Proposals

Things the ward could decide to do, and the ledger of how it decided.

House rule — State the ask, the cost, and who pays before you ask for support. Objections stay published.

This board exists to build one thing: agency. Feed weight 70.

ProposalsExample

Put a tool library in the back room at the Methodist hall

Kearsley Methodist Church hall

The hall has a dry back room sitting empty four days a week. Proposal is a shared tool library — SDS drill, tile cutter, pressure washer, scaffold tower, strimmer — borrowed on a deposit, stored on a rack we build ourselves.

Cost below is the rack, the starting tools second-hand, and a year of insurance. Ongoing cost is nil if borrowing covers replacement. Objections stay published: if you think this competes with the hire shop on Bolton Road, say so here and it goes in the ledger.

The ask

Fund a shared tool library from the ward sponsorship pot, and ask the hall trustees for the back room.

Cost
£1,420
