Wandsworth Makes an Offer

Today Wandsworth Borough Council announced a proposal to offer BAC £85,000 funding in 2007/8 and 2008/9 subject to an agreement being reached between the council and BAC regarding a new lease on the Old Town Hall.

This updates the council’s former position, announced to BAC in a letter dated 8th January, in which the Council informed BAC of its intention to cut BAC’s funding from £100,000 per annum to nothing with effect from 1st April 2007, and charge the organisation over £270,000 annually in rent and running costs from May (see our story of 17th January).

The Council’s new proposal of the £85,000 funding will still result in BAC’s closure if the rent and running cost proposals of £270,000 proceed.

BAC is meeting the Council this week to discuss this matter further.
