form has been submitted and completed satisfactorily with all the questions answered. The<br />
<strong>Town</strong>'s contribution <strong>of</strong> $9,767 is based on the Reabold Tennis Club also contributing $9,767<br />
which is in accordance <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Town</strong>'s dollar for dollar Community Grant (Policy No. 2.1.15).<br />
Summary<br />
It is recommended that this project be given a B rating (Well planned and needed by<br />
applicant) as per the DSR rating chart. An effective and safe fence is important for Reabold<br />
Tennis Club. Having adequate and safe fencing will maximise the enjoyment <strong>of</strong> playing the<br />
game <strong>of</strong> tennis and possibly attract new members to the Club. Subject to funding, works will<br />
commence in November 2012.<br />
