As detailed in the recommendation.

Councillor Thomas introduced the report which explained that following a successful expression of interest for Halkyn Mountain Common, Welsh Government (WG) had invited an application to their Sustainable Management Scheme to address the decline in grazing through appropriate vegetation and stock management. 

The project would also look to improve the management of recreational activities and encouraged activity to highlight the health and well-being benefits of the Common.  The submission deadline was 1^st September 2017 and the proposed scheme would run from 1^st January 2018 to 31^st March 2021 at a cost of £400,000.

                        Councillor Butler welcomed the report on the Special Area of Conservation which would be for the benefit of everybody.

RESOLVED:

That the collaborative initiative be noted and the grant application to Welsh Government’s Sustainable Management Scheme be supported.
