Lower Melville Wood Wind Turbine Community Payment
Report by: Ken Gourlay, Head of Assets, Transportation and Environment
Wards Affected: Wards 17, 18, 19, 20, 21
Purpose The purpose of this report is to present Councillors with options to manage community benefit payments from the Council’s wind turbine at Lower Melville Wood.
Recommendation(s) It is recommended that Councillors delegate to Head of Assets, Transportation & Environment the arrangements for the Giffordtown Community Council to receive and distribute community payments from the wind turbine income stream.
Resource Implications None noted.
Legal & Risk Implications These arrangements would satisfy the Feu Disposition controlled by Scottish Government for the Lower Melville Wood landfill site in respect of construction of the wind turbine.

Consultation Councillor Heer, Councillor Lothian, Councillor McDiarmid.
9
1.0 Background
1.1. Fife Council constructed a 500kW wind turbine on the Lower Melville Wood landfill site near Ladybank. During the planning process a Feu Disposition controlled by Scottish Government was highlighted. Scottish Government have asked that, to see discharge of the Feu Disposition in respect of the wind power development, rather than the Council making a financial settlement with the Government, the Council may wish to consider making a financial allocation available to local community group(s). Scottish Government suggested this be in line with the guidelines applying to commercial developers, which in this case would be an allocation of £2,500 per annum, index linked for the operational lifetime of the project.
1.2. The Guidelines recommend consideration of “every community council which the application site covers, and any community council which has a direct border with the application site”. The landfill facility lies within the area of the Giffordtown & District Community Council. It has a small boundary coinciding with that of the Ladybank Community Council.
1.3. The Committee’s approval to allocate the funds to Giffordtown & District Community Council is now sought.
2.0 Issues and Options
2.1 Through the Planning process for the wind turbine construction, Scottish Government referred Fife Council to the community benefits guidance. To discharge the Feu Disposition in respect of the wind power development, Scottish Government may have required Fife Council to make a financial settlement with the Government. However, Scottish Government suggested that the Council may wish to consider making a financial allocation available to local community group(s) in line with the onshore wind community benefits guidance.
2.2 Options were discussed with local Councillors in 2015 prior to construction, with a broad consensus that the community benefit payment should be made to Giffordtown Community Council. The landfill facility lies within the area of the Giffordtown & District Community Council.
2.3 Contact with the local councillors in October 2019 confirmed the 2015 preference to enable payment arrangements to be made of £2,500 pa, index linked for the operational lifetime of the project.
3.0 Conclusions
3.1 Fife Council’s construction of the 500kW wind turbine at the Lower Melville Wood wind turbine is proposed to contribute £2,500 pa to support community benefit, in line with the Scottish Government guidance on good practice principles for Community benefits from onshore renewable energy developments.

4th December 2019 Agenda Item No. 7
Proposed Waiting Restriction – Shoregate, Crail
Report by: Ken Gourlay, Head of Assets, Transportation & Environment
Wards Affected: Ward 19 – East Neuk and Landward
Purpose
The purpose of this report is to allow the North East Fife Area Committee to consider proposals for extending the existing ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ restrictions on Shoregate, Crail.
Recommendation(s)
It is recommended, in the interests of traffic management and road safety, that Committee:
1. Agrees to the promotion of a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) to introduce the restrictions detailed in drawing no. TRO/19/53, with all ancillary procedures; and
2. Authorises officers to confirm the Traffic Regulation Order within a reasonable period unless there are objections.
Resource Implications
The cost to formally promote this TRO and deliver the associated traffic management works will be approximately £1,000, which covers Roads & Transportation Services’ and Legal Services’ staff cost, advertising and delivery of the new infrastructure. Costs will be recovered from the Developer of the site opposite.
Legal & Risk Implications
There are no known legal or risk implications.
Impact Assessment
The general duties section of the impact assessment and the summary form have been completed. No negative impacts have been identified.
12
Consultation
The local Ward Councillors, Community Council and Parking Management team have been advised.
Formal consultation required by the Roads Traffic Regulation Act 1984 for the TRO process will be carried out through the posting of legal notices in a local newspaper and on the affected length of roads. In addition, details of the proposed TRO will be made available on the Fife Council website.
1.0 Background
1.1 Shoregate is the sole vehicular access road to and from the harbour. The harbour is a working harbour and is actively used by local fishermen.
1.2 Concerns have been raised with the Traffic Management section regarding access to and egress from Shoregate, Crail.
1.3 There have been occasions, particularly during the busier summer months, whereby access/egress was not possible for vehicles servicing the harbour due to inconsiderate and indiscriminate parking. This has caused operational difficulties for legitimate harbour users.
1.4 The current access difficulties have also led to concerns by local residents, who fear that emergency service vehicles would also experience difficulty in servicing the harbour area.
2.0 Issues and Options
2.1 This location has been assessed and following consultation with local councillors, Community Council, Parking Management and Police Scotland it has been agreed that waiting restrictions need to be introduced to maintain access to the harbour area for all road users at all times.
2.2 It is proposed that the waiting restrictions detailed on Drawing Number TRO/19/053 are promoted.
3.0 Conclusions
3.1 It is considered, in the interests of traffic management and road safety, that waiting restrictions are established at Shoregate, Crail.

2.2 The existing disabled toilet is not compliant, and this would need to be addressed. The plans also include a smaller nursery toilet and one other unisex standard toilet to meet the Care Inspectorate requirement for separate toilets for adults and children. Improvements to the kitchen are also required.
3.0 Project Finance
3.1 The total cost of the project is £128,085.

2.0 Project Proposal
2.1 Kingsbarns is a small village in the East Neuk of Fife. Parents, children and the Community Council approached Alan Bisset in early 2019 to design a new playpark for the village. The design was revised after local consultation and the final version is attached (Appendix 1).
2.2 Kingsbarns has approximately 50 children in the village with a primary school roll of 21. Although the numbers are small the Community Council point out that the playpark is the only public play space in the village and there are simply no other places for the children to play safely.
2.3 The Community Council states that the project has been a co-operative venture between statutory authorities and the local community and that the process to date has resulted in cross-generational working to meet the community’s objectives. The re-designed playpark will also include picnic tables and seating to encourage social interaction.
3.0 Project Finance
3.1 The cost of the playpark will be £62,500 which Kingsbarns Community Council is seeking to raise through funding applications and local fundraising.
3.2 Kingsbarns Community Council has raised £3,125 through local fundraising and a £1,000 donation from the Community Council. An application to Fife Environmental Trust has reached the final stages and a decision will be made in late November. Kingsbarns Golf Club has made a £6,500 donation.
Pending applications are as follows:
FET - £46,875 (decision November 2019) LCPB - £6,000 (this application) Royal & Ancient Golf Club Ogilvie Homes Cambo Estate
3.3 An application to Awards for All was unsuccessful.
189-19 24
4.0 Conclusion
4.1 This application addresses priorities in the Plan for Fife and will support the following key themes:
Community Led Services Improve community involvement in local community planning and land use planning. Invest in community capacity to get involved and develop confidence.
Opportunities for All Improve early years development and health of our children by providing them with a safe and stimulating environment.
Thriving Places Provide safe, well-designed and maintained play spaces that promote wellbeing.
4.2 There is funding available in the East Neuk Local Community Planning Budget should members wish to support this application.

4th December 2019 Agenda Item No. 11
Parks, Streets & Open Spaces Annual Review
Report by: Ken Gourlay, Head of Assets, Transportation & Environment
Wards Affected: Wards 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20
Purpose The purpose of this report is to inform Committee of the work done in the North East Fife Area over the last 12 months and to update Committee on progress of the programme of change being embarked upon by Parks, Streets and Open Spaces to modernise and improve service delivery in the North East Fife Area.
Recommendation(s) It is recommended that the Committee note the work done over the last 12 months and recognise the significant programme of change that will improve the provision of grounds maintenance and street cleansing in the North East Fife Area.
Resource Implications There are no additional resource implications arising from this report.
Legal & Risk Implications The Environmental Protection Act 1990 imposes a duty on Fife Council to keep public roads and relevant land clear of litter and refuse so far as is practicable.
There are no new legal & risk implications arising from this report.
Impact Assessment An EqIA is not required because the report does not propose a change or revision to existing policies and practices.
Consultation No consultations are required in connection with this report.
27 1.0 2018/19 Performance
1.1 Maintaining streets and public open space to a reasonable standard has been a significant challenge for the service over the last 12 months. The unusual summer growing conditions have exposed the impact of frontline staff reductions in recent years and this was most visible with the weeds in streets and general standard of grass cutting.
1.2 The permanent staff resource of 70 operatives undertook all the usual core activities in towns, rural roads and parks, including the servicing of 1,840 litter bins on a daily/weekly basis.
1.3 Seasonal workers were brought in over the summer months to support all core activities.
1.4 Beautiful Fife campaigns were again supported in Anstruther & Cellardyke, Auchtermuchty, Ceres, Colinsburgh, Cupar, Dunshalt, Elie & Earlsferry, Gauldry, Kilconquhar, Leuchars, New Gilston, Pitlessie, St Andrews, Strathkinness and Tayport, with Haugh Park winning a Green Flag Award from Keep Scotland Beautiful.
2.0 North East Fife Area Priorities
2.1 Grounds maintenance and street cleansing managers will be increasing engagement with Area Committee and Community Group representatives to establish an annual plan of local priorities.
2.2 The plan will recognise what communities really want in terms of grounds maintenance activities and will also identify areas where less attendance can free up the resources necessary to deliver on local priorities.
2.3 Effective engagement and sharing of asset management information will be key to this process and provide the data for communities to make informed decisions on.
2.4 Community participation will also support the development of grassland management and new woodland initiatives in localities to support the Climate Change agenda, again freeing up labour for priority works.
2.5 Finalise a lease agreement with the ‘Friends of Craigtoun’ including an agreed Grounds Maintenance schedule
2.6 Through participation within the Area Leadership Team, increase collaboration with partners on local priorities identified within the Community Plan
28 3.0 Change Programme
3.1 The Grounds Maintenance and Street Cleansing Services are services in transition, the introduction of electronic asset management, new service level agreements, a new organisational structure and smarter working practices will improve delivery and better equip the service to meet future savings challenges. These main projects form part of a much larger change programme designed to transform the service and make the most effective and efficient use of resources.
Back Office System – YOTTA Alloy
3.2 A new electronic asset management system (Alloy) has been procured and will go live in a few months. The system will map and quantify all Council land, record service level agreement commitments and identify the resources necessary to fulfil those obligations. The system will measure performance, generate works schedules, calculate charges and bill client services.
Service Level Agreements
3.3 New robust and comprehensive Service Level Agreements are being introduced for every client. These contracts will identify the client’s land assets, work specifications, charges and performance monitoring regime. Client requirements, quality standards and finance will all be transparent, further enabling full cost recovery for additional reactive works commissioned out with Service Level Agreement parameters.
Restructure
3.4 A forthcoming Managing Change project will propose that the street cleansing function is merged with domestic waste collection to form a new service. This will leave a new dedicated grounds maintenance service.
3.5 The management structure will become leaner and greater accountability and clarity will be introduced through new job profiles.
3.6 Asset management information will allow the right-sizing of area teams, as accurate data analysis aligns resources with demand.
Smarter Working Practices
3.7 The introduction of standardised working will ensure that best practice operations are replicated across Fife. This will ensure that labour and plant assets are fully utilised, and a consistent quality of service delivery is maintained.
3.8 The formation of dedicated teams will also see productivity and quality improve as operations get slicker and staff more skilful in their field of activity.
29 4.0 Conclusions
4.1 2018/19 has been a difficult year for both service functions and the impact of staff cuts and the absence of critical business infrastructure has been evident in all areas of Fife.
4.2 The change projects will transform the service, increase productivity and provide information that will enable further business decisions to support performance improvement going forward.
4.3 The change programme may take up to 18 months to deliver fully, however individual projects will be completed on a staggered basis. It is anticipated that there will be enough change in the next 6 months to see a recovery in service provision over summer 2020.
4.4 Key to meeting future financial challenges, quality standards, local priorities and environmental aspirations will be effective community engagement. If local representation can understand the scale of the task ahead then new ways of working can be explored and a partnership approach adopted.
4.5 Transforming the business will go some way to maintaining service delivery but it won’t be enough to meet future savings targets alone. New delivery models based on community collaborations in areas of Fife will be necessary.

31 1.0 Background 1.1 The purpose of this report is to update members on developments within Fife Council’s Criminal Justice Social Work Service in relation to the Community Payback Unpaid Work Scheme. Continuous improvement in the delivery of the Unpaid Work Scheme will assist the Council to meet its key objective of being a top performing Council.
2.0 Reducing Re-offending Partnership 2.1 The Scottish Government and partners have been working together to look at alternative models and ways of working since 2012 to reduce re-offending; reduce the use of custody; and secure better outcomes for communities. The Fife and Forth Valley Community Justice Authority, which previously had oversight of the four local authorities delivering Criminal Justice interventions in its area, was dis-established in April 2017 and a ‘New Model for Community Justice’ the Fife Reducing Offending and Re-offending Partnership Group’ came into effect. This model places planning at a more local level where people who know their area best can make decisions. A legal duty is now placed upon a number of statutory Community Justice Partners to engage in this planning process to ensure a joint approach that is both outcomes- focused and evidence-based. Further information on Fife’s Reducing Offending and Re-Offending Plan can be found on Twitter @RORPGFife.
3.0 Funding 3.1 The Unpaid Work Team is funded through the Criminal Justice budget. This consists of around £830,000 of which the largest percentage is accounted for under human resource costs. Other areas which the budget covers include vehicle hire, rental of facilities, equipment purchase and maintenance.
3.2 Whilst the Unpaid Work Team will provide the tools, transportation and manpower for specific projects, it is the responsibility of the recipients to provide the necessary materials for use.
4.0 Staffing 4.1 The Community Payback Unpaid Work Team comprises of a Team Manager, a Lead Officer, a Social Work Assistant, three Project Officers and fifteen full time Work Supervisors. Recruitment has taken place recently to the supervisor’s role and this will strengthen our capacity to deliver Unpaid Work going forward.
5.0 Legislation 5.1. This legislation requires Unpaid Work Orders to be completed within a specific timeframe as outlined below: - Level One Order - 20 to a maximum of 100 hours can be imposed and should be completed within a 3-month timescale unless otherwise specified by the Sentencer. Level Two Order - 101 to a maximum of 300 hours can be imposed and should be completed within a 6 month timescale unless otherwise specified by the Sentencer.
32 5.2 Immediacy/Visibility One of the key elements of the legislation is to ensure that offenders begin work on community payback as soon as possible after sentence. To assist in this, Criminal Justice Service Social Work staff carry out post-sentence interview immediately after the person has appeared at Court. This ensures that unpaid work participants commence the unpaid work requirement of their order within five working days of their appearance at Court. 5.3 Fife Council’s Criminal Justice Social Work Service has a duty to submit an annual report on the operation of Unpaid Work in Fife to the Scottish Government as required by legislation. Information will include up-to-date figures on the number of Orders imposed and successfully completed Unpaid Work Orders, types of projects undertaken and feedback from participants and recipients of Unpaid Work across Fife. 6.0 Service Delivery 6.1 The Community Payback Unpaid Work Scheme operates Sunday through to Thursday and offers evening shifts four times per week. Sunday working is also available for those participants in employment or with particular care commitments. 6.2 The scheme has three workshops located in Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes and also operates fourteen vehicles. 6.3 Visibility of the projects plays an important part in raising the awareness of the positive contribution Unpaid Work can play in the local community and, throughout the year, there have been a number of positive news articles in the local press. At the conclusion of each project, a plaque is left indicating the Unpaid Work Scheme has carried out the work. This can have a positive impact on those who have participated in the work as well as the recipients of the service. 6.4 In Fife the Community Payback Unpaid Work Team undertake a wide range of projects from painting, litter picking, supporting foodbanks, assisting vulnerable adults and parents of children in the community by completing tasks such as decorating, gardening and removals. 6.5 The scheme currently has forty-five personal placements throughout Fife and is actively working on establishing working relationships to create more personal placements across Fife. Eleven of these are located within the North East Fife area with on-going work being undertaken to continue to expand this number. The current placements include Age Concern, Barnardo’s Shop and Castle Furniture in Cupar and Barnardo’s Shop, Salvation Army Shop and Sue Ryder Shop in St Andrews. 6.6 Last year we made a commitment that our Lead Officer, Project Officer and Work Supervisors, would undertake a Training for Trainers Course which has now been completed. This will ensure staff are able to instruct and guide participants on the safe and effective use of relevant equipment. This will ensure the skill set of unpaid work participants is increased and will promote confidence and skills that can be utilised in the future when seeking employment. Additional training has been undertaken this year to further develop the skills of our workforce around the areas of Trauma and Mental Health in order to increase awareness of the issues that some of our service users will have faced in order to better recognise these and provide feedback and support. Naloxone Training has been delivered: if needed Naloxone will reverse the effects of opioid overdose. The team have also had CALMS training (Crisis, Aggression, Limitation and Management) which is an approach to aggression management.
33 6.7 Currently our Project Officers are undertaking NEBOSH training (The National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health) designed to meet the health, safety, environmental and risk management needs of all places of work in both the private and public sectors. In 2019 Community Justice Scotland will provide a Learning Pathway for our Unpaid Work Supervisors which will lead to an SVQ in Community Justice. 6.8 The Unpaid Work Team continues to work in close partnership with the Fife Coastal and Countryside Trust to support the management and upkeep of areas managed by the trust. This continued partnership has led to a contribution being made by the Trust to fund the Training for Trainers course. 6.9 Local pick up points are now in place in Cupar, Buckhaven, Dunfermline and Kirkcaldy which are designed to assist individuals attend and complete their hours of Unpaid Work. 6.10 An Unpaid Work requirement also provides the opportunity within certain prescribed limits for a participant to undertake other activities designed to address identified deficits in the person’s lifestyle that may improve a variety of areas in their life. Other activity must not exceed thirty percent of the specified number of hours in the requirement, or thirty hours, whichever is the lower. Such areas include specific training, which addresses issues of literacy, numeracy and/or problem solving. There may also be a need to address anger management issues, address alcohol and or drug related problems and these areas are identified and promoted by our Criminal Justice Assistants who supervise those on the order. Attendance at the Criminal Justice Services Road Traffic Offenders Programme has also been undertaken. 6.11 In response to the needs of women who offend, the Criminal Justice Social Work Service has a woman only work squad. The WINGS Project (Women, Inspiring, Nurturing, Goals and Safe) is a service that is tailored to provide a range of services in one place. Attendance by women to the Women, Inspiring, Nuturing, Goals project is credited as part of the other activity project and runs four days a week in Dunfermline, Glenrothes, Methil, Cupar and Kirkcaldy. 6.12 The Community Payback Unpaid Work Team also strives to work in close partnership with other Social Work teams such as Children & Families and Adults teams. Examples of this include providing responsive support for individuals or families to move home at short notice for safety purposes and providing support to vulnerable individuals within the community to maintain their properties to a good standard.
7.0 Recipients Feedback
7.1 Following completion of a Project, a recipient’s questionnaire is sent to recipients to gain feedback on the service they received.

The Scottish Average in 2016/17 for Level 2 Orders was 258 days. The figures above indicate that there has been a decrease in the speed at which individuals have completed their order in 2018/2019. There is no absolute clarity as to what has contributed to this, but two factors may play a role in the higher than expected days taken to complete hours. The levels of staff sickness in this part of the service go some way to contributing to a swifter conclusion to orders which decreases availability on squads for individuals, additionally the number of occasions that individuals are due to attend, then fail to do so also plays a role in the speed that orders are concluded.
9.0 Unpaid Work in Fife – Demand 9.1 The total number of Community Payback Orders with an Unpaid Work requirement imposed in Fife over the period of 31st March 2018 to 1st April 2019 is 1037 (894 in the previous year). In demographic terms, males represent the largest cohort of participants with 894 Orders imposed on men and 143 women.
9.2 The number of hours of completed by unpaid work participants in Fife over the period covering 31st March 2018 to 1st April 2019 was 93690. Using the Living Wage of £8.21 per hours as a guide, this equates to £769,690 of financial benefit to Fife communities and Unpaid Work Recipients.
9.3 The total number of Community Payback Unpaid Work Requirements successfully completed in Fife over the period of 31st March 2018 to 1st April 2019 was 497 males and 85 females.
10.0 Work Undertaken in Wards
10.1 The work undertaken by the Community Payback Scheme and its participants benefit local schools; charities; and community organisations. The range of work can include:
• ground clearance • recycling projects • building maintenance and landscaping • Improvements to park and community facilities • General gardening projects • Painting and decorating in community centres and individual homes
11.0 Projects Undertaken in the Committee Area
11.1 A description of some of the work undertaken in the North East Fife Area over the period 31st March 2018 to 1st April 2019 is noted in Appendix 1 of this report.

12.0 Conclusion
12.1 Community Payback has assisted a large variety of projects over the last year from individual householders to schools and nurseries and voluntary organisations throughout Fife. It plays a significant and positive role in local communities and repairs some of the harm caused by those who have committed offences. In addition to the benefits to local communities, the use of the other activity has been utilised to ensure that we are meeting any identified needs of service users with a view to supporting them to integrate within their local communities. The number of Orders has increased in the last year by 143. The Unpaid Work in the Community Team would welcome the opportunity to continuously develop links with other Fife Council directorates in the coming year to improve the range of activities it can offer to those on the order as well as fill gaps where the council is unable to provide a service due to budgetary constraints.

COMMUNITY PAYBACK – UNPAID WORK SCHEME
1.0 INTRODUCTION Community Payback Orders – Unpaid work are made by the Court as a direct alternative to custody and are managed and supervised by Criminal Justice Social Work Services., Orders vary from 40 to 300 hours. The Criminal Justice Service reports on any issues or problems relating to the management of Orders directly to the Courts.
2.0 MANAGEMENT The Community Payback Unpaid Work Scheme is delivered by four of the nine operational teams within Criminal Justice. The Service is headed up by a Service Manager responsible to the Senior Manager (Children and Families and Criminal Justice). Each of the operational teams is managed by a Team Manager. The teams are responsible for the assessment, supervision and management of the Community Payback Order and the participant to whom it relates. This role includes assessing an individual’s suitability for the Order using risk assessment tools and managing the participant’s compliance with the Order; and providing feedback to the Court on compliance and performance.
3.0 PROJECTS The Unpaid Work Team is responsible for the provision of the unpaid work projects and the direct supervision of participants. Placements are provided 5 days per week. The Team is led by Lead Officer (Archie Melville) responsible for the supervision and management of the Project Officers and the Unpaid Work Supervisor staff group. The Lead Officer is also responsible for the planning, management, health and safety. The aim of Community Payback is to provide opportunities for participants to make reparation to the local community, for example local schools, charities and community organisations. A further objective of unpaid work in the community is to help offenders to learn and acquire new work and life skills. To improve their employability prospects, help them break the cycle of reoffending and to move away from crime.
The conditions and criteria that govern Community Payback Unpaid Work are:
• Individuals can not physically or mentally do the work themselves. • Do not have monies to pay for the requested work or project • They have no family friends or neighbours, regardless of their commitments and where they live that cannot do the work for them. • Work only considered for not-for-profit organisations. • Not a replacement for paid labour (i.e. the Scheme must not replace a Fife Council or any other paid work force); and, • In addition, all materials must be purchased and supplied by the beneficiary or recipients.

4 December 2019 Agenda Item No. 13
Tayport Community Fund
Report by: Paul Vaughan, Head of Communities and Neighbourhoods
Wards Affected: 17 – Tay Bridgehead
Purpose The purpose of this report is to provide a progress report on the operation of the former Tayport War Memorial Fund.
Recommendation(s) Members are asked to note progress in delivering the Tayport Community Fund and how it is benefitting groups in Tayport.
Resource Implications At year end 2018/19 the Tayport Community Fund had a balance of £198,706.
Legal & Risk Implications There are no legal or risk implications based on this report.
Impact Assessment An EqIA is not required because the report does not propose a change or revision to existing policies and practices.
Consultation The Tayport Branch of the Royal British Legion has been consulted on the content of this report.
49 1.0 Background
1.1 In October 2017 Committee agreed to broaden the purposes for which the Tayport Memorial Fund could be spent and agreed to a process to involve the Tayport Royal British Legion in decision making on spend.
1.2 Tayport War Memorial Fund was an anomaly in terms of Settlement Trusts. It was not assimilated into the Tayport Settlement Trust because its purpose was so specific, namely, the maintenance of the War Memorial at Tayport. However, with a fund balance of £235,247 at year end 2015/16 and annual expenditure of an average £5K, officers and members in discussion with representatives of the Royal British Legion, considered whether the entire fund was needed for its original purpose or whether it could be utilised for wider community benefit.
1.3 Given the size of the Fund and the need to ensure it is put to best use for the community, the following recommendations were agreed:
1) that the sum of £30,000 be set aside from revenue balances in the Fund for future maintenance of Tayport War Memorial; 2) that the remaining balance be spent on projects which benefit the community of Tayport; 3) that priority be given to projects for community benefit proposed by the Tayport Branch of the Royal British Legion; 4) that the Royal British Legion be consulted on all proposed spend on community projects not proposed by them, and that they be given the right to veto any proposed spend. 5) that spend under £5,000 be delegated to the Community Manager for the North East Fife Area, in consultation with the Legion and the local members; and 6) that officers report back on progress in two years’ time.
It was further agreed to rename the fund as the Tayport Community Fund.
2.0 Operation of the Tayport Community Fund
2.1 In consultation with the Tayport Royal British Legion an application form was developed for use by community groups. It was proposed by the Royal British Legion that the maximum award which could be applied for would be £5,000 with only 1 application allowed within a 3-year period.
2.2 As a result of operating the fund over the past 2 years the Royal British Legion requested several changes to make the criteria more flexible, namely, with prior discussion and approval from the Royal British Legion, awards of up to £10,000 will be considered as will a second application within a 3-year period.
2.3 The Royal British Legion has found it extremely helpful in their decision making to invite applicants to make a presentation to their monthly meetings when further information is required to inform decision making. This has helped to connect the Royal British Legion with activity in the community and strengthened links with community organisations.
50 3.0 Projects Funded 2017-2019

4 December 2019 Agenda Item No. 14
Settlement Trust - Annual Update on Expenditure and Funds Held – 2018/19 Report by: Paul Vaughan, Head of Communities and Neighbourhoods Wards Affected: All
Purpose
This report gives elected members a position statement on the expenditure relating to the Settlement Trusts in their area. The report also provides a Fife wide statement of funds held in both capital and revenue accounts as at April 2019.
Recommendation(s)
Members are asked to - • Note the expenditure statement for the financial year 2018/19 found in Appendix 1. • Note the funds available at the year-end relating to amounts held as interest, in Revenue accounts and as Capital. • Note and comment on the detail of the projects supported by the disbursement of these funds found in section 2.0. (where relevant.) • Note the acceptable uses for this funding in Appendix 2 of this report.
Resource Implications
Members will note the disbursement from the Settlement Trust funds, in this area amounted to a total of £15,195 from a potential £20,134. Members will find details of the beneficiaries of this funding in section 2.0 of this report.
Legal & Risk Implications
This report raises no legal or risk implications. It would however be useful to advise that a recent Audit Scotland overview of the levels of Settlement Trust dispersals within Fife, has raised concerns that we are still showing a relatively low level of take-up from both groups and individuals in terms of applications. Community Managers have agreed to ensure that a more pro-active approach will be taken to promote the opportunity for these funds to be used locally. In North East Fife elected members agreed in November 2018 that Settlement Trusts would be proactively marketed to individuals who met the ‘relief of poverty’ criteria through the NEF Anti- Poverty Partnership. 52 Impact Assessment
An Equality Impact Assessment (EqIA) is not required, as the report does not propose a change or revision to existing policies and practices. An EqIA was submitted for the original proposal to change the process of disbursement for Settlement Trusts, and there were no negative impacts noted. This document is on file and available to members on request.
Consultation
There was no specific consultation process aligned to this report. Access to the grant application form is available on Fife Direct and is open to all who feel their request would meet the criteria. The link to the grants page is noted below, while the relevant tab to use via this link is entitled ‘Fife Grants’. http://www.fifedirect.org.uk/topics/index.cfm?fuseaction=subject.display&subjectid=3 1C9D369-AEBB-46ED-BABE-5AE516541980&themeid=2B892409-722D-4F61- B1CC-7DE81CC06A90
Local areas will ensure that the availability of these funds is advertised as widely as possible with local groups and service providers. It should be noted that some of the trusts noted in this report do not produce significant levels of income, accordingly their practical use is somewhat limited. However, where they can be used in conjunction with local community planning budget, or as a stand-alone payment to an individual in need, they will be. 1.0 Background and Context
1.1 During 2016 all Area Committees were presented with an update report in terms of the first year of operation of the Settlement Trusts, this covered the period after the Trusts were reorganised and devolved to the seven areas for administration.
1.2 Members were informed that there would be advantages to Fife Council through the reorganisation of the 183 individual trusts administered by the authority, into 30 distinct Settlement Trusts. It was highlighted that the reduction to 30 Settlement Trusts would significantly reduce the reporting requirements to the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR), as the body that oversees the dispersal of charitable funds.
1.3 The reorganisation into Settlement Trusts has had the effect of releasing funds for charitable purposes, which would otherwise potentially be unused. The acceptable uses for Settlement Trusts are attached to this report as Appendix 2 and are those utilised by OSCR to clarify the legal definition for charitable activities. 2.0 Projects Supported in 2018/19
2.1. There are 16 Settlement Trusts across North East Fife, 9 of which were active in 2018/19 dispersing grant funds of £15,195. The 7 Settlement Trusts receiving no applications have very small levels of income, a total of £1,271 across the 7 Settlement Trusts.
53
2.2 Grant funding in 2018/19 was as follows:
Settlement 2018/19 2018/19 Balance 2018/19 Projects/Grants Income Expenditure to alleviate Poverty
Anstruther £5,992 £5,000 £992 East Neuk Foodbank £2,500 & Town Hall Flooring £2,000 Cellardyke Waid Concert £450 Individual Grant £50
Crail £2,611 £1,800 £811 Benches at Castle Walk £1,800
Cupar £1,905 £940 £965 Firework Display £350 Individual Grants £590
Kingskettle £54 £49 £5 Individual Grant £49
Newburgh £2,632 £2,425 £207 Youth Work Social Media Project £500 TIIC Easter Family Activities £625 TIIC Resources to start up Bagpipe Lessons £800 Individual Grants £500
Pittenweem £490 £200 £290 Individual Grants £200
St. Andrews £3,278 £2,690 £588 Home Start – First Aid Training for Volunteers £800 Lawhead – All-weather suits For nursery pupils £990 Individual Grants £900
St. Monans £1,500 £1,365 £135 Set-up costs for a Baby & Toddler Group £1,015 Individual Grants £350
Tayport £259 £226 £33 Individual Grants £226 £18,721 £14,695 £4,026
2.3 Those Settlement Trusts where no applications were received in 2018/19 were:
Settlement 2018/19 Income
Auchtermuchty £327 Collessie £59 Elie £396 Falkland £85 Freuchie £146 Kilconquhar £167 Ladybank £233 £1,413
54 3.0 Conclusions
3.1 By devolving, the administration of the Settlement Trust funds to the areas we have freed up a resource that can be used alongside other area held funding for the direct benefit of local people. 3.2 The introduction of Settlement Trusts administered locally has benefitted the current area approaches in relation to mitigating the negative impacts of Welfare Reform, and the on-going work around poverty and equality issues.

Non-Settlement Trusts – Annual Update on Expenditure and Funds Held – 2018/19
Report by: Paul Vaughan, Head of Communities and Neighbourhoods
Wards Affected: All
Purpose This report gives elected members a position statement on the expenditure relating to the Non-Settlement Trusts covering North East Fife. The report also provides a Fife-wide statement on funds as at April 2019. Recommendation(s) Members are asked to: 1) Note the expenditure statement for the financial year 2018/19 contained in Appendix 1. 2) Note the funds available at the year end. 3) Note and comment on the projects supported by the disbursement of these funds found in Appendix 2. Resource Implications Members will note the disbursement from Non-Settlement Trust funds in this area amounted to a total of £47,699.50 in 2018/19.
Legal & Risk Implications
This Non-Settlement report raises no legal or risk implications. It would however be useful to advise that a recent Audit Scotland overview of the levels of Trust dispersals within Fife, has raised concerns that we are still showing a relatively low level of take-up from both groups and individuals in terms of applications. Community Managers have agreed to ensure that a more pro-active approach will be taken to promote the opportunity for these funds to be used locally.

However, where they can be used in conjunction with local community planning budget, or as a stand-alone payment to an individual in need, they will be.
58 1.0 Background & Context
1.1 Settlement Trusts comprise several individual trusts and bequests specific to a defined geography which were brought together in 2014 following consultation with Community Councils and the charities regulator OSCR and/or Lord Advocate.
1.2 Non-Settlement Trusts cover more than one geography or were designated for a specific purpose. A list of Non-Settlement Trusts and a statement of fund balances is contained in Appendix 1.
2.0 Projects Supported in 2018/19
2.1 There are 26 Non-Settlement Trusts across North East Fife, only 3 of which were active in 2018/19 dispersing grants of £47,699.50. Information on projects supported is contained in Appendix 2.
2.2 With the exception of the 3 Trust Funds which awarded grants in 2018/19 all but 2 had available funds of less than £1,000.
2.3 Efforts were made to disperse Graves Dressing funds in 2018/19 and a process was set up whereby Bereavement Services could access funding to support work in cemeteries in North East Fife, but this never gained traction. Further efforts are being made in 2019/20.
2.4 At their meeting on 14 August 2019 North East Fife Area Committee agreed to liquidate the Buist Bequest and to use the closing balance to contribute towards the refurbishment of the Bruce Embankment public toilets in St. Andrews.
2.5 The 3 Galloway Trust Funds have been transferred to Colinsburgh Community Trust following agreement with Democratic Services.
3.0 Conclusion
3.1 Despite efforts to publicise the availability of Non-Settlement Trusts to local groups and service providers the uptake remains low.

62 1.0 Background
1.1 The purpose of this report is to advise members of the progress of the additional Capital Investment received for the Communities Directorate in the 2017-20 budget.
1.2 Investment totalling £6.3m has been allocated between the 7 different geographical boundaries of Fife covering multiple years.
1.3 By area, this equates to £0.200m in 17-18 and a further £0.200m in 18-19 to each area combined with an allocation of £0.500m to each area to Improve Health through Leisure and sport over a 5 year period. This provides a total of £0.900m per area.
2.0 Governance
2.1 On 28th March 2017 the Executive Committee approved revised governance and scrutiny arrangements for the additional capital investment. At that meeting the Committee approved the following: • Area Capital Budgets will be managed through the existing delegated authority for local community planning budgets to Area Committees; • All projects including project business plans and allocations will be approved by each Area Committee; • As the funding is capital in nature, certain criteria is required to be met in terms of the type of project that can be funded. In addition to the guidance around what is capital in nature, projects should meet a recognised priority within the Local Community Plan; • A short project outline template will be developed for each bid and will provide details on funding requested (including match funding), expected outcomes and capital criteria eligibility.
2.2 A bi annual report will be presented to each Area Committee to update members on the progress on all approved projects and the level of funds that are still available for future allocation. This report is the second report to be presented for North East Fife Area Committee and outlines the budget allocations and progress to date.
3.0 Progress to Date
3.1 Following the initial delay described above multiple projects have now been through the various processes and are now underway. Details of which are in appendix 1.
3.2 A total of £0.900m has been approved for North East Fife area to date and Appendix 1 provides details of these.
3.3 £0.000m remains unallocated at this stage for North East Fife area.

66 1.0 Background 1.1 Annual reporting is one of a suite of measures designed to ensure that Fife’s Common Good Funds are managed and reported in a way that reflects best value for the organisation. 1.2 Historically, the Common Good Fund has comprised both capital and revenue balances. The capital balance consists of fixed assets which are heritable property and investments. The revenue balance comprises current assets held in the Council’s accounts on behalf of the relevant fund.
2.0 Common Good Fund - Key Elements 2.1 Revenue Account 2.1.1 Income The cash income received during the financial year is mainly from rents, interest on investments and internal interest. Income from net gain on revaluation is a result of the revaluation of the fund’s investments at the year end. 2.1.2 Expenditure In line with the Council’s agreed policy, the first call on the Common Good Fund is maintenance of Common Good property. Disbursements/donations and other expenses are also funded from the Common Good Fund. The amount spent on property costs and disbursements/donations are detailed within the notes to the accounts for the individual Common Good Funds. The net effect of the income and expenditure on a Common Good account results in a surplus or deficit for the particular year. This amount is then transferred to balances.
3.0 Balance Sheet 3.1 Fixed Assets 3.1.1 Heritable Property Heritable Property comprises land and buildings held on Common Good accounts. In the main this is municipal buildings and recreational land of various kinds. The attached accounts reflect the assets held on the Common Good Balance sheet as at 31st March, 2019. A complete list of all Common Good assets relative to this Area is also attached at Appendix 1(b). 3.1.2 Investments In addition to heritable property, each Common Good Fund also has investments. These investments form part of the funds capital balances. Investments are made using the Council’s standard investment strategy to maximise income to the fund. The heritable property and investments represent the capital balances. 3.2 Current Assets The Advance to Loans Fund comprises monies held in the Council’s bank account which receive internal interest from Fife Council. The advance to loans fund, plus debtors and less creditors, represents the revenue balances. The revenue account and balance sheet form the financial accounts for the Common Good Fund and this is attached as Appendix 1 to this report.
67
4.0 Moveable Property
4.1 Moveable property held as part of the Common Good comprises everything that is not land or buildings, e.g. Council Chains of Office, furniture, ceremonial robes and so on. The Local Services Network and Museums and Libraries can provide a list of this moveable property if required.
5.0 Conclusions
5.1 This report and its appendices are intended to give Members greater information on the relevant Common Good Funds.
