Decision Maker: Assistant Director - Resources (Environment)
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The acceptance of the grant of £324,956
from Yorkshire Water is approved.
It will:
• allow continuation of the existing partnership delivery
approach between the Nidderdale National Landscape team and
Yorkshire Water
• fund 100% of the costs of the Beyond Nature Farming Officer
role
• enable the on-going delivery of farm conservation on
Yorkshire Water farm holdings in Nidderdale National Landscape,
which is a key strategic priority as identified in our Management
Plan.
No alternatives have been considered as this
funding provides a clear mechanism to fully-fund the Beyond Nature
Farming Officer role, who delivers an important part of the
Nidderdale National Landscape team’s work. No alternative
sources of funding are available and if the grant was not accepted
then it would not be possible to continue this role and the
valuable conservation work it delivers.
