The Chairperson withdrew from the room for the discussion on the application from the Port Chalmers Golf Club. Consideration was given to the applications for funding from: · Ravensbourne School who applied for $10,000 towards the creation of a flexible learning space and refurbishment of dated classroom interior. · Port Chalmers Golf Club who applied for $300.00 towards the purchase of a new chest freezer for the community kitchen. · Punakaiki Productions who applied for $1,500.00 towards post production funding for a short film.

A discussion took place on the various applications. In regards to the application from the Ravensbourne School members felt that the project should be funded by the Ministry of Education. However, the School was welcome to put in a funding application for another project, which was more of a community project.
It was noted that Punakaiki Productions was a local initiative which supported local business as well as endorsing a local attraction.
