6.1Authorise Response and send for the South Gloucestershire Positive Activities Subsidy Consultation before deadline
Graham Baker, Youth Development & Participation Worker gave the following update:
Background: At the recent BSTC Extraordinary meeting (25/10/17) the BSTC Youth Development & Participation Worker presented members with an outline draft response to the current SGC Positive Activities Subsidy consultation. Following brief discussion, it was carried to agree the principles as the basis for developing a full draft response to SGC consultation and that the full draft response will be considered for discussion and approval at Full Council in November.
Following the above discussion, a further SGC PAS consultation meeting took place on Tuesday 31st October and some useful discussions were held, including discussion with representatives of other Town and Parish Councils.
Another recent development worth noting is the refresh of the Charter between South Gloucestershire Council & Town & Parish Councils (Agenda item 12.1 at BSTC Full Council 15/11/17). The Charter reinforces many of the points BSTC wish to emphasise in our PAS submission, including the Charters highlighted benefits of the adoption of the localism agenda, localism principles and the consequent benefits and outcomes.
The future of PAS funding: earlier this year SGC carried out a needs assessment to inform future commissioning proposals for the distribution and allocation of PAS funds for a likely start from April 2019. SG Council said that it was looking for new ways to deliver positive activities and want to get a better picture of what youth activities are needed and where they should be, as well as how they should be provided within available resources.
Proposed commissioning model: A SGC briefing note (dated 25/09/17) stated that members preferred model is to have one single fund for positive activitiesThe model includes continued provision in the five current Priority Neighbourhoods (P, K,CH,Y&D & SH) and for young people with learning difficulties and/or disabilities. We (SGC) are exploring the model of commissioning 3 to 5 lead providers who can form partnerships to deliver the contract.
However, SGC have also said that Its really important that the Town (& Parish) Councils discuss this and give us some feedback about the realities, difficulties and opportunities of providing youth work and potential partnership working outside their areas. We value the contribution Town & Parish Councils are making.
BSTC response: In recent years Bradley Stoke Town Council has demonstrated a direct commitment to developing youth work and youth provision in the locality. The Town Councils commitment is laid out and reinforced through the Councils Five-Year Plan and through the direct employment of a professionally qualified Youth Worker to lead on both infrastructure and youth work project and programme developments.
Consequently, substantial progress has been achieved in recent years through the combination of BSTC core funding and the successful attraction of external capital and revenue funding, including the receipt of SGC Positive Activity Subsidy (PAS) monies.
The pump priming effect of core funding has helped to attract additional funding and resources and cannot be underestimated. Likewise, core funding by BSTC often eliminates the need for external funding to be top sliced with management costs and therefore enabled external funding to be spent directly on the delivery of youth work programmes or projects. For example, all current PAS funding is spent on sessional delivery and resources.
In addition, the benefits of BSTC directly delivering Youth Work and employing their own professional youth worker and youth work staff team are numerous including:
Actively embracing the localism agenda within our approach to Youth Work.
Actively engaging with the key principles of the Charter between SGC & T&PC within our approach to Youth Work delivery.
Having our own Youth Development & Participation Worker (YD&PW) based within the local community and accessible to young people outside of regular youth work sessions.
Helping local young people to relate more directly to their local Town Council and improve psychological access and ownership.
Helping to enable the voices of young people to be heard on various issues, developments and the shaping of projects and programmes.
The development of significant local infrastructure projects such as the new skatepark and current further development of the associated building. The park is a quality destination facility and associational space and also highlights that our local youth provision and youth work also engages young people from neighbouring areas, including priority neighbourhoods.
Being proactive and flexible within our local youth work, but also having the capacity to be quickly reactive to certain issues and challenges.
Being able to offer support and advice to other BSTC staff on youth matters.
Local youth work being directly accountable to BSTC through regular reports and YD&PW attendance at Council meetings as well as ongoing dialogue.
Continuing to develop our own in-house structure of professional development, support and supervision of youth work staff and volunteers.
Continuing to build and enhance local social capital through networking and liaison with a range of local agencies and members of the local community.
Local youth work directly helping to promote intergenerational work and break down intergenerational barriers.
BSTC therefore recommend the following:
That SGC, as highlighted above, continue to recognise the significant range of benefits of BSTCs direct provision of youth work activities, programmes and projects within the local community.
That BSTC believe that our approach to youth work effectively embraces the localism agenda and key principles within the refreshed Charter between SGC & Town & Parish Councils.
That BSTC request that SGC adjust the current proposed PAS commissioning model and include the option to be able to directly allocate Positive Activities Subsidy funds to Town & Parish Councils where applicable.
That BSTC suggest that SGC consider Youth Work training courses at Level 2 and Level 3 could be offered as a discrete commissioning lot. The training lot would therefore remove the need to cost Level 2 & Level 3 training within individual lot submissions. It would also facilitate accessible training to organisations or Parishes that provide youth work activities, but are not in receipt of PAS funding. This could help with a shared aspiration (discussed at recent PAS consultation meeting) to re-establish appropriate qualification levels.
That BSTC believe that Town & Parish Councils can be more understanding, flexible and responsive to local needs by connecting youth work with local decision-making processes and the wider community. This approach helps enhance local youth democracy and promotes greater ownership.
That BSTC has had positive discussions with other Parish Councils and would welcome the opportunity to work with SGC to further explore potential collaboration to mutually enhance youth provision (e.g. staff support and development, cover staff, etc). This could also involve SGC encouraging Parish Councils to make budgetary provision for youth work.
Following discussion, Councillor Paul Hardwick proposed that the above points are used as the basis for the BSTC final response to the SGC Positive Activity Subsidy consultation, seconded by Councillor Andy Ward, carried unanimously.
6.2Clarify & Ratify Recruitment of Additional Youth Work Staff
Graham Baker, Youth Development & Participation Worker gave the following update:
Background. This item requires Full Council approval to proceed to the recruitment stage for additional part time Youth Work staff (see Appendix A).
The Youth Work budget was recently confirmed, after discussion and agreement at Strategic Planning and then Full Council. At September Full Council it was agreed that the current youth budgets remain as they are and revisited at Strategic Planning in September 2018. However, although the recruitment of staff was implied within the approval and detail of the budget, it was not explicit.
This item was then brought to and discussed at Octobers Leisure, Youth & Amenities Committee, however, although the committee agreed the proposed action, it was agreed to formally confirm at next appropriate Council meeting, hence this item.
Following discussion, Councillor Paul Hardwick proposed agreeing the recruitment of additional youth work staff, seconded by Councillor Brian Hopkinson, carried unanimously.
7Matters arising from the Minutes
7.1Brook Way Activity Centre Site grounds redevelopment
The amended plan circulated to councillors. The Town Clerk informed the meeting there are a couple of amendments to be made to the new plan with an additional 6 parking spaces added to the end of the proposed car parking area and a small fence/kerb to differentiate the sloping area.
Following discussion, Councillor Tom Aditya proposed acceptance of the plan with amendments, seconded by Councillor Tony Griffiths, carried unanimously.

11Financial Matters
11.12017/18 Lease Reviews
It is that time of year again when the lease charges for the next financial year 2018/19 are reviewed and, in line with the Bowls, Cricket and Scouts leases, the next years annual charge increase is based upon the lower of the August and September CPI annual percentage change figures as issued by The Office of National Statistics.
The 2017 CPI figures released are:
August 2017 = 2.9%
September 2017 = 3%
Based upon these figures, the August CPI (2.9%) will be applied to each lease for 2018/19 as follows: The organisations have been advised of these uplifts.
Group2017/18 Lease ChargeIncrease2018/19 Lease charge
The Bowls Club5,333155 p/a5,488
The Cricket Club4,956144 p/a5,100
The Scouts 5,397157 p/a5,554
Councillors Daniel Hardwick and Paul Hardwick declared an interest and left the meeting
11.1.1Bradley Stoke Cricket Club
Following discussion, Councillor Tom Aditya proposed Bradley Stoke Cricket Club lease be increased by 144 p/a for 2018/19, seconded by Councillor Keith Cranney, carried unanimously.
Councillors Daniel Hardwick and Paul Hardwick rejoined the meeting
11.1.2Bradley Stoke Bowls Club
Following discussion, Councillor Keith Cranney proposed Bradley Stoke Bowls Club lease be increased by 155 p/a for 2018/19, seconded by Councillor Franklin Owusu-Antwi, carried unanimously.
11.1.3Bradley Stoke Scout Group
Following discussion, Councillor Keith Cranney proposed Bradley Stoke Scout Group lease be increased by 157 p/a for 2018/19, seconded by Councillor Marion Ward, carried unanimously.
Councillor Andy Ward proposed that Councillor Tom Aditya chair the next item, seconded by Councillor Franklin Owusu-Antwi, carried unanimously. Councillor Tom Aditya assumed the chair.
Councillors Brian Hopkinson, Andy Ward and Marion Ward declared an interest and left the meeting.
11.1.4Bradley Stoke Radio
The Radio lease does not have a built-in mechanism for future increases and the group have therefore lodged a detailed explanation behind their request for a 200 increase for 2018/19 as below.
Its not been an easy year for the station financially as we lost grant support from Ofcom in November last year and have not been successful in renewing the grant in subsequent rounds of Ofcom funding panel meetings, we have however managed to improve our income from outside events that we have attended throughout the year and those organisations that have been in a position to do so have made donations towards the stations running costs and expenses.
We have attended many events in and around the town once again this year, supporting many local groups and organisations and we continue to do so.
The support from the Town Council is very much appreciated and we wouldnt be able to continue operating without this, we do however recognise that the council has been incredibly supportive of the station by keeping our premises lease at an affordable level which has been frozen at 750 for the last two years and as such feel that its only fair to offer an increase in the amount we pay.
We recognise that we will never be a profitable organisation generating a cash surplus, we simply seek to cover our operating costs and any surplus is invested in renewing equipment, we do feel however that we could manage to cover a modest increase in the region of 200 per annum if that would be acceptable to council.
Many thanks once again for the invaluable support that the council has shown Bradley Stoke Radio, it has enabled us to continue providing our community service, where many other community stations have simply closed down due to the high operating costs associated with community broadcasting.
This will increase the current lease from 750 to 950 for 2018/19
Note:
History of BS Radio Lease Charges
The Radio commenced their lease on 19/12/11 and received free usage until 31/3/12.
2012/13 = 300 p/a was agreed as a concessionary start up lease period.
2013/14 = 500 p/a was agreed pending the securing of an FM licence which was later obtained.
2014/15 = 700 p/a was agreed as it was expected to take another year to build advertising revenue (which must be cost matched by external grant funding).
2015/16 = 750 p/a was agreed as a nominal increase as previous funding streams had closed.
2016/17 = 750 p/a was agreed due to funding difficulties.
2017/18 = 750 p/a Council chose to freeze the lease whilst the Radio offered 950 p/a
In addition to the lease fees, The radio commenced paying for their electricity usage as from 1st April 2013.
Following discussion, Councillor Franklin Owusu-Antwi proposed Bradley Stoke Radio be frozen at 750 p/a for 2018/19, seconded by Councillor Ben Randles, carried unanimously.
Councillors Brian Hopkinson, Andy Ward and Marion Ward rejoined the meeting and Councillor Andy Ward resumed in the chair
11.2Firework Display 2017 Report & Budget for 2018
This years Firework Display was again a great success, the weather remained Firework friendly once again. The numbers attending were quite significantly up on last year and this was reflected in the amazing charity bucket collection total as detailed below. Feedback from those members of the public attending the event was overwhelmingly positive.
Of course, the event could not run without the outstanding support from the volunteer marshal and bucket collectors from a range of local groups (including Little Stoke Social Club, Bradley Stoke in Bloom/Three Brooks Nature Conservation Group, Frampton Cotterell Air Cadets and one of the two Mayors Charity groups (Freewheelers Emergency Voluntary Service) as well as BSTC councillors and staff and for these groups ongoing support, a massive thank you.
The bucket collection has now been counted and the final total was an amazing increase on last years total at 3,629.54 This amount does not include donations from the food vans which are as follows:
Donut van donation = 120.00
Burger Van donation = 370.00
GRAND TOTAL TO MAYORS CHARITY =4,119.54
Bradley Stoke Rotary Club ran the BBQ (which is a major fundraiser for their Charity each year and although we don't have a figure for this year as yet, they remained busy to the very end, so it is hoped they raised a significant sum again.

11.32018/19 1st Budget Draft & Forward Plan
Rachel Pullen, RFO informed the meeting that, in readiness for the 1st 2018/19 Budget Draft, the following budget considerations were presented at the October Finance meeting (see minutes attached):

The 1st 2018/19 budget draft has been constructed taking these items into account which have been incorporated, as usual, within the 5 year forward plan to show the longer term impact of any budget decisions and changes.
All budget changes for 2017/18 and the major budget changes for 2018/19 are detailed below and better reflect the current actual expenditure patterns and more recent staffing and payroll changes:

It should be noted the above budget changes and the Forward Plan are currently based upon an indicative 2018/19 Tax Base as published by South Gloucestershire Council in December 2016. This determines the total precept income and finalised figures will probably not be available until January 2018 when the BSTC 3rd & final budget is produced. Any major changes in these figures will have a huge impact upon the budget draft.
In addition, some reserves have been utilised within this 1st draft to help fund projects highlighted by Strategic Planning, although estimated figures have been applied pending formal costings to be provided at a later date.
In line with previous years and due to strict budget monitoring, an additional 2017/18 year-end surplus in excess of the currently predicted 62K is expected. Any additional surplus will initially be added to reserves to help fund the forward budget into the 6th year and beyond. The projected figures suggest a year-end surplus for 2021/22 of 33.4K and 55K for the Future Budget Reserve (N/C 3089), both of which can then be carried forward into the 6th year budget. This currently puts council in a very strong financial position moving forwards.
Please be aware, this is a long-term projection based upon estimated figures and the position will no doubt change in the interim and may be further influenced by possible inflationary pressures which are expected, especially following the recent Bank of England base rate increase.
With regards the 2017/18 precept, the current position indicates a freezing of the current level although this will be dependent upon the finalised 2017/18 Tax Base figures as previously advised.
Following discussion, Councillor Franklin Owusu-Antwi proposed acceptance of the 1st Budget Draft & Forward Plan as detailed above, seconded by Councillor Daniel Hardwick, carried unanimously. A vote of thanks was given to Rachel Pullen, RFO for her sterling work in the production of this draft.
Rachel Pullen, RFO informed the meeting that, due to money laundering regulations, some of the authorised investments that are due over the next month will have to be made by cheque rather than by bank transfer and the required cheques will be signed by the Chair of Council and the Town Clerk and will then be advised at the next available meeting.
11.4Bills & Direct Debits for payment
The following Bills and Direct Debits were approved for payment (and include VAT where appropriate) by Councillor Tom Aditya, seconded by Councillor Andy Ward and carried unanimously.

APPENDIX A
Review of Youth Budgets
Strategic Planning Meeting: Monday 11th September 2017
Review of Youth budgets: background information to inform discussion
Since 2013 BSTC has been very successful in attracting a range of external funding for children and young people focussed community projects.
External fundraising has included approximately 200,000 of capital monies and approximately 90,000 of revenue and project funding plus further additional significant in-kind and sponsorship support, including volunteering time and donations (e.g. prizes, materials, discounts).
In addition, due to the above success raising capital monies, there has been a certain staff focus on infrastructure development. This obviously includes the research, development and implementation of our new and highly regarded skatepark. It also involves the further development of the enhanced building at the skatepark, which is currently concluding the planning process and ready for imminent implementation as an important weather proof associational space.
However, it is important to note that the infrastructure developments have been rooted in a response to expressed needs of young people and implemented with their active involvement.
The consequence of the above fundraising success and certain focus on infrastructure development has therefore meant, in the short term, less demand on the BSTC core Youth budget and the opportunity to roll underspend into a reserve for future use.
However, the current and future situation, covered by the five-year plan, has four key elements for consideration:
1) When the additional buildings are installed later this year/ early next year, that will be the end of a phase that has including infrastructure development. BSTC will have created some important associational spaces for future planned project implementation.
2) The next important stage is the recruitment of youth work staff and the need to agree sufficient staffing to fully utilise the facilities and deliver the various aspects of the current five- year plan.
3) It is important to note that the current budgetary constraints on South Gloucestershire Council grants and other funding bodies, means that it is/ will be increasingly difficult to draw drawn significant external funding at the levels we have done in the last few years.
4) Therefore, the projected necessary staffing and project costs will require both the current projected core Youth budget and some potential annual draw down from Youth reserves (see table), plus whatever, external funding we can attract.

The Precept and LCTR figures are based upon approved figures provided by Sth Glos in January 2016. The precept was approved by Council in November 2015 with final approval in January 2016.
The Precept and LCTR figures are based upon approved figures provided by Sth Glos in Dec 16. The final precept was approved by Council January 2017 with a 0.5% increase (equivalent to 58p per band D property p/a).
This projection assumes a 0% precept increase for 2018/19 and a Sth Glos projected tax base and projected reduced LCTR for 2018/19. - These assumptions will be considered by SGC & BSTC in January 2018 when finalised figures are available
This projection assumes a 0% precept increase for 2019/20 and + a Sth Glos projected tax base and projected reduced LCTR for 2019/20- These assumptions will be considered by SGC & BSTC in January 2019 when finalised figures are available
This projection assumes a 0% precept increase for 2020/21 and + Sth Glos projected tax base for 2020/21 + SGC projection of a 0 LCTR - These assumptions will be considered by Council in January 2020 when finalised figures are available
This projection assumes a 0% precept increase for 2021/22 and + Sth Glos projected tax base for 2020/21 c/fwd + SGC projected 0 LCTR - These assumptions will be considered by Council in January 2021 when finalised figures are available
NOTE
This projection is partly based upon estimated annual percentage increases and as a living document does not represent a firm future position or intention. Council carefully consider the full budget position on an annual basis prior to approval and use this document as a guideline only to ensure that Council's aims and objectives are included within acceptable margins which would not produce large year end shortfalls. Any surplus funds remaining at year end are placed within the unallocated earmarked reserves in order to fund future projects or to subsidise future precept levels. It should also be noted that council are making the assumption, for this projection, that the Local Council Tax Grant will be withdrawn totally after 2019/20 in line with SGCs projected position.
