The Grant Offer will include:
- The names of Councillors who are supporting the project
- The amount of grant offered
- A Funding Agreement. (As part of the agreement, the Council reserves the right to promote its support of projects and organisations receiving grants and to use photographs and information about projects or organisations on its website and in other publications).
- To be signed and returned within 2 weeks of the offer date to secure the funding. This outlines the terms and conditions under which the grant is offered by North Devon Council, and accepted by the applicant
- Payment Claim Form
- Grants are usually paid on completion of a project. The Payment Claim form should be completed and returned along with evidence of expenditure, ie an invoice or receipt. Payment will be made by BACS transfer. The Council understands that in some instances groups may have an immediate need for funds therefore up to 80% of the grant may be paid in advance, provided that the applicant supplies proof of need e.g. in the form of a cash-flow forecast. The remaining 20% will be paid when the project has been completed and the final payment claim and invoice received as above. Any grant offers which have not been claimed by the end of the following financial year may be reviewed or withdrawn.
