key messages and encourage as many people as possible to come together and support children and young people to be more active.

3.5 During July we will hold several events for partners to learn more about the pilot and meet the team. Once these dates have been finalised we will be in touch.

4. FINANCIAL & RESOURCE APPRAISAL

COMMUNITY CHEST 1 APRIL 2018 TO 31 MARCH 2019

Summary statement:

This report summarises the Community Chest Grants awarded in the financial year 2018 to March 2019 for the benefit of communities within Bradford West Constituency.

Steve Hartley Portfolio: Director of Place Neighbourhoods and Community Safety

Report Contact: Noreen Akhtar Overview & Scrutiny Area: Phone: (01274) 432597 E-mail: [email protected] Corporate

Page 57 1. SUMMARY

1.1 This report summarises the Community Chest Grants awarded in the financial year 2018 to March 2019 for the benefit of communities within Bradford West Constituency.

2. BACKGROUND

2.1 The Community Chest budget is intended to assist community, leisure and cultural activities which are of benefit to the community, and where the activity could not go ahead without some financial assistance.

2.2 Applications which meet the published criteria are considered from groups, organisations and individuals contributing across a broad spectrum of initiatives, to the well being and development of communities within the Bradford West Constituency.

2.3 The Senior Administrative Officer, within the Bradford West Area Co-ordinator’s Office, assesses the applications and prepares an Officer recommendation in consultation with the Area Co-Ordinator.

2.4 The Area Co-ordinator, under delegated powers, is responsible for making decisions on the applications in consultation with the Grants Advisory group. The Grants Advisory Group is traditionally made up of the Chair, Vice Chair and two members of the Labour Group who all serve on the Area Committee. In Bradford West in 2018/19 the Grants Advisory Group was the Chair and two Members.

2.5 It is also possible, when decisions need to be taken outside the formal process that the Area Co-ordinator can decide on an application, having consulted individually with the Chair of the Grants Advisory Group members.

2.6 The Community Chest budget available for Bradford West Area in the current financial year is £11,500.

2.7 Between 1st April 2018 and 31st March 2019 40 Community Chest applications were awarded a total of £15,100.00. Which included £3,600.00 of the remaining balance from 2017-2018 which came under the Better Use of Budgets.

2.8 In 2018 a decision was taken to allocate £203.64 to the Bradford West Office towards environmental resources for the Bradford West area.

2.9 The summary of Community Chest Grants awarded during 1st April 2018 to 31st March 2019, is attached as Appendix A.

3. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

3.1 The maximum amount available to community/voluntary groups from the Community Chest Grant is £500.

Page 58 3.2 With regards to the Community Chest grant allocation for 2018/2019, it is important to highlight both the take-up and very high demand on the fund.

3.3 Because of the very high demand on the limited Community Chest budget, it has been a practice of the Bradford West Grants Advisory Group to make a contribution towards the total cost of the activity.

3.4 Community groups, voluntary organisations and individuals applying for grants are given support from the Bradford West Area Co-Ordinator's Office and encouraged to raise funds from other sources.

3.5 The Grants Advisory Group at its meeting on 15 February 2018 agreed that organisations requesting Community Chest grant funding must return their completed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) within a 3 month period from the date it was posted. Failure to do so will make the organisation ineligible for the funding and they will have to reapply.

4. FINANCIAL & RESOURCE APPRAISAL

4.1 The total number of applications funded in this period was 40 towards activities and projects for the communities in Bradford West (Appendix A).

4.2 The Community Chest budget for Bradford West for the financial year April 2018 to March 2019 was £15,100.00.

5. RISK MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE ISSUES

There are no significant risks arising from the proposed recommendations in this report.

6. LEGAL APPRAISAL

6.1 There is no legal requirement for the Council to provide small grants for the benefit of local communities.

7. OTHER IMPLICATIONS

7.1 EQUALITY & DIVERSITY

In awarding Community Chest Grants, special consideration is given to particular disadvantaged groups including the elderly, people with disabilities, youth, ethnic minorities and people who are unemployed.

7.2 SUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS

3.1 As the naming of a new street after any individual is a sensitive matter, to be given very serious consideration, and is usually only approved in exceptional circumstances, it is sensible to provide an alternative suggestion in the event that the Committee does not approve this proposal. In this particular case, should the Committee not be minded to approve this proposal;

The name “St Judes Close” will be the allocated street name following consultation with the Ward Councillors as part of the current Policy and Protocol.

4. OPTIONS

4.1 To name the street ‘Lillian Armitage Close’. The alternative street name suggestion put forward is St Judes Close.
