The purpose of the report is to update Cabinet about the Community Environmental Fund and approve the way forward in accessing these funds.
It is expected that the L2 River Terminal will trigger contributions from the Port of Liverpool to the Community Environmental Fund. L2 is expected to be open for June 2015.
The report will be reporting on the criteria for accessing this funding and how it is intended to be managed. The report will be recommending that Cabinet authorise the Director of Built Environment to develop Expressions of Interest and Applications as required into the Community Environmental Fund. Also that the approval of the completed application be delegated to the Director of Built Environment in conjunction with relevant Cabinet Portfolio holders.
The application process may develop under the Green Print for Growth Framework which the Cabinet approved as policy in August 2012.
