This is a delegated decision following

Decision:
To enter into a grant agreement with the West
of England Combined Authority to receive £500,000 of
Investment Fund grant and use the grant funds to lead delivery of
the West of England Food and Drink Sector Initiative.
Alternative options considered:
Option 1 - The option not to enter into the
grant agreement and deliver the project was considered. Accepting
the grant and leading the initiative within the Council is expected
to benefit food and drink businesses and community kitchen venues
within the City. The costs will be fully met from external funding
with no contribution required from the Council. This option was
